The exoskeleton of insects is made primarily of the inorganic material chitin. Which statement below accurately describes a consequence of this feature?
A. Insects must occasionally shed their exoskeleton to grow a new one.
B. The exoskeletons of insects grow along with them throughout their life span.
C. Insects can only grow as large as their hard exoskeletons allow.
D. Adult insects don't have an exoskeleton once they outgrow the one in which they were born.
Answer: A. Insects must occasionally shed their exoskeleton to grow a new one.
Explanation:
In the development process of insects from egg to adult form several intermediate stages occurs. In all immature insects the process of shedding of the skin and the exoskeleton takes place as the insect grows. The exoskeleton of the insect body does not expand as the insect grows it has to get shed and it get replaced with a new and large size exoskeleton. This allows the proper growth of the insect.
Some plants rely on the wind to reproduce an example is the___. It’s important for plants to use the forces of nature to reproduce because they_____.
1. 1a White tuft of dandelion seeds 2a spiked burrs surrounding seeds 3a hard shell on a walnut?
2. 1b require pollination to reproduce 2b reproduce only asexually 3b cannot move about freely?
Answer:
1a and 3b.
Explanation:
I don't know if I read that right, but dandelion tufts blow away and plant because of the wind, otherwise they cant move freely.
Answer:
1. 1a White tuft of dandelion seeds
3b cannot move about freely
Explanation:
The White tuft of dandelion seeds refers to the feathery filaments and seeds. It is carried along with moving air away from the parent plant. The wind carries the seeds of dandelion to other places. Once the seeds find suitable substratum and growth conditions, they germinate and form a new plant.
Since plants can not move from one place to another in search of better growth conditions and substratum, they depend on air, water, other animals, etc. for dispersal of their seeds.
a diploid human cell contain 46 chromosomes if such a cell under go mitosis then how many chromosome will be present in the daughter cells if it has just passed through telophase
Answer:
The daughter cells will have equal number of chromosomes like that of parent cell i.e. 46.
Explanation:
Mitosis is a process of division that creates two new daughter cells with same genetic material and thus equal number of chromosomes. It involves: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase and at the end cytokine.
In prophase, the nuclear envelope of the cell breaks down along with chromosome condensation. In metaphase, the condensed chromosomes line up at equatorial plate. In anaphase, the sister chromatids of lined chromosomes are pulled towards the opposite poles. While in telophase the cell is ready for division, its nearly dividing stage in which the cell retains its normal structures.

What would most likely happen if a person increased the amount of saturated fat in his or her diet?
The person's risk of cardiovascular disease would increase.
The person's risk of cardiovascular disease would decrease.
The person's bad cholesterol would decrease.
The person’s good cholesterol would increase.
Answer:
The person's risk of cardiovascular disease would increase.
Explanation:
saturated refers to all single bonds in the hydrocarbon chain, meaning no kinks in the chain. The hydrocarbon has the most number of carbons it can have, as there are all single bonds. If the hydrocarbon has even one less carbon, there would be kink, and it would be unsaturated and liquid. Our body needs less carbon, so unsaturated fats are better. But having saturated fats means no liquid, rather solid, which means harder for the blood to get to the heart. So your risk would cardiovascular disease would increase

Oxygen is a reactant in cellular respiration. Which term best describes oxygen
in photosynthesis?
Answer:
ANSWER: Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that occurs in plants. Photosynthesis uses ATP energy from sunlight to convert Carbon Dioxide and Water into Glucose. Oxygen is also formed during photosynthesis.
Oxygen is the product of photosynthesis, where water and carbon dioxide are the reactants and G3P and oxygen are the products. This contrasts with cellular respiration, where oxygen is a reactant.
Explanation:When it comes to the role of oxygen in photosynthesis, it is best described as a product rather than a reactant. In the process of photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and, using the energy from sunlight, convert these reactants into glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). The correct statement among the options provided would be option (b), which states that in photosynthesis, chlorophyll, water, and carbon dioxide are reactants, while G3P (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate) and oxygen are products.
This contradicts the role of oxygen in cellular respiration, where oxygen serves as a critical reactant. In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to break down glucose, producing ATP, water, and carbon dioxide as waste products.

a structure that is found in a plant cell and not in an animal cell is a ?
central vacuole
mitochondrion
nucleus
ribosome
A structure that is found in a plant cell and not in an animal cell is a central vacuole.
Option A
Explanation:
Plant cells are different from animal cells because a large central vacuole is present in the plant cell which is filled with water and salts to create a turgor pressure which gives the cell the physical strength to overcome the water pressure. The central vacuoles are not present in the animal cells but there are small vesicles which transports the molecules from surface to cytoplasm or vice versa.

A forest fire destroys an area. A small population of trees and a large population of birds are both affected. Which type of limiting factor causes this?
density dependent
density independent
population dependent
population independen
The correct answer is B. Density independent
Explanation:
In biology, factors that limit a population are known as density limiting factors. These factors are classified into density-dependent if they affect populations with a high density such as predation or food availability or as independent if they affect different populations of animals despite their density which includes mainly disasters such as fires or floods.
This means the forest fire described is a density-independent factor because the population of birds and trees were reduced or limited but this did not occur because of the density of the population as all species in the forest are affected no matter if the population if high or low.
