Answer: False

Explanation:

The axis of rotation of earth is not parallel to its orbit. It is slightly tilted. It moves or rotates in the eastward side in a prograde motion.

When the earth is viewed from the north pole star Polaris then it turns Counterclockwise.

It rotates in 24 hours with respect to the sun but with respect to other planets it is a bit less. The rotation of the earth is slowing with time which states that the modern days are longer 1,7 milliseconds per century.

Answer:

This is a false statement. So it is F

Explanation: The axis of the earth is an imaginary line. It makes an angle 66 1/2 degree with its orbital plane. So the earth is tilting with orbital plane, not in parallel position. The plane formed by the orbit is known as the orbital plane. Due to this tilting position the poles have 6 months day and 6 months night.

Question: Jezelyn needs to create a project that shows reproductive isolation in action and decides to make a video. Which of the following would make the best project?

a video that shows a large river that has penguin populations on both sides

a video that shows penguin species that have different mating dances a video that shows

a penguin that is laying eggs a video that shows penguins in a tidal pool and an open ocean

Answer:

The right option is a video that shows penguin species that have different mating dances.

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation is the inability of animals of closely-related species to interbreed with one another successfully as a result of various differences which can be ecological, behavioral, psychological, or genetic. From the question given above, the difference in the mating dances of the penguin species will not allow the animals to unite and mate. This condition describes reproductive isolation. Reproductive isolation is caused by mating differences, sterility or environmental barriers that eventually lead to the adaptive splitting into two species. However, reproductive isolation is not sufficient but internal barriers to gene flow are required for speciation to evolve.

Forskolin is a drug used by scientists to render adenylyl cyclase (AC) constitutively (always) active. What will this do to to P
Paul [167]

Answer:

Both the PKA and IP3 levels increases. Hence, the correct answer is a and b.

Explanation:

Forskolin refers to a drug that increases the levels of cAMP or cyclic AMP by stimulating the enzyme adenylyl cyclase. The cAMP is an essential secondary messenger that ensures proper biological response of cells to hormones and other signals and also takes part in communication between the cells.  

When Forskolin increases the levels of cAMP, it will stimulate the enzyme PKA or protein kinase A and at the same time also enhances the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ and IP3 (inositol 1,2,5 triphosphate).

Renew an external counter pulsation device, works almost like a second _____, pumping blood througout the body. According to Sir
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

heart, get rid of toxins/flush out toxins

Explanation:

Project Renew:

  • Project Renew is an ECP (external counter pulsation) brand developed by  Innovations Ventures LLC which is owned by Manoj Bhargava, a businessman and philanthropist.
  • External counter pulsation is a device that pumps blood from the legs to the core body while the heart rests. Therefore, this device acts like an auxiliary heart. It provides the heart a chance to rest, thus, reducing its work load.
  • The idea behind project renew is not only to aid circulation but to ensure proper excretion of toxins from the blood. An auxiliary circulation system would ultimately lead to a better detoxification system.

A researcher is examining the response of corn to herbivory by white-tailed deer. She sets up a corn field with a very high fenc
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The herbivory by the white-tailed deer

Explanation:

The independent variable can be defined as the variable that who's values do not depend on those of another.

The independent variable in this case is the herbivory by the white-tailed deer which is divided into two categories.

The dependent variables is the response of the corn to the independent variable which are measurements to be taken as shown in the question; the height of the corn plants and the number of ears or corn each plant produces.
