What action must a Marine take to accomplish the task of enabling themselves and their Marines to assume progressively greater responsibilities in the Marine Corps and society?

Answer:

AGCAGCAGCAGC

Explanation:

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the product of transcription, which is made by synthesizing a complementary strand of the DNA template. The mRNA is a template used to synthesis amino acids during the second process of protein synthesis (translation).

mRNA are read in the ribosomes in a group of three nucleotide sequences called CODON. This codon (triplet nucleotide on mRNA) specifies a particular amino acid. There are 64 possible combinations of codons in the genome for the 20 amino acids. Due to this, the genome/genetic code exhibits a phenomenon called DEGENERACY. Degeneracy is a phenomenon whereby more than one codon specifies a particular amino acid.

The possible CODONS that specify the amino acids given in the question are:

Serine: AGC, AGU, UCA, UCC, UCG, UCU

Glutamine: CAA, CAG

Hence, looking at this codons/nucleotide sequences, we would realize that combining the sequence;

AGCAGCAGCAGC; will produce a serine amino acid sequence, while skipping the first two nucleotides (A and G) and starting from nucleotide C, we will have CAG which codes for Glutamine amino acid repeated three times.

Hence, AGCAGCAGCAGC is the possible mRNA nucleotide sequence that can produce both amino acid sequence.

Final answer:

The question asks for mRNA sequences that could code for glutamine and serine. Glutamine is coded by GAA and GAG, while serine is coded by UCA, UCG, UCU, and UCC. The options given do not match these codons, so the correct mRNA sequence would be any combination of codons for glutamine and serine.

Explanation:

The student's question relates to the genetic code and how sequences of nucleotides in messenger RNA (mRNA) correspond to the amino acid sequences that make up proteins. To answer which mRNA sequences could code for the amino acid sequences of glutamine (Gln) and serine (Ser), we need to refer to the codon table that matches mRNA triplets with amino acids. Glutamine is coded by the mRNA codons GAA and GAG, while serine is coded by the mRNA codons UCA, UCG, UCU, and UCC.

None of the options provided (a. valine and isoleucine, b. asparagine and serine, c. glutamic acid and arginine, d. tryptophan and methionine) match the codons for glutamine or serine. Therefore, the correct mRNA sequence could be any combination of the codons for Gln and Ser, such as CAAGAG for a Glutamine-Glutamine-Glutamine sequence and UCUUCU for a Serine-Serine-Serine sequence.

Additionally, understanding how changes in the mRNA sequence affect amino acid sequences is critical. For example, inserting an arginine codon between certain amino acids would alter the resulting protein structure, potentially affecting its function.

It is a primary immunodeficiency disorder caused by the mutation in chromosome number 22.

Answer: A. Brain - Organ level

B. Neurons - Cellular level

C. Neurotransmitters - Chemical level

D. Neurons and neuroglial cells - Tissue level

E.Brain combined with the spinal cord and spinal nerves - Organ System level

Explanation: There are five levels of organisation of life; cell, tissue, organ, system and organism.

The smallest unit is cell. Neurons are nerve cells.

Aggregation of cells forms a tissue. Neurons and neuroglial cells aggregate to form nervous tissues and are hence at tissue level.

Aggregation of tissues forms an organ. Brain is an example of organ. It is formed from aggregation of nervous tissues.

Tissues aggregate to form organs while aggregation of organs constitute a system. The nervous system consist of brain combined with spinal cord and spinal nerves.

The nervous system release chemicals called neurotransmitters.

Answer: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)

Explanation:

DNA is the main hereditary material that distinguishes living from non-living things.

It is so because its replication i.e DNA replication can ONLY occur in the cell of a living organism. That is why even virus replicate it's DNA only in a living host not else where.

So, DNA is the answer

The woman's symptoms and blood test indicating hypoglycemia suggest she may have a tumour like insulinoma, which leads to over-secretion of insulin and reduced levels of blood glucose.

