Answer: The video shows the plant reacting to external stimuli. Humans also react to many types of external stimuli. If someone touches us when we’re not expecting it, we jump. If we put a hand on something hot, we snatch it away. When it’s cold outside, our bodies shiver and our skin turns cold. When we walk into the sunlight after being in the shade, we tend to close our eyes or squint.
Answer:
Astrocytes
Explanation:
Astrocytes are the most abundant cells in the central nervous system that twine around nerve cells supporting the brain and spinal cord. They perform many functions; such as providing the nuerons with nutrients, control the blood brain barrrier and blood flow. Astrocytes are basically responsible for maintaining the central nervous system homeostasis.
Answer:
Explanation:Twenty fruit flies are placed in each of four glass tubes. The tubes are sealed. Tubes I and II are partially covered with black paper; Tubes III and IV are not covered. The tubes are placed as shown. Then they are exposed to blue light for five minutes. The number of flies in the uncovered part of each tube is shown in the drawing.
These data show that these flies respond to (respond means move to or away from):
Answer:
The scaling exponent will be 0.75
Explanation:
According to a famous article by Max Kleiber*, the scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals Pmetab (measured in kcal/day) with the body mass Mb (measured in kilograms) is P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .
What is the scaling exponent (the quantity x in a scaling law A = cMbx) for the specific metabolic rate as a function of the animal’s body mass?
he scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals P=kcal/day
Mb=body mass in kilograms
Comparing
P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .
with A = cMb^x
the scaling exponent will be 0.75
metabolic rate is the energy(in kilojoule) consumed at rest. it accounts for the highest amount of energy a body consumes daily
Answer:
All crosses and proportions, genotypes and phenotypes are attached.
Explanation:
a. Within living organisms, staining is a characteristic governed by a polygenic inheritance, which means that there is more than one gene involved in the staining process. as you already know, each gene has two alleles, if a trait is controlled by 2 genes, it means that we will have 4 alleles at the crosses.
From the description between dominance and recessivity between the alleles that control the colors of the pepper, shown in the question above, we can see that for the crossing between a red pepper and a green pepper, being able to generate a completely orange offspring, it would be necessary that the genotype of the parent peppers was: Red: RGRG, green: rgrg.
This would generate an orange-colored RrGg offspring, as you can see at the F1 crossing.
b. When individuals of F1 offspring are crossed, the combination of alleles and the determination of genotypes and phenotypes becomes much more complex, because instead of 4 alleles, we will have the combination of 16 alleles among themselves. Once again we will need to rely on the description of dominance and recessivity shown in the question above, so that from the crossing between the alleles of each gene, we can reach a conclusion, as you can see in the F2 crossing.
