You complete an experiment measuring the spread of the Cordyceps fungus across a forest environment. You measure the amount of g

rowths you observe on the ground in a 1 acre area. After evaluating your experiment, you find that fungus frequently grows long fibers underground and only sprout reproductive parts above ground. How might this affect your data and/or conclusion?
A. The data is accurately measured so this does not affect the conclusion.
B. The data will have many outliers because of the underground growth and will not be accurate.
C. The data does not take into account underground growth and the actual area of fungus spread may be larger, so the original conclusion of the experiment is not accurate.
D. The data should be recounted to include the underground growth and the outliers will make the data more reliable

This seems to be the best answer: C. The data does not take into account underground growth and the actual area of fungus spread may be larger, so the original conclusion of the experiment is not accurate.

Answer: C. The data does not take into account underground growth and the actual area of fungus spread may be larger, so the original conclusion of the experiment is not accurate.

Explanation:

A fungus is a saprophytic organism which feeds over dead and decaying organic matter generated after the death of plants, animals and other living beings. The fungus exhibit a vegetative body which lies above the surface of ground which is responsible for reproduction by sexual and asexual modes. It exhibit thread like structure called as hyphae. The hyphae is penetrating in nature that penetrates the layers of soil so as to derive nourishment from the dead and decaying matter.

According to the given situation, the data will be incorrect to answer the fact that the total area covered by the fungus as the fungus not only grows above the ground but also covers the area underground. Hence, C is the correct option.

Which of these conditions indicate positive feedback has occurred?
aleksklad [387]

Answer;

A) Blood pressure decreases greatly; blood flow to the heart is inadequate, and blood pressure decreases.

Explanation;

-With negative feedback, the output reduces the original effect of the stimulus. While in a positive feedback system, the output enhances the original stimulus.

-Negative feedback is the most commonly used feedback loop in the body. Negative feedback is used to negate or counteract a stimulus without completely eradicating it.

-One key difference between the two feedback is that positive feedback loops are used to eradicate a stimulus. Another key difference is that responses through positive feedback become more amplified over time. So once a stimulus activates a positive feedback loop it is not turned off until the stimulus is completely removed.

Advantages of amoeba over lizard cell
steposvetlana [31]

Amoebas are single-celled organisms, which means that they are composed of just one cell. Each amoeba is a cell capable of performing all living functions by itself. They can reproduce asexually. They are protozoans with no fixed shape. Most have no hard parts and look like blobs of jelly.

A micrograph of dividing cells from a rat, a diploid animal, shows a cell where 21 pairs of sister chromatids are being pulled a
Elanso [62]

Answer:

<h2>b) Anaphase II of meiosis </h2>

Explanation:

1. Meiosis is the process of cell division in which one cell is divided into four daughter cell, each contains equal number of chromosome, half the number of chromosomes as compared to parental cell.

2. In meiosis I, DNA duplication occurs but the sister chromatids are not separated, only homologous pair of chromosomes are separated, so this is called reductional division.

3. In meiosis II, chromatids are pulled apart and and are separated into different chromosomes, so it is called equational division. There is no DNA duplication in meiosis II.

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.  

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.  

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.

Which two phrases describe a situation that will cause a stationary object to start moving?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

A .a net force greater than zero

B. Unbalanced Force

Explanation:

A .When the resultant force on an object is zero, it will remain at rest if it is at rest, or continue to move in a straight line at a constant velocity if it is in motion. So , the answer will be a net force greater than zero .

B . An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. An unbalanced force is an unopposed force that causes a change in motion. A net force = unbalanced force. So , the answer will be unbalanced forces .