Based on the presented symptoms and the result of the rapid blood test, which showed hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), the patient might be suffering from a condition like an insulinoma. Insulinoma is a type of tumor that causes over-secretion of insulin, as suggested by C. This condition can cause an excessive amount of insulin to be released, causing diminished glucose in the blood. The initial symptoms of hypoglycemia may often include feeling unwell, tiredness, and confusion. The later stages may include tachycardia (increased heart rate), sweating (diaphoresis), and being warm to the touch. A sudden loss of consciousness can also occur. If the patient began to feel better after some time, it might have been because her blood glucose levels started to recover naturally, but vomiting can be another symptom of severe hypoglycemia.

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.

Answer:

Hydrophobic interaction.

Explanation:

On the basis of the polarity and the dissolution of water, the molecules can be classified into the hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules. The hydrophobic molecules can easily dissolve in the non polar solvents.

The hydrophobic interaction is important that exist between the non polar molecules. The hydrophobic interaction plays an important role in the biological system as the lipids of the cell membrane are assisted together with the hydrophobic interaction. The hydrocarbon tail is non polar molecules that contains hydrophobic interaction within it.

Thus, the correct answer is hydrophobic interaction.

Answer:

plasma membrane receptors

Explanation:

Water-soluble hormones such as amine and peptide hormones cannot cross the hydrophobic core of the plasma membranes of their target cells. Therefore, these hormones have cell surface receptors present on the surface of their target cells. Binding of water-soluble hormones to their respective plasma membrane receptors on the target cells stimulates the generation of a second messenger which in turn brings about the desired changes in the cells.

For example, binding of some water-soluble hormones to their plasma membrane receptors stimulates the formation of cAMP inside the target cells. The cAMP serves as the second messenger and activates the protein kinases which in turn activate cellular proteins involved in the generation of the desired response.

Water-soluble hormones bind to plasma membrane receptors, which sets off a cascade involving the activation of adenylate cyclase and the production of cAMP, leading to cellular responses through protein kinases.

Water-soluble hormones affect target cells by binding to plasma membrane receptors. When a water-soluble hormone binds to its receptor, it activates a G-protein that is associated with the receptor on the cell membrane. This then activates an enzyme called adenylate cyclase, which converts ATP to cyclic AMP (cAMP), the second messenger. cAMP activates enzymes called protein kinases, which in turn phosphorylate various cellular proteins, leading to the desired cellular response.

Answer: Gram staining is arranged in the following order;

1) Crystal violet

2) iodine

3) Alcohol-acetone

4) safranin

Explanation:

Applying primary stain to a heat fixed smear of a bacterial culture

Then you add iodine which binds the crystal violet and traps it in the cell. After you decolourise with ethanol finally counter shade with safranin

The correct order for the Gram stain process is: crystal violet, iodine, alcohol-acetone, and safranin. This method is crucial for classifying bacteria into Gram-positive and Gram-negative groups.

The Gram Stain is a differential staining technique used to classify bacteria into two major groups: Gram-positive and Gram-negative. The correct order of the steps in this process is:

This sequence is vital. First, the bacterial smear is stained with crystal violet, then it's treated with iodine, a mordant that forms an insoluble complex with crystal violet, which can subsequently be removed with alcohol or acetone. Finally, safranin, a counterstain, is applied that stains Gram-negative bacteria.

Answer:

Option D, tightly linked

Explanation:

The population of both rabbit and Lynx is tightly linked which means that if the population of rabbit is affected negatively, the population of Lynx will also get affected negatively.  

In general, Lynx gets its nutrition from rabbit by feeding on them when they are in sufficient number. When the rabbits become scarce, Lynx starts feeding on alternative food sources such as mice, carrion etc. but these food type cannot  provide sufficient nourishment to the  Lynx and hence the population of Lynx also reduces as some of them die because of starvation while the remaining move to different areas in search of food.  

Hence, option D  is correct

The growth curves for lynx and rabbits that fluctuate together represent predator-prey dynamics, with lynx being the predator and rabbits the prey. This tightly linked cycle of population growth and decline represents a classic example of predator-prey interaction, best exemplified by the historical cycling patterns of lynx and snowshoe hares in Northern Ontario.

