Dolphins, porpoises, and whales all are in the group of marine animals known as cetaceans. Scientists saw many close similarities in the DNA sequences of whales and dolphins. This observation is proof of whales and dolphins both evolved from a relatively recent common ancestor.
What is cetaceans?Cetacean are members of an aquatic group of mammals commonly known as whales, dolphins, and porpoises.
The ancient Greeks stated that cetaceans can breathe air, give birth to live young, produce milk, and have hair. These are all features of mammals.
As the scientist observed the close similarities in the DNA sequences of both the whales and the dolphins. This shows the proof that whales and dolphins both evolved from a relatively recent common ancestor.
Thus, this is the evidence to reveal the reason behind the similarities in DNA sequences in whale and dolphin.

Answer:
Heterogéneas.
Explanation:
Se denomina "heterogénea" a toda aquella cosa que, por sus características particulares, no puede ser asimilada a otras sino que posee una individualidad particular que impide dicha asimilación. Así, por ejemplo, una piedra y una canica son heterogéneas entre sí, en tanto no poseen las mismas características y por lo tanto son claramente diferenciables.

Q. respire
Answer:
In the human adult, the bone marrow produces all of the red blood cells, 60–70 percent of the white cells (i.e., the granulocytes), and all of the platelets. The lymphatic tissues, particularly the thymus, the spleen, and the lymph nodes, produce the lymphocytes (comprising 20–30 percent of the white cells).
Answer:
E
Explanation:
Red blood cells, most white blood cells, and platelets are produced in the bone marrow, the soft fatty tissue inside bone cavities. Two types of white blood cells, T and B cells (lymphocytes), are also produced in the lymph nodes and spleen, and T cells are produced and mature in the thymus gland.
a) In how many cases in the genetic code would you fail to know the amino acid specified by a codon if you knew only the first two nucleotides of the codon?
b) In how many cases would you fail to know the first two nucleotides of the codon if you knew which amino acid is specified by it?
Answer:
a) 28 cases
b) 3 cases
Explanation:
a) From the table of genetic codes, there are 28 codons that specify more than one amino acid assuming only the first two nucleotides are considered. In these cases, one cannot outrightly specify the amino acid the genetic codes are coding for without knowing the last nucleotide of the codes. For example, UU can be for Phenylalanine or Leucine, CA can be for Histidine or Glutamine, etc.
b) From the table of genetic codes, the first two nucleotides of Arginine can be either of CG or AG, that of Serine can be either of UC or AG while that Leucine can be either of CU or UU. Only in these 3 cases would one fail to know which are the first two nucleotides assuming the name of the amino acids are given.

what do biopsies do you believe showed normal cells? how are these cells different from the cancerous cells?
Answer:
Biopsies are done to detect cancerous cells.
In biopsy, a piece of suspected tissue cut in thin sections is stained and examined under microscope.
Normal cells shows the property of contact inhibition
Whereas cancerous cells appears to have lost this property. And they multiply rapidly giving rise to masses of cells called tumour cells.

Explanation:
¡Hola!
En este caso, considerando la información dada, es posible para nosotros inferir que al haber una rebaja del 8%, pagamos solamente el 92% del valor original del producto, esto quiere decir que debemos dividir el valor pagado, €48.000, por 0.92 con el fin de conocer dicho precio original:

B is dominant for black fur over b for white fur. Cross two rabbits, heterozygous for fur color.
Answer:
Parental cross: Bb x Bb
F1:
- Expected phenotypic ratio: 3/4 black fur (B_); 1/4 white fur (bb) >> 3:1
- Expected genotypic ratio: 1/4 BB; 1/2 Bb; 1/4 bb >> 1:2:1
Explanation:
A gene variant or 'allele' is dominant when it completely masks the presence of the other allele called recessive in individuals that are heterozygous for that gene. In this case, the allele 'B' associated with the black fur phenotype exhibits complete dominance on the allele 'b' associated with the white fur phenotype. In consequence, the mating between two heterozygous (Bb) parents will produce an F1 generation with an expected phenotypic ratio for the fur trait of 3:1, i.e., 3 black fur individuals (B_ genotype) and 1 white fur individual (bb genotype), and an expected genotypic ratio of 1:2:1 among BB, Bb and bb genotypes.

D = diversity index
N = total number of organisms of all species found
Σ = the sum of
n = number of individuals of a particular species
D is a measure of species richness. A high value of D suggests a stable and ancient site, and a low value of D could suggest pollution, recent colonization or agricultural management. The index is normally used in studies of vegetation but can also be applied to comparisons of animal (or even all species) diversity.

Diffusion involves the movement of particles from a region of
А,
low concentration to a region of high concentration through a partially permeable
membrane
B
c.
high concentration to a region of low concentration through a partially permeable
membrane
low concentration to a region of high concentration with or without passing through
partially permeable membrane
high concentration to a region of low concentration with or without passing through
partially permeable membrane
Answer:
High concentration to low concentration with or without a partially permeable membrane
Explanation:
Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration (where there is alot of the particle) to a region of low concentration (where there is less of the particle) until it is evenly distributed.
The definition didn't state whether or not a partially permeable membrane was required.
It doesn't have to pass through a membrane. for e.g. spraying perfume at one side of the room and it is smelt on the other side. Meaning it diffused through the room. There was no membrane present.
It can also pass through a membrane for e.g diffusion of oxygen gas into cells (cells have membranes therefore the oxygen diffused through the membrane.)
which of the following hypotheses can be tested with experiments? select all that apply
1.) a diet low in sugar reduces the risk for heart disease
2.) coffee increases subject performance on intelligence tests
3.) people that brush their teeth live longer than those who don't brush their teeth
4.) scientists will find a cure for cancer before the year 2020
I know that 4 isn't the answer so I selected the other three and it said I was wrong. isn't a hypotheses something that can be experimented on so can't all of the three have experiments If I'm making sense
Options 1 and 2 can be tested through experimental procedures.
A hypothesis is an explanation for a given phenomenon from the real world.A testable hypothesis is a plausible explanation that can be proved (or rejected) by an experimental and/or observational procedure. A well-designed experiment should have into account the following characteristics: randomization, replication and local control.Manipulation indicates that one variable (dependent variable) is purposefully changed by the scientist in the environment.The controls must be used to prevent non-controlled factors which might be influencing the outcomes of the experiment.Option 3: it is not possible to carry out an experiment to test this hypothesis.Option 4: it is not a hypothesis and a false anachronic statement (cancer is a multifactorial disease that currently still has not been cured).In conclusion, only Options 1 and 2 can be tested through experimental procedures.

EXPERIMENT 2: Suppose starch would eventually be converted to simple sugars in the absence of amylase. Approximately how long would your experiment have taken if you did not use amylase
Answer: 5years
Explanation: Breaking down of starch into simple sugar without the deployment of amylase to act on it will take a long period of time (as long as 5years).
Enzyme Amylase saves us a lot of time in converting starch into simple sugars. Instead of taking up to years, Amylase only requires about 10minutes to get the job done. It does this by hydrolyzing starch into maltose, glucose, shorter polysaccharides, and dextrins.
