Answer:

birds have feathers, reptiles have scales

birds are endothermic, while reptiles are generally ectothermic

Explanation:

The main difference between birds and reptiles  is that birds have feathers on their body while on the other hand, reptiles ahve dry skin and have scales. Reptiles are ectotherms, while birds are endotherms. An ectotherm relies on its external environment to regulate the temperature of its body whereas Endotherms are able to regulate their body temperatures by producing heat within the body.

Answers

The Bacillus genus is usually negative in regards for the Oxidase test.

Oxidase test is a biochemical test that is used to identify organisms that produce the enzyme  oxidase.

Oxidase test is used to distinguish aerobic from anaerobic metabolism in microbes.

Aerobic metabolism is the use of oxygen to generate energy from a food source while anaerobic metabolism is the generation of energy with the absence of oxygen.

The procedure of oxidase test includes:

Place a piece of filter paper in a clean petri dish and add 2 or 3 drops of freshly prepared oxidase reagent.Using a piece of stick or glass rod (not anoxidized wire loop), remove a colony of the test organism and smear it on the filter paper.Look for the development of a blue-purplecolour within a few seconds as shown in colour

Blue purple colour signifies oxidase positive organisms which includes Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Colourless signifies oxidase negative organisms which includes Escherichia coli

Factors determine energy a human being requires in a day

Answers

Human energy requirements are estimated from measures of energy expenditure plus the additional energy needs for growth, pregnancy and lactation. Recommendations for dietary energy intake from food must satisfy these requirements for the attainment and maintenance of optimal health, physiological function and well-being. The latter (i.e. well-being) depends not only on health, but also on the ability to satisfy the demands imposed by society and the environment, as well as all the other energy-demanding activities that fulfil individual needs.

Energy balance is achieved when input (i.e. dietary energy intake) is equal to output (i.e. total energy expenditure), plus the energy cost of growth in childhood and pregnancy, or the energy cost to produce milk during lactation. When energy balance is maintained over a prolonged period, an individual is considered to be in a steady state. This can include short periods during which the day-to-day balance between intake and expenditure does not occur. An optimal steady state is achieved when energy intake compensates for total energy expenditure and allows for adequate growth in children, and pregnancy and lactation in women, without imposing metabolic, physiological or behavioural restrictions that limit the full expression of a person’s biological, social and economic potential.

Within certain limits, humans can adapt to transient or enduring changes in energy intake through possible physiological and behavioural responses related to energy expenditure and/or changes in growth. Energy balance is maintained, and a new steady state is then achieved. However, adjustments to low or high energy intakes may sometimes entail biological and behavioural penalties, such as reduced growth velocity, loss of lean body mass, excessive accumulation of body fat, increased risk of disease, forced rest periods, and physical or social limitations in performing certain activities and tasks. Some of these adjustments are important and may even increase the chances of survival in times of food scarcity.

Answer:

Explanation:

Two different enzymes catalyze the same reaction and both exhibit the same Vmax. When Enzyme A was run with a 40 uM substrate, the initial rate (Vo) was 10 uM/min, and when g it was run with a 4 mM substrate, the Vo was 20 uM/min. Estimate the approximate Vmax and Km of Enzyme A. When Enzyme B was run with 80 uM substrate, the initial rate (Vo) was 10 uM per minute. Estimate the Km of Enzyme B.

Answers

Answer:

a) k_m = 4.08 uM

  V_{max} = 20.07 uM/min

b) k_m = 8.16 uM

Explanation:

Given that:

For Enzyme A:

the substrate concentration [S] = 40 uM

the initial velocity rate v = 10 uM/min

when it was 4mM, v = 20 uM/min

i.e.

at 4mM = 4000 uM;

Using Michealis -menten equation;

when v = 10

[tex]V = \dfrac{V_{max}[S]}{k_m+[S]}[/tex]

[tex]10 = \dfrac{V_{max}\times 40}{k_m + 40}[/tex]

[tex]10 (k_m + 40) = V_{max}40[/tex]

[tex]40V_{max} -10k_m = 400 --- (1)[/tex]

when v= 20

[tex]20= \dfrac{V_{max}\times 4000}{k_m + 4000}[/tex]

[tex]20 (k_m + 4000) = V_{max}4000[/tex]

[tex]4000V_{max} -20k_m = 8000 --- (2)[/tex]

equating equation (1) and (2):

[tex]40V_{max} -10k_m = 400 --- (1)[/tex]

[tex]4000V_{max} -20k_m = 8000 --- (2)[/tex]

let multiply equation (1) by 100 and equation (2) by 1

4000V_{max} - 1000K_m = 4000

4000V_{max} - 20 k_m = 8000    

  0        -980k_m = 4000

k_m = 4000/-980

k_m = 4.08 uM

replacing the value of k_m into equation (1)

40{V_max } - 10(4.08) = 400

40{V_max } - 40.8 = 400

40{V_max } = 400 +  40.8

40{V_max } = 440.8

V_{max} = 440.8/40

V_{max} = 11.02 uM/min

b)

Since V_{max} of A ie equivalent to that of B; then:

V_{max} of B = 11.02 uM/min

Here;

[S] = 80  uM

V = 10 uM/min

[tex]10 = \dfrac{11.02 \times 80}{k_m + 80 }[/tex]

10(k_m +80) = 881.6

10k_m = 881.6  - 800

10k_m = 81.6

k_m = 81.6/10

k_m = 8.16 uM

Determine whether each statement describes mitosis, melosis, or both mitosis and melosis.

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks statements, the statements and the answers are as follows:

occurs in organisms that sexually reproduce - MEIOSIS

occurs during growth and development - MITOSIS

the DNA is replicated - MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS

occurs in all organisms - MITOSIS

the number of chromosomes remains the same - MITOSIS

the number of chromosomes reduces by half - MEIOSIS

Explanation:

Meiosis and mitosis are both types of cellular divisions that occur in living cells. Mitosis involves the formation of two (2) daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell while meiosis involves the formation of four (4) daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell.

The following are characteristics of the two division processes based on this question:

MITOSIS:

- It occurs during growth and development of an organism.

- it involves DNA replication

- it occurs in all organisms since every living organism undergoes growth and development.

- the number of chromosomes after mitosis remains the same in the daughter cell i.e. 2n remains 2n

MEIOSIS:

- It occurs only in organisms that sexually reproduce.

- it also involves the replication of DNA

- The number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half i.e. 2n to n.

What is the result of a mutation during meiosis

Answers

The result of Mutation increases during meiosis is the answer to this question

Answer:

There's a change in the DNA sequence

Explanation:

If a mutation occurs in cells that will make gametes by meiosis or during meiosis itself, it can be passed on to offspring and contribute to genetic variability of the population. Mutations are the sole source of genetic variability that can occur in asexual reproduction. But the effects of mutations can vary widely, from being beneficial, to having no effect, to having lethal consequences, and every possibility in between.