The relationship wherein lynx feed on rabbits, and their growth curves fluctuate together, exemplifies predator-prey dynamics. These fluctuations are tightly linked cycles where the prey population (rabbits) increases leading to a subsequent increase in the predator population (lynx). This is followed by a decline in the prey population due to increased predation, which in turn causes a decline in the predator population due to food scarcity. Hence, the correct answer is not the S-shaped or J-shaped growth curve, nor irregular fluctuations, but rather a tightly linked cycle of respective population sizes of prey and predators.

These cycles are typically observed in wildlife population studies, such as the historical pattern of cycling between lynx and snowshoe hares in Northern Ontario, which has been documented through nearly 200 years of trapping data. The approximately 10-year cycle, with the lynx population lagging 1-2 years behind the hare population, demonstrates how interconnected and dependent these populations are on each other's numbers for their survival and growth rates.

When we consider the orientations of the two strands of DNA that make up a double helix, we see that they are:

A. parallel.

B. antiparallel.

C. mirror images.

Answer:

B. antiparallel.

Explanation:

A single DNA strand has two distinct ends. These are the 3' and 5' ends. At the 3' end, the 3' OH of the pentose sugar is present freely and is not involved in phosphodiester bond. The 5' end of DNA has a free phosphate group. A DNA double helix has two DNA strands. These two DNA strands of a double helix are anti-parallel in nature. This means that the 3' end of one DNA strand is present opposite to the 5' end of another DNA strand.

Answer:

Answer is Cabbage.

Explanation:

It should be noted that the turning on and off of the genes is known as the gene regulation. And this process is considered to be very important because it helps the cell to react quickly or promptly to the changes in the environment.

Oxidative stress usually occurs when there is imbalance the free radicals production  and the ability of the body to fight against their damaging effects or possibly repair their damaging effects. While inflammation is considered to be the reddening or swollen occurring in some parts of the body.

In this aspect, cabbage , as an example of vegetable help to turn-off the genes, i.e prevent the genes that can cause the oxidative stress or inflammation from performing their damaging activities.

Answer:

(B) None of the answers are true...

Explanation:

(A) is wrong because the high levels of epinephrine promote activation of sympathetic nervous system that'll ultimately increase oxygen consumption.

(C) Elevated temperatures of body require immediate cooling that's why breathing rate gets high and ultimately the oxygen consumption.

(D) We all know that a vigorous dose of exercise always increases your bodies oxygen consumption.

The answer to the question is B) None of these answers is true. All listed factors such as high blood levels of hormones, elevated body temperature, and high-intensity exercise contribute to increased excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC).

The question asks which factor would NOT increase oxygen consumption during recovery from exercise, otherwise known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). While high blood levels of hormones like epinephrine, elevated body temperature, and high-intensity exercise all contribute to increased EPOC, none of the factors listed in the options would decrease EPOC. Hormones such as epinephrine and increased body temperature can shift the oxygen-hemoglobin saturation/disassociation curve, facilitating greater oxygen delivery and utilization. Higher intensity exercise also results in increased EPOC due to the higher demands placed on the body for energy production and recovery. Therefore, the answer is B) None of these answers is true, as all other options would increase EPOC.

Answer:

Option C, Psychosexual Development

Explanation:

Freud has proposed five stages in his theory and each stage is associated with a satisfaction drive or instinct i.e associated with different parts of body. In his theory, a child between the ages of 0 to 1 year, sense everything by putting it in his/her mouth. This gives satisfaction to the child. When he/she grows and his/her age lies within the age bracket of 1 to 3 years, a child develops an ego against things opposing his/her instinct which is in general resolved through potty training. Between the age of 3 to 6 years, child develops feelings of jealousy, attraction, rivalry and fear. In the latency stage i.e from 6 years to up till puberty, a child focuses on developing new skill sets; play with children of same gender etc.  

And in the last stage i.e from puberty to adult hood, a child experience adolescent attractions such as attraction towards opposite sex, love, relationship etc.

Answer:

Prejudice

Explanation:

Answer:

Dissolve 47.025 grams of sucrose in enough water to produce 250 ml of solution.

Explanation:

You need to prepare 250. mL of a 0.550 M aqueous solution of sucrose, C12H22O11 (aq),

which is used frequently in biological experiments.

