Answer:
Does fertilizer help a plant grow taller?
Explanation:
Every experiment begins with an observation, which then leads to a scientific question that can be tested. In this question, a student measures and records the growth (in height) of two flowering plants every other day for 20 days. He then waters each flowering plants with same amount of water (200mL) but adds 10mL fertilizer to only one group of flowering plant.
This experimental set up implies that fertilizer is the independent variable or manipulated variable of the experiment while the dependent/measured variable is the growth (height) of plants.
N.B: 200mL of water is a constant or controlled variable
Hence, based on the identification of the independent and dependent variables, it can be said that the student is testing IF fertilizer will improve the growth in height of the flowering plants, hence, the scientific question will be: DOES FERTILIZER HELP A PLANT GROW TALLER?

6. primary spermatocyte: diploid
7. microsporocyte: diploid
8. oogonium: diploid
9. megaspore: haploid
10. spermatogonium: diploid
Your answer
Explanation:
1. Microspore is a haploid spore produced by mostly ferns. They give rise to male gametophytes, which in turn produces sperm cell.
2. Polar body is one of the haploid cells that forms during the process of oogenesis (gametogenesis), specifically when the primary oocyte undergoes an unequal division.
3. A spermatid is an haploid cell that arises from the second meiotic division of the spermatogonia.
4. The ovum is the female gamete of most sexual reproducing organisms. It is also called the EGG CELL. It is haploid.
5. Secondary oocyte are haploid cells that results from the meiotic division of the primary oocyte.
6. Primary oocyte is the diploid cell that starts the meiotic division during oogenesis. It arises from the mitotic division of the oogonium.
7. The microsporocyte is the diploid cell that undergoes meiotic division to produce microspores in ferns and other land plants.
8. Oogonium are the diploid stem cells that initially starts the oogenesis process. It undergoes mitosis to form the primary oocyte, which divides meiotically till the ovum is formed.
9. Megaspore is a haploid spore that gives rise/germinates to the female gametophyte in ferns. The female gametophyte produces the haploid eggs.
10. Spermatogonium are undifferentiated stem cells that produces the sperm cells in males via the process of spermatogenesis. The spermatogonia is diploid in nature

B) Decomposers would become the primary energy source. C) The number of primary consumers would decrease dramatically. D) The energy flow into the food web would decrease or increase along with changing populations of producers. THANK YOU !!! :-)
Answer:
If the populationsl of producers in an ecosystem became unstable the energy flow into the food web would decrease or increase along with changing populations of producers.
Answer:
Answer: option D.
Explanation:
Hey, there!
Reason: The reason is, when the number of producers are unstable, the flow to enegry from abiotic components to biotic components will be destructed. There will not be proper flow of enegry in whole ecosystem, which usally changes the flow of enegry as per the number of producers.

A mutation occurs, and cytosine is replaced with adenine. What impact do you think this will have on the DNA structure?
Adenine is larger than Cytosine base pair which make it unable to base pair properly with the guanine on the opposing strand. This will cause the DNA to bulge.
What is Mutation?Mutation refers to a sudden change. It is a change in the nucleic acid sequence of an organism's genome. This results in changes to the cell's DNA sequence that can be caused by mistakes during cell division, or by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment.
There are two major types of mutations which are:-
1. Germline mutations
This type of mutation occur in gametes
2. Somatic mutations
This type of mutation occur in other cells of the body.
There are also some types of mutations that are found. They are
1. Base substitutions
2. Deletions
3. Insertions.
Thus, Adenine is larger than Cytosine base pair which make it unable to base pair properly with the guanine on the opposing strand. This will cause the DNA to bulge.

As the adrenal gland releases glucocorticoids, which of the following effects may be observed? a) Increased blood levels of amino acids
b) Decreased blood pressure and volume
c) Decrease in immune system function
d) Lipid breakdown in the liver will increase
e) Increased water absorption in the kidney
f) Increased blood glucose levels
Answer:
The correct option is F) Increased blood glucose levels
Explanation:
The release of glucocorticoids into the body is part of the body's chemical process for managing stress and ultimately prepares the body for fight or flight.
The body anticipates that it may consume additional fuel/energy during elevated stress levels, it therefore through the adrenal cortex which is situated above the kidneys, sends glucocorticoids into the body.
The glucocorticoids trigger the body's metabolism with regard to breaking down stored fuel in order to produce the required energy that it needs.

