your answer is c. the hamster

Well, neither lizards or salmon have fur so A and B are wrong. The question asks which does not have opposable thumbs. The chimpazee does have them, so the answer is C.

Final answer:

The true statement is that heartburn often results from the gastroesophageal sphincter failing to close properly. None of the other listed statements are true regarding the digestive system.

Explanation:

Among the statements provided, the true statement is that heartburn often results when the gastroesophageal sphincter fails to close properly. The gastroesophageal sphincter is responsible for sealing the top of the stomach to prevent stomach acids from flowing back up into the esophagus, which can cause discomfort and the sensation known as heartburn.

Contrary to one of the other statements, a thin layer of chyme does not protect the lining of the digestive tract; rather, it is a thick mucus lining that protects the stomach lining from digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid. Moreover, hydrochloric acid is not responsible for the partial digestion of fats in the small intestine; that role is mainly played by bile and pancreatic lipase. Finally, cystic fibrosis is not an infectious disease, but a genetic disorder that affects various organs, including the lungs and the digestive system, without directly causing muscle malfunction that controls swallowing.

B. organelles

This is the smallest to largest in the organization of organisms: atom- molecule-cell-tissue-organ-organ system-organism. Tissue is just below organs.

Organisms are highly organized, coordinated structures that consist of one or more cells. Even very simple, single-celled organisms are remarkably complex: inside each cell, atoms make up molecules; these in turn make up cell organelles and other cellular inclusions. In multicellular organisms, similar cells form tissues. Tissues, in turn, collaborate to create organs (body structures with a distinct function). Organs work together to form organ systems.

The correct answer is: chemoautotrophs

Since these bacteria obtain energy by the oxidation of electron donors (inorganic hydrogen sulfide) in their environments (chemical reactions) we can classify them as chemotrophs. In addition, they synthesize all necessary organic compounds from CO2 so they are autotrophs (opposite from heterotrophs that are unable to fix carbon).

Bacteria that live around deep-sea, hot-water vents and obtain energy by oxidizing inorganic hydrogen sulfide and using this energy to build organic molecules from carbon dioxide in seawater are chemoautotrophs.

The answer to this question is 0.3

The frequency of the yellow allele in this corn population is 0.3, calculated following the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium principle, by taking the square root of the frequency of yellow kernels in the sample.

In the case of corn color, we are dealing with a simple Mendelian inheritance where the purple color is dominant over yellow. Given that there are 9 yellow kernels (representing genotype 'yy') out of 100 allows us to calculate the frequency of the recessive,yellow allele. In a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of a homozygous recessive genotype (like 'yy' for the yellow corn) is equal to the square of the frequency of the recessive allele, represented as q². Therefore, to calculate the frequency of the yellow allele ‘q’, take the square root of 9/100, equaling to 0.3. Thus, the frequency of the yellow allele in this corn population is 0.3.

5) muscle fiber is stimulated at the neuromuscular junction triggering an action potential  

7) APs travel down the T-tubules to the sarcoplasmic reticulum  

Released acetylcholine (due to action potential within motor neuron) from the motor neuron initiates depolarisation within the sarcolemma, which is spread through the muscle fibre via T tubules.

8) in response to an AP, calcium ions are released into the cytosol/space around the myofibrils

Depolarisation causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium ions necessary for the contraction

3) calcium ions bind to the T and T system

1) T and T system undergoes a conformational change, exposing the myosin binding sites on actin  

6) myosin head/cross-bridges bind to actin

The binding sites for the myosin heads located on actin, are covered by a blocking complex (troponin and tropomyosin) that can be unblocked by the calcium binding

2) myosin heads/cross bridges bind to actin and flex, shortening the sacromere  

4) actin filaments are pulled toward the center of the sacromere, shortening the muscle fiber  

As the individual sarcomeres become shorten the muscle fibres as a whole contracts

10) myosin head continues to attach, flex, release, extend, and reattach as long as calcium ions are present

9) calcium ions actively transported into the sarcoplasmic reticulum  

Relaxation of a muscle fiber occurs when a Ca ions are pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum .

The process of skeletal muscle contraction involves a series of events that occur in a specific order, starting from an action potential and ending with muscle relaxation. Calcium ions play a crucial role in this process, binding to the T and T system and exposing the myosin binding sites on actin. The myosin heads then bind to actin, flexing and shortening the sarcomere, which leads to muscle contraction.

The process of skeletal muscle contraction involves multiple events that occur in a specific order. First, an action potential travels down a motor neuron to the neuromuscular junction, stimulating the muscle fiber. This triggers the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol. The calcium ions bind to the T and T system, causing a conformational change that exposes the myosin binding sites on actin. The myosin heads then bind to actin and flex, shortening the sarcomere. This pulling of actin filaments towards the center of the sarcomere shortens the muscle fiber.

