In paragraph form (automatic 1-pt deduction if not), explain the evolutionary benefits of sexual reproduction as a means of increasing variation. Be sure to include (a) at least two ways in which sexual reproduction impacts genotype (i.e. genetic effects), and (b) two ways in which sexual reproduction may affect phenotype (i.e. trait effects).
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
According to the theory of evolution,species which are better adapted to their environment tend to survive and reproduce in a population passing on these favourable characteristics to their offsprings.
During sexual reproduction, genes can be arranged in new ways from chromosomal crossing over and recombination. This introduces new gene combinations(genotype) and ultimately variation in the population.
This variation may also lead to the observation of new phenotypes in the population.
Describe two specialized cells in the respiratory system that enable the lungs to function?
Answer:
Respiratory epithelial cells line the respiratory tract from trachea to bronchi into bronchioles and alveolar sacs. ... The goblet cells produce and secrete mucous to trap pathogens and debris within the airway tract. Basal cells are progenitor cells that differentiate into cells types found within the epithelium.

It is believed that the ratio of cyclic electron transport to Z-scheme photosynthesis changes in response to metabolic demands. If a plant were actively engaged in a large amount of reductive biosynthesis, requiring NADPH, how would it alter these processes compared to a plant just performing the Calvin cycle to produce glucose
Answer:
The correct answer is (b) More Z-scheme photosynthesis, less cyclic photophosphorylation
Explanation:
Z-scheme is the schematic flow of the electrons from water to NADP+ and as it connects the two different photosystems that look like z in the diagram it is termed as Z-scheme of photosynthesis. The ratio of cyclic electron transport to Z-scheme photosynthesis alters as per the metabolic requirements. In the question, it is given that If a plant were actively engaged in a large amount of reductive biosynthesis, requiring NADPH, then it will acqiuire more z-scheme photosynthesis compared to a plant just performing the Calvin cycle to produce glucose.
Answer: More Z-scheme photosynthesis, less cyclic photophosphorylation
The fruit of the mistletoe, a parasitic angiosperm, is a one-seeded berry. In members of the genus Viscum, the outside of the seed is viscous (sticky), which permits the seed to adhere to surfaces such as the branches of host plants or the beaks of birds. What should be expected of the fruit if the viscosity of Viscum seeds is primarily an adaptation for dispersal rather than an adaptation for infecting host plant tissues
Answer:
We should expect that the fruits should grow in population and spread more easily.
Explanation:
Like the relationship between bamboo and pandas, the relationship between the seeds and the beaks of birds should allow the seeds to spread to other areas more easily that would otherwise be a very gradual process if the seeds did not evolve its viscous ability.
In 1970, Frye and Edidin published research describing the mobility of plasma membrane proteins. They fused mouse and human cells together, creating a hybrid cell, and then examined the localization of mouse and human proteins over time. Initially mouse and human proteins were each restricted to one-half of the heterokaryon, but over time the mouse and human proteins mixed, with each being present over the entire cell surface. What technique did Frye and Edidin likely use to examine the mouse and human proteins
Answer:
The answer is "fluorescent microscopy".
Explanation:
A microscope featuring fluorescence is just the same as a conventional light microscope with additional features. Conventional microscopy employs visible light (400-700 nanometers) to illuminate and generate an enlarged image data. Scientists use this highly sensitive, precise, dependable, extensively to see the location of chemicals in tissues and macrophages in organs.
You are an evolutionary entomologist. You have observed beetles that can raise their abdomens and give off a defensive chemical that generally repels predators. You discover a new species of beetle that raises its abdomen in a threatening way similar to the first species, but no defensive chemical is given off. You are most likely to characterize this defensive strategy as a form of ____. Group of answer choices
Answer:
mimicry.
Explanation:
You are most likely to characterize this defensive strategy as a form of mimicry.
eople that have a single allele (gene copy) for sickle cell anemia are typically not sick from the disease and are said to be carriers of sickle cell trait. These people will more often live in the malaria belt of sub-Saharan Africa. The most likely explanation for this is ________. malaria is a cause of sickle cell trait people with sickle cell trait have a better chance of surviving malaria sickle cell trait is passed on to the biting mosquitoes as malaria There is no correlation between a single allele for the pathology and the ability to survive or fight malaria.
Answer: people with sickle cell trait have a better chance of surviving malaria.
Explanation:
Malaria is a very prevalent disease in the malaria belt of Sub-Saharan Africa which includes much of western and central Africa. The people here have therefore grown to have better immunity to malaria by developing the sickle cell trait.
This has helped them survive both malaria and sickle cell anemia which doesn't affect them even though they carry the sickle cell trait.

Hi, guys so I'm doing an experiment and need help finding out the types of variables. In my experiment, I am using a narrow straw, a wide straw, and some colored water to find out how different variables affect capillary action. I'm trying to find out what is the controlled variable, independent variable, and dependent variable.
Answer:
Controlled variable=coloured water
Dependant variable=amount of water
Independant variable=narrow and wide straw
Explanation:
Have a nice day
Answer:
The controlled variable is straws. Independent it the water and dependent is the capillary action.
Explanation:
The Independent variable is the water because its not chaninging thorughout the experiment and has no conqueunces on the other varibales. The controlled is the straws because you are controlling the different diameters in which the straws are (narrow/wide). Then as you change your controlled variable your dependent varible will change- which is the affect on capillary action.

Explanation:
In the Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experiment, the transforming extract from virulent bacteria was treated with DNase, RNase, or protease before being mixed with nonvirulent bacteria. The appropriate control for this experiment is to treat the transforming extract from heat-killed virulent bacteria with:
Answer:
Nothing
Explanation:
A. Control variables generally entail little or no system change. To see if the method worked, the researchers required a positive control in which the heat-killed virulent bacteria invariably transformed the non-virulent microorganisms. This positive control involves adding "nothing" to both the heat-killed virulent bacteria before mixing them with the non-virulent bacteria.
2) ¿Cuál de los siguientes hechos no es una evidencia de una reacción química? a) Presencia de un catalizador b) Cambio de color d) Liberación de gas
Answer:
a) Presencia de un catalizador
Explanation:
Los dos tipos de cambios que experimentan las sustancias en la química son cambios químicos y físicos.
Un cambio físico es un cambio es un cambio en el que la sustancia cambia en su apariencia o su forma de una manera que es reversible y en la que no se forma una nueva sustancia.
Un cambio químico es aquel en el que hay un cambio en las sustancias presentes y se forma una nueva sustancia.
La evidencia de que ha tenido lugar un cambio químico incluye
1) La formación de un precipitado a partir de la mezcla de sustancias.
2) Un cambio en el color de las sustancias.
3) Un cambio en el olfato (que desprende un olor) o en el sabor.
4) La sustancia produce luz (brilla)
5) El volumen total cambia
6) Cambio de temperatura (la mezcla se calienta o enfría)
Por lo tanto, la presencia de un catalizador, que es una sustancia que no participa en una reacción pero aumenta la velocidad de reacción, no es evidencia de una reacción química.