g What are the three basic assumptions of Darwinian evolution? Group of answer choices Presence of phenotypic variation, some phenotypic variation due to genetic variation, the given trait has an impact on fitness Presence of phenotypic variation, environmental variation, the given trait has no impact on fitness Presence of phenotypic variation, environmental heritability, the given trait has an impact on fitness Presence of phenotypic variation, trait present in only the mitochondrial DNA, the given trait has an impact on fitness
Answer:
1- Presence of phenotypic variation
2- some phenotypic variation due to genetic variation
3- the given trait has an impact on fitness
Explanation:
The evolutionary theory by natural selection proposed by Darwin in his publication “On the origin of species” (1859) is based on a series of assumptions that enable to understand the amazing biodiversity on the Earth. First, individuals are not identical among them, i.e., there exists variation in the traits among the members of a given population, species, etc. Second, phenotypic variation leads to differential survival and reproduction of the organisms that are best fitted to the environment (i.e., competence among the members of the population). Finally, phenotypic traits are passed from generation to generation (i.e., phenotypic variation is inheritable), thereby favoring offspring from parents more adapted to the environment.
Explain, in your own words, how you would use the light microscope to view a wet mount of a protist, assuming the microscope is plugged in and that the light source is on. Please use at least the following 9 structures in your description and underline them as you use them: stage, stage clip(s), stage knob(s), eyepiece, scanning objective lens, low power objective lens, high power objective lens, coarse focus knob, and fine focus knob.
Answer:
Please find the detailed explanation/description on how to use the light microscope to view a wet mount of a protist. The 9 structures mentioned in the question are in CAPS.
Explanation:
- Firstly, the slide containing the wet mount of the protist is prepared and placed at the centre of a lowered STAGE. The STAGE CLIPS over the sides of the slide are used to hold it in place.
- The revolving turret or nosepiece is turned so that the LOWEST POWER OBJECTIVE LENS is in position i.e. directly above the sample/slide. The SCANNING OBJECTIVE LENS, the lowest objective lens with power of 4x is used initially.
- The slide is viewed through the EYEPIECE, and the image is brought into focus using the STAGE KNOBS.
- The COARSE FOCUS KNOB is turned until the protist on the slide is brought into broad focus. The FINE FOCUS KNOB is then used to bring the image on the slide into sharp focus.
N.B: The OBJECTIVE LENS should not touch the cover slip on the slide during this process.
- When the protist on the slide is clear using lowest power objective lens, the revolver turret can be rotated to allow HIGHER POWER OBJECTIVE LENS.
- Due to higher magnification of the HIGH POWER OBJECTIVE LENS, the protist might need to be refocused using the FOCUS KNOBS.
Answer:
A light microscope is an instrument commonly used in the laboratory which makes use of light rays for viewing and enlarging smaller objects/organisms.
The wet protist is first of all put on the slide then the slide is placed on the Stage which is the flat podium where the slides containing the samples are put for viewing.
The Stage clips are then used to hold the slide containing the wet protist in proper place for a better viewing result.
The Coarse and fine focus knobs are used to adjust the stage by raising and lowering it .
The major difference is that the coarse focus knobs move more rapidly and is used with a low power objective lens while the fine focus knobs move less rapidly and are to be carefully controlled as it functions with a high power objective lens
The Eyepiece which is also referred to as the Ocular lens is then used to view the protist.
However, the view can then be adjusted with the Scanning objective lens which provides an image of the protist with the least magnification of 4X when compared to other lenses.
The low power objective lens and high power objective lens have magnifications of 10X and 40X respectively and can be used to view smaller structures of the protists which the naked eyes and scanning objective lens can't view.

2. What structures or abilities are essential to the success of organisms who do not use
photosynthesis?
Answer:
Ability to perform locomotion with their legs
Explanation:
Plants and animals are two distinct species of organisms. Plants are capable of using photosynthesis to obtain their food due to the unique structures that can capture light energy in their cells (autotrophic). Animals, on the other hand, are heterotrophic i.e. cannot perform photosynthesis and therefore, rely on other organisms for food.
Since animals depends on eating other organisms to obtain food/energy, their possession of LEGS or ability to LOCOMOTE is very instrumental to their success as non-photosynthetic or heterotrophic organisms. This enables them leave one position in search for food and resources
Move/chase is essential to the success of organisms that do not use photosynthesis.
What is photosynthesis?Photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions by which autotrophic organisms such as plants can produce energy and structures by using solar radiation.
Heterotrophic organisms such as animals need to move in order to obtain their food.It is for that reason that heterotrophic organisms exhibit different structures to be motile (e.g., flagella).In conclusion, move/chase is essential to the success of organisms that do not use photosynthesis.

What is the procedure to use the codon?The procedure to use this codon table for the code CAU, we first find C on the left side which is A on the top, as well as U on the right. When this has been found, the amino acid will be given to the right of the codon anf just from this table, we can find that CAU has the codon for the Histidine.
A silent mutation has been known as the mutation that has been occured and there will be no detectable change in that particular amino acid sequence. The mutation that has been occurs must still produce the same amino acid in this case, Histidine must still be produced.
If we look at the particular table, there has only one other codon that gives the Histidine amino acid. This codon has CAC. So we know that the original codon is the CAU and the other codon is CAC - and at last we can say that the third nucleotide in the codon can be mutated from a uracil (U) to a cytosine (C) and still produce histidine, causing a silent mutation.
Therefore, option A is the correct option.

How might factors like hormones, chemicals, and the weather influence criminal behavior?
Answer:
These substances alter signaling pathways associated with cognitive functions
Explanation:
It is well known that cortisol hormone is secreted by the adrenal glands in stressful situations. In criminals and convicts, constant and high levels of cortisol have been observed, thereby it is believed that this hormone is associated with criminal behaviors through a 'constant stress-stimulation state'. Moreover, addictive drugs are known to literally destroy the brain. These drugs bind to hormone-like receptors involved in feedback responses. In consequence, after drug consumption, neural pathways will be altered and cognitive functions will be harmed. Finally, evidence linking wheater with criminal behavior is not conclusive.
