Answer:
The pollutants like heavy metals, organic solvents present in pesticides exist in small amounts in the atmosphere. During the process of the food chain, the concentration of these pollutants progressively keeps on increasing through different trophic levels. For example, fish eats a lot of planktonic growth may retain the pollutants in their tissues, birds or people that eat the fish might concentrate the pollutants still more. This process of accumulation of pollutants at different trophic levels is called as biomagnification. So, the correct answer is 'Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect'.
Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive condition in which blood does not clot properly. Queen Victoria of England had one allele for hemophilia. Most of her male descendants had the disorder, but few females had it. Why did hemophilia occur more frequently in Queen Victoria’s male descendants?
Answer:
Because hemophilia is an X-linked recessive condition.
Explanation:
As the problem states, hemophilia is an X-linked recessive condition.
Meaning that in Queen Victoria's female descendants (coded XX) which inherited the Queen's one allele, for hemophilia to appear in them it would be necessary to inherit another hemophillia-carrying allele from the father.The Queen's male descendants (coded XY) would always manifest hemophilia if they inherited the Queen's hemophilia allele, as they possesed only one X gene.A penicillin reaction is a life-threatening event. In those who are allergic to penicillin, the drug acts as a __________ that binds to blood proteins, causing a strong immune response.
Answer:
A penicillin reaction is a life-threatening event. In those who are allergic to penicillin, the drug acts as a hapten that binds to blood proteins, causing a strong immune response.
Explanation:
Low molecular weight chemicals can bind to antibodies, but cannot activate B lymphocytes by themselves (they are not immunogenic). To generate specific antibodies to these small chemicals, immunologists typically bind them to macromolecules prior to immunization. In these cases, the chemical is called a hapten. Penicillin G is a typical hapten that tends to covalently bind to lysine residues both in solution and in protein-bound cells. Penicillin is a drug that behaves as a hapten, since the beta-lactam ring under physiological conditions opens and reacts with the lysine residues of proteins, forming a complex that is the main antigenic determinant of penicillin and other beta-lactams and is capable of to stimulate responses mediated by antibodies or by T cells.
Antennae development in ants is thought to be a trait controlled by maternal effect. In ants, zig-zag coils are dominant to curly coils. Assume that a female develops zig-zag coils. What can be determined about inheritance of this trait in her family?
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.
c. This female carries the zig-zag allele
d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae.
Answer:
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.
Explanation:
Available data:
Antennae development ⇒ controlled by maternal effectZig-zag coils are dominantCurly coils are recessiveA female develops zig-zag coilsMaternal effect: Refers to the influence of the “environment provided by the mother” on the progeny phenotype. The mother´s genotype directly determines the progeny phenotype. Even though the progeny has a different genotype, it is irrelevant, as well as the father´s genotype or phenotype. This means that no matter what is the genotype of the offspring, all of them will express the same phenotype as their mother. The maternal effect is commonly seen in insects and might be seen in some mammals and plants.
So, if a female has zig-zag coils, this means that the mother also has zig-zag antennae and that all the brothers and sisters of this female ant have zig-zag antennae, independently of their genotype.
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The trait is inherited from the mother.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The whole progeny will express sig-zag antennae.
c. This female carries the zig-zag allele ⇒ Not necessarily.
d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae ⇒ Depends on it´s genotype