Based on your answer above, what is the value of x?

Solution:

A 0.550 M aqueous solution contains 0.550 mole of sucrose per liter of solution.

250 ml = 0.250 liter

Thus a 0.250 liter of a 0.550 M aqueous solution of sucrose contains 0.250 * 0.550 = 0.1375 mole of sucrose

Recall:

Mass = number of moles * mass of 1 mole

mass of 1 mole of C12H22O11

= 12(12) + 1(22) + 16(11)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 grams

Mass = 0.1375 * 342 = 47.025 grams of sucrose.

Dissolve 47.025 grams of sucrose in enough water to produce 250 ml of solution.

c. Required:

The value of x in the x gram of sucrose to b measured

Solution;

The correct amount of solute, x, to be measured is found as follows

The mass of sucrose required, m = n × V × MM

Where;

MM = The molar mass of the sucrose = 342.2965 g/mol

x = 0.550 mol/L × 0.250 L × 342.2965 g/mol ≈ 47.066 g

x ≈ 47.066 g

d. Required:

The method by which the solute and the solvent are to be mixed in the container

Solution:

The method by which the solute and the solvent are mixed so that the volume of the total mixture is 250 mL is as follows;

It is important to add water unto the solute already in the flask so that the total volume of the solvent and solute combined is 250 mL

However, it is also important to first dissolve the solute in a small amount of water, so as to provide enough space for swirling of the liquid without spilling it

When all the sucrose has dissolved, water can then be added to fill the flack to the 250 mL mark

Therefore, the correct option is to mix a small amount of water with the solute to dissolve it, then fill with water to the 250-mL mark.

Answer:

B) the bloodstream

Explanation:

In multicellular organisms, the cells of the organisms are interconnected and communicate with each other through the secreted chemicals. When the communication takes place between distant cells then the body releases the chemicals called hormones.

The hormones reach distant sites through the bloodstream and act on the target site. This signaling communication is known as the endocrine signaling in which the endocrine glands secrete the chemicals into the bloodstream.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Endocrine messages are slower than nervous system messages as hormones travel through the bloodstream, whereas neural messages use rapid electrical and chemical signals.

The nervous system transmits messages rapidly through electrical signals and chemical neurotransmitters, with the fastest nerve impulses reaching speeds over 100 meters per second. In contrast, endocrine messages are delivered more slowly because hormones travel through the bloodstream. Unlike the immediate action of neurotransmitters which act locally and quickly, hormones are secreted into the blood by endocrine glands and are broadcast to all cells in the body, acting over a longer distance and time frame to induce cellular response.

Answer: The testing effect  

Explanation:

The testing effect can be generally used to find out that long-term memory is generally increased when a bit of the (adapting)learning period is spend towards retrieving what is to be retained in the brain.

This effect is often referred as practice testing or retrieval practice. This is required to test what is retained in the brain which was studied over a long time back.

This effect is known as the testing effect.

Final answer:

The concept that describes the improvement in long-term retention due to actively recalling studied information is known as C) the testing effect, which is part of effective learning strategies and metacognition.

Explanation:

The phenomenon where testing your ability to recall information you have just studied improves your long-term retention of that information is referred to as the testing effect. This concept is grounded in the idea that retrieval is one of the most powerful enhancements to learning, as highlighted in the work of Roediger and Butler (2013). It is more beneficial than simply reviewing the material because it involves the active act of getting information out of long-term memory storage and back into conscious awareness. This self-testing not only helps you to understand if you truly know the material but also makes learning more durable over time. In contrast to becoming overconfident from merely reviewing notes, the testing effect provides a more accurate assessment of one's knowledge, tapping into metacognition.

When conductors with negative charge touch, electrons flow from the object that has a greater negative charge to the object that has less negative charge in the process of conduction.

Electronic conductivity is defined as the exchange of charges between two bodies that are conductors by means of exchange and sharing of electrons between themselves.

Electrons are actually responsible for the existence of negative charges in the electricity, and presence of electrons make a body negatively charged and absence of electrons make them positive charged.

