You are studying several alleles of an E. coli helicase gene. One allele, called rsR, confers resistance to RS2014, an antibiotic that works by inhibiting helicase activity. Bacteria with the rsS allele are sensitive to RS2014. Another allele, called ts-, produces a temperature sensitive mutation of the helicase. In bacteria with the ts- allele, helicase is inactivated at 42 °C but functions normally at 37 °C. Helicase functions normally at both temperatures in bacteria with the ts allele. You obtain the following data while testing four strains of E. coli at different temperatures and doses of RS2014. Each number represents the percentage of maximal DNA synthesis. Based on this data, assign the appropriate genotype to strains A–D in the spaces provided

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Artificial passive immunity can be acquired by injecting readymade antibodies. The antibodies are not produced by the recipient cells of the organism.

The injection of gamma globulin is artificially acquired passive immunity as these antibodies are injected directly into the body of the recipient. This immunity is  given to provide short term immunization to an individual organism.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Answer:

Low mean corpuscular value can shift the curve to the left side.

Explanation:

RBC histogram may be defined as the process of plotting the number of blood cells on Y- axis and their relative size on X- axis. Modern automated haematology is used for the construction of RBC histogram.

The cell population of RBCs is similar in size but not equal to the size of RBC the curve can shift to either direction. The low MCV (mean corpuscular value) value can shift the the curve to the left side while considering an RBC histogram.

Final answer:

An elevation in the left side of an RBC histogram can be caused by polycythemia. This condition may result from dehydration, chronic adaptation to high altitudes, or polycythemia vera, a bone marrow disease that increases the production of immature erythrocytes, affecting blood viscosity and pressure.

Explanation:

An elevation in the left side of an RBC histogram can be caused by several conditions that affect red blood cell populations in the bloodstream. One such cause is polycythemia, an elevated RBC count that is detectable through an elevated hematocrit. Conditions leading to polycythemia include dehydration where plasma volume falls, adaptation to high altitudes where increased RBC production is a normal response to lower oxygen levels, and polycythemia vera, a bone marrow disease causing overproduction of immature erythrocytes.

In the context of polycythemia vera, this rare disease more commonly affects males and the elderly, leading to increased blood viscosity which can elevate blood pressure and make it harder for the heart to pump blood. Other factors such as diseases that lead to excessive destruction of RBCs or their abnormal shapes, such as in sickle cell anemia, can also affect the shape of the RBC histogram.

e Tax breaks                          reducing (and maintaining) the demand

f  drip irrigation                      reducing the demand.  

Answer:

Explanation:

As stated in the above question, supply side solutions increase the supply of fresh water. This means that the options that will increase the level of fresh water that will be offered to the consumer will be on the supply side, that is, those options that will provide plenty of choice for the consumer should be on the supply side, so we can say that the solutions are: desalinating seawater, damming a river to create a reservoir, a nation invading a neighboring country to access their rivers

The above question also states that demand-side solutions will reduce demand for fresh water. This means that these solutions should discourage consumers from paying for or limiting their use of fresh water. These solutions are: raising water prices for consumers and businesses, providing tax breaks for companies that use less water, requiring low-flow shower heads in new homes, replacing inefficient irrigation with more-efficient drip irrigation to grow crops

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Answer:

1: Light-dependent reactions:

Reactants: H2O, ADP, NADP

Products: O2, ATP, NADPH

Location: Thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts in cells of leaves

2: Light-independent reactions

Reactants: CO2, H2O, ATP, NADPH

Products: C6H12O6 (glucose), ADP, NADP

Location: Stroma of chloroplasts in leaf cells

Explanation:

Photosynthesis takes place in two stages:

1: Light-dependent reactions: This stage includes splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and release of electrons and oxygen gas. The electrons are channeled into the electron transport chain and result in the formation of ATP and NADPH. This stage includes photosystem I and II present in the thylakoid membrane. Hence, light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts and form ATP and NADPH.  

2: Light-independent reactions: Also called as Calvin cycle, the light-independent reactions use ATP and NADPH formed during light reactions of photosynthesis to fix CO2 into glucose. The enzymes of the Calvin cycle are present in the stroma of chloroplasts and hence, this stage of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast stroma.  

