A colony of bees was observed feeding on nectar while pollinating plants. What type of ecological relationship exists between the bees and the plants?

1 Parasitism 2 Predation

3 Mutualism 4 Commensalism

Answer:

- Hypothesis: thyroxine gene is responsive to low temperatures, thereby its transcript level is higher in cold climates

- Subjects of study: gene expression data collected from individuals from countries with different climates  

- Experiment: to determine thyroxin gene expression level by Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) in individuals living in cold climates (e.g., Iceland) versus individuals living in warmer climates (e.g., Puerto Rico)

- Independent variable: temperature

- Dependent variable: thyroxin transcript level  

- N sample: 500 individuals of each population  

- Control group: individuals living in the same climate conditions but from different countries. It can be done by collecting gene expression data from individuals living in another country. For example, both Fairbanks (Alaska) in the USA and Reykjavik in Iceland are at 64 degrees N latitude, and thereby these cities have similar climates

- Constant variable: all data collected from individuals of adult age (age range: 20-30 years)  

Explanation:

The scientific method is a sequential process that consists of making hypotheses in order to explain observations from the real world, make predictions based on the working hypotheses, carrying out experiments based on those predictions, test the predictions and draw conclusions based on the results obtained. In an experiment, the independent variable isn't changed by the other variables, while the dependent variable is the variable being measured in the experiment. A constant variable does not change during the experiment. Moreover, a control group is a particular group to which comparisons are made during the experiment (the control group isn't exposed to the independent variable, and therefore any change in the experimental groups can be compared with the control). In this case, it is expected to measure thyroxine expression levels in 500 individuals from each country by RT-PCR (RT-PCR technique is used to measure the amount of mRNA of a target gene of interest). Subsequently, it is possible to determine if the differences in the thyroxin gene expression levels between populations (i.e., individuals living in Iceland vs individuals living in Puerto Rico) are statistically significant to confirm that thyroxin gene activity is increased in response to cold exposure. Finally, the control group can be used to determine if observed differences in gene expression are irrefutably correlated with cold conditions.

Answer: a plant that has flowers and produces seeds enclosed within a carpel. The angiosperms are a large group and include herbaceous plants, shrubs, grasses, and most trees.

Explanation:

Answer:

Tt

Explanation:

Hello. I believe that you are only referring to question 2, since question 3 does not present all the answer options. As such, the offspring of a cross between a tall pea plant (TT) and a low pea plant (tt) would be completely "Tt."

To achieve this result, you must make a Punnett Square, which is a frame that allows you to combine the alleles of the parents in a cross to project the alleles of the offspring.

Alleles are those characterized by the letters associated with characteristics. As you saw in the question above, tall pea plants have "TT" alleles that are dominant alleles, while low pea plants have "tt" alleles that are recessive alleles. In this case, to use Punnett Square, you must put the alleles of one parent in the first row and the allele of the other parent in the first column. Then just combine each allele, as shown below:

    T    T

t    Tt   Tt

t    Tt   Tt

As you can see all the offspring will have the "Tt" alleles. This means that the entire offspring will be tall pea plants. This is because the recessive allele "t", which is related to pea plants, can only be expressed in the presence of another recessive allele. However, the dominant "T" allele, which is associated with tall pea plants, can be expressed in any situation.

Answer: The main reproductive hormones are estrogen and testosterone. Once a girl enters puberty, estrogen matures the eggs in the ovaries. These are then released at regular intervals during the menstrual cycle. Testosterone stimulates the production of sperm in men.

Explanation:

answer: The global warming controversy concerns the public debate over whether global warming is occurring, how much has occurred in modern times, what has caused it, what its effects will be, whether any action can or should be taken to curb it, and if so what that action should be. In the scientific literature, there is a strong consensus that global surface temperatures have increased in recent decades and that the trend is caused by human-induced emissions of greenhouse gases.[1][2][3][4][5][6] No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees with this view,[7] though a few organizations with members in extractive industries hold non-committal positions,[8] and some have attempted to convince the public that climate change is not happening, or if the climate is changing it is not because of human influence,[9] attempting to sow doubt in the scientific consensus.

Answer:

it think it C ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Answer:

Sampling error may allow fixation of one form and the elimination of others in a small population.

Explanation:

It can be seen that in case of a small population size, there are high chances of the elimination or the fixation of the allele in the population when compared to the large population size. Also sampling errors are found in case of small population size that leads to the enhancement of the chances for fixation and also for the elimination of the allele. This large size population doe not have much effect. The random fixation of the either selective allele or the elimination of the disadvantageous allele occurs due to the genetic drift.

SO in order for the population size influenced the survival of both types of mutations , the sampling error may be allowed for the fixation of one of the form and the elimination of the other forms in the small population size.

Answer and Explanation:

Many elements can limit population growth. The main elements that can cause this are the lack of resources necessary for the life and development of living beings and the lack of space to be taken by them. In relation to weeds, these resources can be the availability of sun, amount of soil, soil fertility, availability of water and space. However, these plants are very resistant to the lack of these resources, and what most limits their growth is human interference.

Weeds are unfavorable to agriculture and other human activities. This makes humans fight the population growth of these plants using chemical products and even physical strategies. This interference prevents weeds from taking over the world.

Answer:

The correct answer is - overdominance.

Explanation:

In the given question, genotype Pp is a heterozygote condition that has a 54% survival rate or fitness thus these individual people get more chance of mating and increase in number as compared to the other two conditions of PP or pp traits where PP has 45% survivability, less than heterozygous condition and more than pp that has only 4% rate.

It results in a normalizing selection model of natural selection as a moderate trait, that is heterozygote, is selected. Thus, the selection of overdominance which means heterozygote condition produces a better phenotype than PP or pp parents is heterosis.

Answer:

Womersley numbers :  22.25 , 5.96 , 3.72

Explanation:

Calculate the Womersley number if the heart rate = 70 bpm

For the Human Aorta

∝ = r [tex]\sqrt{\frac{wp}{u} }[/tex]  ------ ( 1 )

r = radius  = 15 mm = 0.015 m

w = 2πf = 2 * π * 70 = 439.82

p = density of blood = 1060 kg/m^3

u = 0.035 P = 3.5 cp = 3.5 * 10^-3 Ns/m^2

Back to equation ( 1 )

∝ = 0.015 * [tex]\sqrt{\frac{439.82*1060}{60*3.5*10^{-3} } }[/tex] = ( 0.015 * √466209.2 / 0.21 )  = 22.35

 For Carotid artery

r = 0.8 cm / 2 = 0.4 cm = 0.004 m

w = 2πf  = 439.82

Womersley number =  ( 0.004 * √466209.2 / 0.21  )

                                = 0.004 * 1489.981 = 5.96

For Femoral artery

r = 0.5 cm / 2 = 0.25 cm = 0.0025 m

Womersley number = 0.0025 * √466209.2 / 0.21  )

                                = 0.0025 * 1489.981 = 3.72

The flow is unsteady because of the varying Womersley numbers

Answer:

The correct answer is C. In North and South America, a majority of the population is located on the coasts.

Explanation:

Historically, the vast majority of civilizations have sought to establish their urban centers around bodies of water, be they rivers or seas, that allow them a rapid expansion outward as well as channels through which to channel trade. Thus, it can be seen how throughout the world and especially the American continent, large cities and population centers are located primarily on the coasts. Examples of this situation are Vancouver in Canada, New York and Los Angeles in the United States, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil or Buenos Aires in Argentina.
