Anthropologists have been studying the role of soybean curd and related products in the culture of Hong Kong. The researchers interview people about how frequently they eat soybean products, where they eat them (at home or in restaurants), and during what time of day they eat them. The researchers also ask people about how they prepare soybean products, where they obtain soybean products, and any beliefs they might have about the soybean products (such as their nutritional value). The data are used to assess the role of soybean products in the culture. The researchers are also considering how their findings relate to global soybean consumption patterns.

false
O true
HURRRRYYYp
Answer:
The first statement is true, while the second statement is false.
Explanation:
Every living organism needs a particular amount of food in order to be able to survive. Each species though has its own different requirements, and there are great variations that occur because of size, lifestyle, is the organism cold-blooded or warm-blooded, etc.
In this case, we have to examples. In the first one, a single mouse needs 4 square meters of grass in order to stay healthy. In order to get the amount of grass needed for fifty mice, we just need to multiply the number of mice by the amount of grass needed for one of them:
50 x 4 = 200
We got 200, meaning that 200 square meters of grass will support a population of 50 mice.
In the other case, a single snake needs 10 mice in order to stay healthy. To get a result how many mice are needed for 10 snakes, again we just need to multiply the number of snakes by the number of mice a single snake needs:
10 x 10 = 100
We got 100, meaning that 10 snakes need 100 mice in order to stay healthy.

This scientist looked at cork and used the term "cells" to describe what he saw *
Answer:
Robert Hooke.
Explanation:
Robert Hooke is a British scientist and he was the scientist that looked at cork and used the term "cells" to describe what he saw in 1665.
A cell can be defined as the fundamental or basic functional, structural and smallest unit of life for all living organisms. Some living organisms are unicellular while others are multicellular in nature.
A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.
Generally, cells have the ability to independently replicate themselves. In a cell, the "workers" that perform various functions or tasks for the survival of the living organism are referred to as organelles and they include cell membrane, nucleus, golgi apparatus, cytoplasm, ribosome, lysosome, chromosome, etc.
Answer:
Hooke the first was correct

2. Honey Bees may be headed for extinction.
Why do you think this is happening? (Things
to think about: habitat destruction, erosion,
pollution, invasive species, human impact.)
Answer:
Well the most common is habittat destruction. With the number of humans only growing, more land is needed and habitat desturctions occur. Lack of food is also a problem, as some crops don’t grow as much so the bee’s food source is smaller which leaves thousands dead. Also if the food source doesn’t run out, there are pesticides sprayed and the bees will die if eaten one which the chemical properties in a pesticide will kill. Also if not used, littering, if you dump it into a water source, the water gets contaminated and the bees could die from that, or the water spreads ano the flower would receive this chemical property, which could kill the Bee’s food source, or the flower doesn’t die but when the bees consume it, the bee will die.
Answer:
honey bees Extinction types are parasites ,habitat loss ,and cell phones. but there two main types of parasites that are harming the honeybees are Vero mites and tracheal

Which hypothesis do the similarities in the bone arrangements support?
a. These organisms are members of the same species.
b. These organisms may have descended from the same ancestor.
c. These organisms have adaptations to survive in different environments.
d. These organisms all contain the same genetic information.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
A similarity in the arrangement of bones in organisms can be hypothesized to be an indication of the organisms descending from the same ancestor.
The similarity in the arrangement of bone in different organisms is one of the morphological evidence used to support the theory of organic evolution which says that all living organisms are of the same descent with modification from common ancestors.
The similarity in the arrangement of bones falls under homology. Homologous organs are similar in structures but different in functions. For example, the pentadactyl limbs of vertebrates. Mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians all have limbs that are built on a five-digit plan but the functions of the limb vary within and among different groups of vertebrates.
The color of a light wave is determined by its wavelength. On the COLOR tab, slowly drag the Light wavelength slider back and forth and observe the effect on oxygen production. How does the color of light affect the rate of photosynthesis
Answer:
The color of light determines how effective chlorophyll pigment will be at absorbing light.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a metabolic process that requires light, which is an electromagnetic radiation. Light on the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by wavelength. Each region/color of light occurs at a specific wavelength.
Hence, chlorophyll pigment, which is the major photosynthetic pigment effectively absorbs blue and red light in the visible light region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Hence, the rate of photosynthesis will be affected negatively if the color of light is not the one stated above.