define cell and atom.....
Cell: A cell is the structural and fundamental unit of life. The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of every cell organelle is called Cell Biology.
Atom: atom is the smallest component of an element, characterized by a sharing of the chemical properties of the element and a nucleus with neutrons, protons and electrons. The protons and the neutrons reside in the nucleus.
whats the difference between atom and cell?
function wise atoms take part in every chemical reaction while cells are responsible for the development and growth of living existences. Atoms do not have life. They do not need food, water, and they do not reproduce. Cells are alive. Cells consume food and water and can reproduce. Atoms construct molecules and Cells make tissues for organs.
which property has not been observed for membrane proteins being degraded for energy during biological pathways
Answer:
energy storage
Explanation:
Membrane proteins are proteins that are either form part of or interact with cell membranes. Based on their interactions, membrane proteins can be categorized into integral proteins, which are a permanent part of a cell membrane, and peripheral proteins, which adhere temporarily to the cell membrane. Membrane proteins play many critical functions, for example, 1-they are involved in the passive and active transport of substances across cell membranes, 2-act as enzymes that catalyze chemical reactions, 3-act as receptors that bind specific molecules (such as hormones or neurotransmitters) in order to activate signaling cascades, 4-mediate communication between cells, 5-provide a mechanical link between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton, etc.
how digestion happens in human
Explanation:
The muscles of the small intestine mix food with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, and intestine, and push the mixture forward for further digestion. The walls of the small intestine absorb water and the digested nutrients into your bloodstream.
Answer :Once foods are broken into small enough parts, your body can absorb and move the nutrients to where they are needed. Your large intestine absorbs water, and the waste products of digestion become stool. Nerves and hormones help control the digestive process.
Predict what will happen to the concentration of pyruvate, NADH and H+ when the Krebs cycle is stopped by arsenic
Answer: Pyruvate would increase, NADH would decrease, and intermembrane H+ would decrease as well.
Explanation:
Glycolysis would raise pyruvate, but the Krebs Cycle would not produce NADH, decreasing it. No protons (H+) will be pushed into the intermembrane gap, lowering its H+ content and raising its pH.
What is Kreb's cycle?The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, commonly referred to as the Krebs cycle or the citric acid cycle, is the primary route that cells use in order to acquire energy and is an essential component of aerobic respiration. The cycle transforms the oxidative potential of acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) into the reductive potential of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH).
The synthesis of ATP via the Krebs cycle is disrupted when arsenic is present because it prevents pyruvate from being converted into acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA). In addition to the effects described above, arsenic also prevents glucose uptake at the cellular level, as well as gluconeogenesis, the oxidation of fatty acids, and additional acetyl-CoA formation.

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is an inability of the heart to pump sufficient blood to the body. One sign of CHF is excess fluid in the tissue spaces, known as edema. Describe the location of the edema if the left side of the heart fails, compared to the location of edema if the right side of the heart fails.
Answer:
Explanation:
When the left side of the heart (left ventricle) starts to fail, fluid collects in the lungs (edema). This extra fluid in the lungs (pulmonary congestion) makes it more difficult for the airways to expand as a person inhales. Breathing becomes more difficult and the person may feel short of breath, particularly with activity or when lying down.
When the right side of the heart (right ventricle) starts to fail, fluid begins to collect in the feet and lower legs. Puffy leg swelling (edema) is a sign of right heart failure, especially if the edema is pitting edema. With pitting edema, a finger pressed on the swollen leg leaves an imprint. Non-pitting edema is not caused by heart failure.

Using the organisms you identified in part B, create a food web for the ecosystem you chose. Use this sample food web for reference, although your food web will contain fewer organisms. Note that your food web does not have to include images, but you may include them if you choose. However, be sure to include arrows to indicate the direction of energy flow in your food web. Design your food web using any method listed below:
Unfortunately you did not introduce the organisms identified in part B, as the question shows. This makes it impossible for me to answer this question, but I will try and help as best I can.
In the figure attached to the question below, it is possible to see an example of a food web and the arrows that indicate the direction of the energy flow within this food web.
In this sense, we can determine that a food web is the set of food chains that complete and mix. A food chain shows how living organisms organize themselves so that one feeds on the other, whereas in the food web, this food chain is shown in a more realistic way, as it shows how food chains mix and interact within the ecosystem, as they do not there are food chains isolated in nature.

what is the function of neurotransmitters?
neurotransmitters are often reffered to as the body's chemical messangers. They are the molecules used by the nervus system to transmit messages between neurones, or from neurones to muscles. Communication between two neurones happens in the synaptic cleft (the small gap between the synapses of neurones).
what can happen during the cycle of photosynthesis with increasing concentrations of Atrazine?
Answer:
By inhibiting photosynthesis, Atrazine kills plants. Photosynthesis, which is unique to living green plants, occurs when light energy becomes the chemical energy required for food production.
Simply stated, plants eventually die of hunger when food production stops. Atrazine selectively kills unwanted plants (weeds) competing with suitable plants for water and nutrients (crops, turfgrass). It is thus a beneficial tool for both farming and urban plants.
Explanation:
In Texas maize and grain sorghum production, Atrazine is the most often used herbicide. In several "weed and feed" preparations for domestic plowing and commercial turf-grass weed control, it is also often found as an active ingredient.
With its broad use, atrazine has been identified in minute concentrations in Texas ground and surface waterways. Because of this, it is crucial to understand atrazine behavior in the environment and the potential for harmful impacts on human and animal health and on other non-target organisms.