When a more negatively charged body touches a less negativity charged body, the electrons from more negatively charged body flows to the body with less negatively charged one, because of more electron density.

When conductors with opposite charge touch, electrons flow from the object that has a greater negative charge to the object that has less negative charge in the process of charge transfer.

When conductors with opposite charge touch, electrons flow from the object that has a greater negative charge to the object that has less negative charge in the process of charge transfer. Conductors are materials in which charges can move freely. If a conductor with excess negative charge comes into contact with a conductor with excess positive charge, electrons will flow from the conductor with more negative charge to the conductor with less negative charge until the charges are in equilibrium.

The adaptation of the sled dog best describes adaptation at the Population level while the dog exposed to seasonal colder temperatures has physiological modifications at the individual level.

Explanation:

Adaptations are the special characteristic of animals and plants necessary for their survival in a particular climate. Sledge dogs are not pet and also does not come under wild animals category. These animals change their characteristics physically to survive in a particular weather.

Sledge dogs changes their fur, blood circulation, tongue, feet  and tail to survive in winter.

The fur in the sledge dog has two coats. This helps them to adapt to extreme cold conditions. The fur in the outermost layer helps in expelling water. This will provide dryness to the dog. The fur that is the the next layer acts as an insulator and prevents the dog skin to lose heat. Thus, this adaptation describes the adaptation at population level and physical changes that its makes in its individual body to survive in cold temperatures.

Digestion is a process by which large ingested molecules are mechanically and chemically broken down to produce basic nutrients that can be absorbed across the wall of the GI tract.

Explanation:

Digestion is the process by which large molecules of food are broken down into molecules small enough to be absorbed by the body's cells, that is, through this process the body obtains nutrients from food to function properly. The organs that perform this function are part of the digestive system. Digestion and absorption takes place in the gastrointestinal tract (GI track), during its passage through this tube, food remains 3 to 5 hours in the stomach, 4 hours in its movement along the small intestine and 6 to 20 hours in the large intestine .

Answer and Explanation:

Data:

This 64% of the population is composed of individuals with genotype CC and Cc. This percentage equals a frequency of 0.64.

36% of the population is composed of homozygote individuals expressing the recessive trait, cc. This percentage equals a genotypic frequency of 0.36.

If CC=p² and cc=q², then:

cc=q²=0,36

√cc=√0.36=0.6

c=0.6

0.6 is the allelic frequency for the recessive trait.

Considering that the sum of frequencies of the dominant allele plus the recessive allele equals one, then  C + c = 1.

If we know the frequency of the recessive allele c, but not the frequency of the dominant allele, we can obtain it by clearing the equation. This is  

      C + c = 1

      C + 0.6 = 1

      1 - 0.6 = C

      1 - 0.6 = 0.4

So the frequency of the dominant allele, C is 0.4.

The genotypic frequency of the heterozygous is 2pq=2Cc=2x0.4x0.6= 0.48

So the genotyic frequency for the heterozygous is 0.48

a.The daughter cells of meiosis I would be diploid, but the daughter cells of meiosis II would be haploid.

b.The two sister chromatids of each replicated chromosome would no longer be identical.

c.The four daughter cells produced in meiosis II would all be different.

d.The two daughter cells produced in meiosis I would be identical.

e.There would be less genetic variation among gametes.

f.Independent assortment of chromosomes would not occur.

The correct answer is E, there would be less genetic variation among gametes.

Explanation:

Crossing-over or also called recombination is a phenomenon peculiar to meiosis alone. Meiosis is that kind of division that is employed by sexual-reproducing organisms to produce gamete/sex cells. Crossing-over is a process that may or may not occur, if it does, it occurs in prophase of meiosis I, and it involves exchanging equal chromosomal segments between two non-sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over is the means by which sexually reproducing organisms use to bring about genetic variation among their species.

It is worthy to note that the non-occurrence of crossing-over does not affect the number of chromosomes as a normal meiotic division will always yield haploid gametes right from meiosis I.

Since crossing-over did not occur, the homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes) will separate into each cell during meiosis I, meaning that each cell will have chromosomes that are either maternal or paternal. This will reduce the chance of genetic variation occuring among species.