If the fraction of base pairs devoted to protein-coding genes is the same as the fraction of the total genes that they represent, what is the average number of base pairs per protein-coding gene
[tex]\mathbf{Here \ is \ the \ missing \ part \ of \ the \ question} \\ \\ \mathbf{The \ genome \ of \ Escherichia \ coli \ consists \ of \ 4380 \ genes, \ encoding \ 4290} \\ \\ \mathbf{ proteins, \ in \ jus t \ 5175720 \ base \ pairs. \ What \ percent \ fraction \ of\ the} \\ \\ \mathbf{ Escherichia \ coli \ genes \ encode \ proteins?}[/tex]
Answer:
1182
Explanation:
From the information given:
Number of present genes = 4380
the total no. of protein-encoding = 4290
Total no. of base pairs = 5175720
The percentage fraction of genes encoding the protein is;
total no of protein-encoding gene/total no of present genes
[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{4290}{4380} = 0.9795}[/tex]
= 97.95%
The average number of base pairs per protein-coding gene is;
= total no. of base-pair/ no of present genes
[tex]\mathbf{ \dfrac{5175720}{4380} = 1181.6} \\ \\ \simeq \mathbf{1182}[/tex]

In the fourth century BC, Aristotle observed a phenomenon in which he saw a circular shadow on the Moon. He argued that Earth was a sphere based on this observation. What phenomenon caused the shadow on the Moon? *
a solar eclipse
a lunar eclipse
a spring equinox
a summer solstice
Answer:
a lunar eclipse
Explanation:
The shadow that Aristotle saw was caused by a lunar eclipse. At that time the sun, earth, and the moon nearly straight alignment caused the Earth's shadow to be reflected on the moon. This shadow is what ultimately led Aristotle to believe that the Earth was a sphere. This should not be confused with a solar eclipse which is similar but instead the sun, moon, and earth align in that order which causes the moon to completely block the sun to anyone on earth.
Mutations result in changes to genotype that can result in changes in phenotype. Explain how a mutation causes a change in the genotype of an organism AND may result in a change in the phenotype of an organism.
Answer:
A mutation can alter the structure/function of a particular protein, thereby also altering the phenotype resulting from this new variant
Explanation:
A mutation can be defined as a genetic change in the genome of an organism. Some mutations are capable of modifying the expression and/or structure of the proteins, while other mutations (known as silent mutations) have no effect on the resulting proteins. When mutations occur within the gene region encoding a protein (i.e., exons), they are potentially capable of producing a faulty protein. For example, a mutation can alter the Open Reading Frame (ORF) of the resulting protein, thereby inactivating it. The mutations that alter the structure and/or function of the protein can also alter the resulting phenotype associated with the expression of this protein. For example, a mutation within a gene that encodes a key enzyme can potentially alter the binding site of the protein, so the resulting mutated enzyme cannot bind to the substrate anymore. In consequence, this mutation alters the phenotype of the individual who is not more able to carry out the metabolic reaction catalyzed by the faulty enzyme.

a. cross between organisms that are the same for two traits
b. the cross was performed by Mendel using pure-breeding lines
c. cross between organisms that differ for three traits
d. cross between organisms that are the same for three traits
e. cross between organisms that differ for two traits
dihybrid cross trihybrid cross both none
Answer:
a. none
b dihybrid and trihybrid crosses (both)
c. trihybrid cross
d. none
e. dihybrid cross
Explanation:
A dihybrid cross can be defined as a mating experiment between two different varieties/lines that differ in two observed phenotypic traits, while a trihybrid cross is a cross between two varieties/lines that differ in three traits. For example, Mendel crossed two pea plants that differed in seed color (yellow and green) and seed shape (wrinkled and round). Mendel's experiments consisted of dihybrid and trihybrid crosses for different phenotypic traits. From these mating experiments, he observed dihybrid F1 plants produced 9:3:3:1 ratio of phenotypes in the F2 generation.

Explanation:
A biologist examines a series of cells and counts 160 cells in interphase, 20 cells in prophase, 6 cells in prometaphase, 2 cells in metaphase, 7 cells in anaphase, and 5 cells in telophase. The complete cell cycle requires 24 hours. Match the average duration to the appropriate cell cycle stage in these cells. M phase prophase metaphase telophase 4.8 hours 14.4 minutes 2.4 hours 36 minutes
Answer:
M phase: 4.8 hr
Prophase: 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 0.84 hr
Telophase: 0.6 hr
Explanation:
Mitosis, also known as M phase, is the process of nuclear division after interphase, which is followed by cytoplasmic division via cytokinesis. Mitosis can be subdivided into the following phases: Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. In this case, 160 cells are in interphase (for a total of 200 cells), thereby 40 cells are in mitosis >> 200 - 160 = 40 cells. Since the complete cell cycle requires 24 hours, it is possible to calculate the average duration of each phase:
M phase: 40/200 = 0.2 x 24 hr = 4.8 hr
Prophase: 20/200 = 0.1 x 24 hr = 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 6/200 = 0.030 x 24 hr = 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 2/200 = 0.01 x 24 hr = 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 7/200 = 0.035 x 24 hr = 0.84 hr
Telophase: 5/200 = 0.025 x 24 hr = 0.6 hr