The myosin heads continue to attach, flex, release, extend, and reattach as long as calcium ions are present. To maintain muscle relaxation, calcium ions are actively transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Additionally, the T and T system undergoes another conformational change that covers the myosin binding sites on actin, preventing further contraction.

In summary, the order of events in skeletal muscle contraction is: 1) Muscle fiber is stimulated at the neuromuscular junction, triggering an action potential; 2) APs travel down the T-tubules to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, causing the release of calcium ions into the cytosol; 3) Calcium ions bind to the T and T system, exposing the myosin binding sites on actin; 4) Myosin heads bind to actin and flex, shortening the sarcomere and pulling actin filaments towards the center of the sarcomere; 5) Myosin heads continue to attach, flex, release, extend, and reattach as long as calcium ions are present; 6) Calcium ions are actively transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, leading to muscle relaxation.

Answer:

B) muscularis externa

Explanation:

Muscularis externa is a muscle layer of gastrointestinal tract (GI)that consists of an inner circular muscular layer and a longitudinal outer muscular layer.

Peristalsis is one-way contraction (followed by relaxation) of muscles found in GI which moves the caudal direction. Peristalsis involves rhythmic contractions of the longitudinal muscles in the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the eosophagus.

Segmentation is also process of muscular  contractions  in the GI.  Segmentation involves contractions of the circular muscles in the digestive tract and its function is to move chyme in both directions.

The muscle layer responsible for segmentation and peristalsis in the alimentary canal is the muscularis externa, which comprises an inner circular layer and an outer longitudinal layer.

The correct answer to which layer of the alimentary canal is responsible for segmentation and peristalsis is B) muscularis externa. This layer is also known simply as the muscularis. It is composed of two main muscle layers: an inner circular layer and an outer longitudinal layer. Together, these muscle layers are crucial for performing the movements that facilitate the physical breakdown of food (mechanical digestion) and propel the food through the digestive tract.

Segmentation refers to the alternating contractions and relaxations of nonadjacent segments of the intestine. This process breaks apart the food and mixes it thoroughly with digestive juices. Peristalsis, on the other hand, involves rhythmic, wave-like muscle contractions that move the food along the alimentary canal. Both functions are essential for the efficient digestion and transportation of food within the alimentary canal.

To determine the most effective antacid, the neutralizing power per gram was calculated for both antacids. Antacid B is more effective with 2.333 mmol/g, compared to antacid A's 1.723 mmol/g.

To determine which antacid is the most effective on a per gram basis, we will calculate the mmol of HCl each antacid neutralizes and then compare the efficacy per gram of the antacid.

Let's start with the neutralizing power of antacid A:

Calculate the mmol of HCl that antacid A neutralizes: 40 mL  of 0.56 M HCl

= 40 mmol/L
0.56 mol/L = 22.4 mmol of HCl.

Calculate the neutralizing power per gram: 22.4 mmol /  13.0 g

= 1.723 mmol/g.

Now for antacid B:

Calculate the mmol of HCl that antacid B neutralizes: 25 mL of 0.56 M HCl

= 25 mmol/L * 0.56 mol/L

= 14.0 mmol of HCl.

Calculate the neutralizing power per gram: 14.0 mmol / 6.00 g

= 2.333 mmol/g.

Comparing the two antacids, antacid B has a higher neutralizing power of 2.333 mmol/g compared to antacid A which has 1.723 mmol/g. Therefore, antacid B is more effective on a per gram basis.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is significant in regulating the movement of molecules in and out of the cell through processes such as active transport, diffusion, and osmosis. An example is that when the cell becomes dehydrated, water is taken in by osmosis until normal levels are reached. Whenever byproducts of biochemical reactions accumulate in the cell, they are taken out the cell through active transport.

Darwin meets Mendel—not literally

When Darwin came up with his theories of evolution and natural selection, he knew that the processes he was describing depended on heritable variation in populations. That is, they relied on differences in the features of the organisms in a population and on the ability of these different features to be passed on to offspring.

Darwin described evolution as "descent with modification," the idea that species change and give rise to new species over extended periods of time and that all species can trace their descent to a common ancestor. Today, evolution is typically defined as a change in the genetic makeup of a population over generations—a definition that encompasses both the large-scale evolution Darwin envisioned and the smaller-scale processes we'll discuss in this article.

Natural selection is the mechanism that Darwin proposed to explain how evolution takes place and why organisms are typically adapted, well-suited, to their environments and roles.

The basic idea of natural selection is that organisms with heritable traits that help them survive and reproduce—in a certain environment—will leave more offspring than organisms without those traits. Because the traits are heritable, they will be passed on to the offspring, who will also have a survival and reproduction advantage. Over generations, differential survival and reproduction will lead to a progressive increase in the frequency of the helpful traits in the population, making the population as a group better-suited to its environment.

