The major means of propulsion through the alimentary canal is peristalsis. True False

Biology
1 answer:
aalyn [17]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Peristalsis is the wave-like motion of the walls of the alimentary canal that allow food to move along the lumen of the alimentary canal towards the posterior (anus). These waves are powered by the contraction and relaxation of the smooth muscles.

Punnett square are used to show possible combinations of alleles or to predict the probability of a trait occurring in offspring
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Pp.

The genotype of one parent is PP. Thus, it will produce only one type of allele, that is, P.

Similarly, the genotype of another parent is pp. Thus, it will produce only one type of gamete, that is, p.

The cross would produce offspring with only one type of genotype, that is, heterozygous Pp.

The phenotype of all the offspring will be purple as it is a dominant trait.

Both the full body plate type and the half body plate trait are also present in an ocean near the lake. Where would you expect a
meriva

Answer:

In the ocean

Explanation:

Ecological divergence leads to selection of essential traits against migrants and hybrid species. The full body plate type traits requires attention for occurrence  in an environment which is free from issues such as resource limitation or predator attacks. In vast ocean spaces , resources are not a limiting factor in ocean and also there is no risk of predators as there is huge chunk of space, thus, full body plate type will occur in higher number in the ocean.

hope it helps you..

A number of experiments have demonstrated that areas of the genome that are relatively inert transcriptionally are resistant to
algol [13]

Answer:

The DNA strands are not free in the nucleus, but forming a compact structure called chromatin along special proteins, known as histones. The chromatin structure has an important role in gene expression, as the level of compaction and the histone modification act as signals for the transcription machinery

In order to be transcribed, different areas in the genome need to unfold from the histone proteins, so the RNA polymerase can access the DNA.

That means, <u>that DNA sequences that transcribe at high rate, are more often unfold from the histones, and more exposed to other proteins to bind them. Particularly, those areas are more sensitive to the attack of endonucleases, such as DNAse I.</u>

As a consequence, an assay of DNAse I digestion can be used to identify highly sensitive or resistant to DNAse cleavage areas in the genome, and therefore serve as an insight to which sequences are more and less transcriptionally active.

Explain the concept of growth using these terms: differentiate, meristem, elongation, and vascular cambium.
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: Well for one, Differentiate is when a cell matures and is used in a specific function. Meristem is a cell which never differeates and constantly divides so it is a mitotic cell. Elongation is the plant growing length wise therefore the meristem elongates the plant. Vascular cambium is the cambium which starts out in vascular bundles of the plant and then grows to form a ring inside the stem of plants that live for more than year- it causes and increase in thickness of the stem and branches.

hope this helped luv :)
