<span>For the first step, you must isolate the cells from the media. The cells contain the DNA so you keep the cells and pellet. The next step would be a cell lysis which causes the cells to open and the DNA to come out. At this point you would keep the supernatant, as the pellet is the cell membrane and other parts of the cell. The chelex is to bind to transition metal ions. This would cause and DNases in the cell to become inactive because the metal ion is their cofactor. The pellet in this case would contain the chelex and the DNA would still be in the supernatant.</span>

The diploid number of chromosomes in the mustard plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, is 10. Knowing this, answer the following question
Maslowich

Answer:

10 chromosomes

Explanation:

<u>Ten (10) chromosomes</u> would be found in each cell of Arabidopsis thaliana during prophase.

The prophase stage represents the first stage of the mitotic division immediately after the interphase. A diploid cell has 2n number of chromosomes and the ploidy level of a cell remains intact throughout the interphase to the prophase stage of mitosis.

<u>At the prophase, the chromosomes of a cell only condense and become visible under the microscope. Each chromosome is seen as being consisting of two sister chromatids joined together by a structure known as the centromere. </u>

<em>Hence, the number of chromosomes in the cells of Arabidopsis thaliana would remain the same even at the prophase stage of mitosis.</em>

In recent years, scientists have collected data on populations of Adelie and Gentoo penguins. Adelie penguins are ice dependent.
wolverine [178]

Answer: Cant give a solid answer if theres no graph attached.

Explanation: My guess if it was a downward trend in population numbers with a downward trend in ice cap sizes or something, it would support global climate change because it shows the shrinkage of the population that is resulting from melting ice caps.

A study is being done to test the affects of habitat space on the size of fish populations. different sized aquariums are set up
qwelly [4]
Although not specified, I am assuming that you want to identify the different variables and groups of this case. To answer this, the different typical factors that make up an experimental set up include: 1) dependent and 2) independent variables; 3) controlled variables; as well as the 4) control and 5) experimental group.

The dependent variable in this case is: the size of the population. While the independent variable is: the habitat space. Controlled variables in this experiment include: type and amount of food, cleanliness of the aquarium, and water temperature. The experimental group are simply the fish being observed. There are no controlled groups in this case depending on your definition. Controlled groups are usually the reference point or standard in experimental setups but this experiment wants to look at the differences of the goldfish with each other and not necessarily to a one particular goldfish and hence no controlled group.

The dependent variable is called as such because it is the one that changes depending on the factors given and is usually the one being observed. The independent variable is named as such because it remains the same throughout the experiment.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1. They make up part of a negative feedback system that promotes insect population growth.

Explanation:

If the Martin becomes extinct, it will cause an increase in insect population, as there is no predator to maintain the population. A population growth of insects would be a problem as it will destroy crops and agriculture.