Natural selection is not the only mechanism of evolution. Populations can also change in their genetic composition due to random events, migration, and other factors. However, natural selection is the one mechanism of evolution that consistently produces adaptation, a close fit between a group of organisms and its environment.

Darwin did not, however, know how traits were inherited. Like other scientists of his time, he thought that traits were passed on via blending inheritance. In this model, parents' traits are supposed to permanently blend in their offspring. The blending model was disproven by Austrian monk Gregor Mendel, who found that traits are specified by non-blending heritable units called genes.

Although Mendel published his work on genetics just a few years after Darwin published his ideas on evolution, Darwin probably never read Mendel’s work. Today, we can combine Darwin’s and Mendel’s ideas to arrive at a clearer understanding of what evolution is and how it takes place.

Microevolution is sometimes contrasted with macroevolution, evolution that involves large changes, such as formation of new groups or species, and happens over long time periods. However, most biologists view microevolution and macroevolution as the same process happening on different timescales. Microevolution adds up gradually, over long periods of time to produce macroevolutionary changes.

Let's look at three concepts that are core to the definition of microevolution: populations, alleles, and allele frequency.

Populations

A population is a group of organisms of the same species that are found in the same area and can interbreed. A population is the smallest unit that can evolve—in other words, an individual can’t evolve.

Alleles

An allele is a version of a gene, a heritable unit that controls a particular feature of an organism.

For instance, Mendel studied a gene that controls flower color in pea plants. This gene comes in a white allele, w, and a purple allele, W. Each pea plant has two gene copies, which may be the same or different alleles. When the alleles are different, one—the dominant allele, W—may hide the other—the recessive allele, w. A plant's set of alleles, called its genotype, determines its phenotype, or observable features, in this case flower color.

Phenotype—flower color

Genotype—pair of alleles

Allele frequency refers to how frequently a particular allele appears in a population. For instance, if all the alleles in a population of pea plants were purple alleles, W, the allele frequency of W would be 100%, or 1.0. However, if half the alleles were W and half were w, each allele would have an allele frequency of 50%, or 0.5.

In general, we can define allele frequency as

Total number of A/a gene copies in population

Number of copies of allele Ain population

start subscript, i, end subscript_ alleles of a gene). In that case, you would want to add up all of the different alleles to get your denominator.

Let’s look at an example. Consider the very small population of nine pea plants shown below. Each pea plant has two copies of the flower color gene.

The frequencies of all the alleles of a gene must add up to one, or 100%.

Phenotype frequency: How often we see white vs. purple

Allele frequency: how often we see each allele

Answer:

mitochondria and chloroplasts

Explanation:

Both mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own DNA and ribosomes.

The Respiratory system controls the intake of oxygen and the exhale of waste products such as carbon dioxide from our circulatory system. The lungs control the gas exchange between our respiratory system and our circulatory system. Once the nutrients are in the blood stream, the circulatory system, red blood cells and white blood cells and other cells floating through arteries, all controlled by the pumping of the heart. Once the nutrients inhaled by the respiratory system are brought to the cells by the circulatory system (from the pulmonary vein to the heart to the arteries) through the much smaller capillaries, they are used in cellular respiration. The oxygen is used to help the products of glycolysis enter the mitochondria to produce more ATP.

 The waste products are then put back into the circulatory system through the capillaries. The circulatory system then takes the nutrients through veins back to the heart where it is then put through the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Once in the lungs gas exchange occurs, expelling the waste products and reoxygenating the blood.

Answer:

Head position in space

Explanation:

The vestibular system or apparatus is a collection of structures in the inner ear that provides a sense of balance and awareness of spatial orientation. The information furnished by the vestibular system is essential for coordinating the position of the head and the movement of the eyes. There are two sets of end organs in the inner ear, or labyrinth: the three semicircular canals, which detects and respond to rotational movements (angular acceleration); and the utricle and saccule (the otolith organs) within the vestibule, which respond to changes in the position of the head with respect to gravity (linear acceleration).

The receptor cells of the otoliths and semicircular canals send signals through the vestibular nerve fibers to the neural structures that control eye movements, posture, and balance.

The vestibular system detects head motion and position with respect to gravity.

Vestibular signals are heavily processed in numerous parts of the brain and are engaged in a wide range of important processes.

It is largely engaged in the delicate regulation of visual gaze, posture, orthostasis, spatial orientation, and navigation.

Gravity and rotational acceleration and deceleration are examples of the stimuli that the vestibular system is sensitive to.

The inertia of the vestibular system's receptive cells may be measured to determine gravity, acceleration, and deceleration. Through head position, gravity may be felt.