Answer:

20 million years

Explanation:

If we have a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years, then the total of eight mutation between the two different species would be 20 million years. This is because both species will have 4 mutations in those 20 million years, so combined, both by 4, will have 8 mutations between them. So few mutations on so much time will result in two species that are very similar to each other even after 20 million years of evolution, even making them hardly distinguishable, especially if it comes to defining fossil records from them both. A nice example of this are the members of the felidae (cat) family, which are all very closely related, and are almost identical, thus making it extremely hard to distinguish two species of the same or similar size by their fossils.

Soft-shell crabs have soft shells because they have recently molted and their new exoskeleton has not had time to harden. The exoskeleton is made of chitin and is crucial for protection and movement but must be shed periodically as the crab grows.

The soft shells of soft-shell crabs are due to the fact that they have recently molted. Crabs, including soft-shell crabs, have an exoskeleton which is an external, hard shell that provides defense against predators, supports the body, and facilitates movement. The exoskeleton, made primarily of a substance called chitin, does not grow as the crab grows.

Therefore, crabs must periodically shed their old shell in a process known as molting, during which the new exoskeleton underneath is initially soft until it hardens. This molting process is necessary because the exoskeleton is acellular and cannot expand. Soft-shell crabs are caught for consumption shortly after they molt, before their new exoskeleton has had time to harden.

Buffer

Explanation:

Buffers may be defined as the solution of a weak acid with ithe conjugate base or a weak base with the conjugate acid. Buffers are not affected by the the additions of strong acid or base in a solution.

Whenever a strong base or acid is added to the buffer, it  may release or binds with the hydrogen ion and maintains the pH of a body fluid.  Blood has a buffer of carbonate ions and bicarbonic acids that maintains the blood pH.

Thus, the correct answer is option (E).

A chemical that stabilizes pH by binding or releasing hydrogen ions is called a buffer. These substances, such as the bicarbonate system in the human body, help maintain pH at a level essential for effective physiological function.

A chemical that minimizes changes in the pH of a body fluid by releasing or binding hydrogen ions is known as a buffer. Buffers play a crucial role in maintaining the acid-base balance within the pH range crucial for proper physiological functioning, which for blood is roughly between pH 7.35 and 7.45. These systems can absorb excess hydrogen ions (H+) or hydroxide ions (OH−), preventing significant changes in pH. For example, the bicarbonate system in the human body is an important buffer that helps maintain a stable pH level by reacting with hydrogen ions to form carbonic acid or with hydroxide ions to form bicarbonate ions.

There are various buffering systems that include not only bicarbonates but also phosphates, plasma proteins, and hemoglobin. These substances often consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, which can neutralize small amounts of acids or bases in body fluids. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is E) buffer.

Of these, leukocytes are primarily involved in the immune response. All formed elements originate in the bone marrow as stem cells (HSCs) that differentiate through hematopoiesis.

Final answer:

Blood contains formed elements such as red blood cells, which transport oxygen and carbon dioxide; white blood cells, which defend against infections; and platelets, which are involved in blood clotting and tissue repair.

Explanation:

The Formed Elements of Blood and Their Functions

The formed elements of blood include red blood cells (RBCs or erythrocytes), white blood cells (WBCs or leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). These elements play critical roles in the body's functions and are suspended in the plasma, the extracellular matrix of the blood.

Functions of Red Blood Cells

Red blood cells are biconcave cells that carry hemoglobin, a molecule essential for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs. They lack a nucleus and mitochondria, which allows for more space to carry hemoglobin. Erythrocytes have a lifespan of about 120 days and are produced in the bone marrow.

Functions of White Blood Cells

White blood cells are key to the body's immune response. They fight infections and foreign bodies through processes like diapedesis, where they pass out of blood vessels into tissues. Leukocytes include granular types such as neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils, and agranular types such as monocytes, NK cells, B cells, and T cells.

Functions of Platelets

Platelets are small cell fragments that originate from megakaryocytes in the bone marrow. They play a significant role in hemostasis, the process of blood clotting, by forming a temporary plug at a site of injury to the blood vessels. Platelets also release growth factors to repair and heal tissues.

Together, these elements ensure proper oxygenation of tissues, defense against pathogens, and prevention of excessive bleeding.
