Why do caves form in Sandy Glacier, but not in larger thicker glaciers?

Answers

Answer 1
Large, permanent caves like those on the Sandy only form when a glacier is thin and the weight of the ice no longer squeezes the caves shut, allowing warm air to flow into the glacier. McGregor and Cartaya have drawn on years of experience mountaineering and caving to safely explore the caves in the Sandy Glacier.

The pairs of nucleotides result in the twisting of strands. Therefore, option "B" is correct.

What is nucleotide base pairing?

There are five types of nucleotide bases adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymidine, and uracil. These divide into two classes of nucleotides pyrimidine and purine nucleotide bases.  Pyrimidines are uracil, thymine, and cytosine whereas adenine and guanine are purine.

In RNA, adenine, cytosine, and guanine are present but thymine is replaced by uracil. Pyrimidine always binds with the purines through hydrogen bonding. Adenine binds with thymine. Cytosine binds with guanine. But when adenine pairs with uracil in RNA.

Therefore, nucleotide base pairing determines the twisting of the DNA strand depending on the type of nucleotide present.

1) What is the control group? 2) What is the experimental group? 3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable? 4) What is the dependent (responding) variable? 5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Answers

Complete question:

Tina asks the question “Does caffeine increase the heart rate of an earthworm?” In Test 1, she measures the heart rate by looking at the earthworm under a microscopes, the earthworm has a heart rate of 50 bpm (beats per minute). In Test 2, she places a few drops of caffeine on the earthworm’s skin and measures the rate again. In this test, the heart rate is 68 bpm.

1) What is the control group?

2) What is the experimental group?

3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable?

4) What is the dependent (responding) variable?

5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Answer:

Individuals from test 1Individuals from test 2CaffeineHeart rateTina´s hypothesis is correct. Caffeine increases the heart rate of an earthworm.  

Explanation:

During an experiment, data from an experimental group is compared with the data from a control group. Both groups are selected from the same pool or population, so they are identical in all aspects except for the independent variables.  

The control group is used to identify any other factors influencing the results obtained in the study, apart from the modified variables of the treatment.

The experimental group is the one affected by the experimental procedure or treatment. The researcher voluntarily changes the independent variables in the experimental group to observe how they affect the group under study. These variables are kept constant in the control group, not influencing the results, while the experimental group receives the treatment. There can be several experimental groups.  

Independent (manipulated) variable: Refers to all the variables in an experiment that provoke a response in another variable. An independent variable is the one that changes or is controlled and modified in the experiment to analyze how another variable responds to it. It changes to analyze its effects on the dependent variable. Usually, the independent variable is represented by the X letter.   Dependent variable: Refers to the variable, which response depends on any change in the independent variable. It represents a quantity of something which value depends on how the independent variable is modified. The change in the dependent variable might be proportional or inversely proportional to the change in the manipulated variable. It is usually represented using the letter Y.  Controlled variable: Refers to the variables that have no influence on the results. These variables do not affect the change in the dependent variable values.  

1) What is the control group?

Individuals from test 1 compose the control group. They are not affected by the treatment. Tina just uses them to measure the normal heart rate and to compare them with individuals from test 2.

2) What is the experimental group?

Individuals from Test 2 compose the experimental group. They are affected by the treatment. Tina drops caffeine on their skin to see how it affects the worms.

3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable?

Caffeine is the independent variable. Tina manipulates the number of drops she places on the worm´s skins.

4) What is the dependent (responding) variable?

Heart rate is the dependent variable. Tina evaluates how the heart rate changes in individuals with or without caffeine.

5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Caffeine increases the heart rate of an earthworm. It changes from 50 to 68 bpm. Tina´s hypothesis is correct.

This summer, you are returning to the research station in Costa Rica to follow up on the population of butterflies you have been studying. You are disappointed to find that there are fewer this year than last. In fact, at dinner your friends studying frogs and birds are complaining about the same thing. What type of influence do you suspect

Answers

Answer:

it is likely that there was an environmental disturbance that affected the population density of the species.

Explanation:

All animals have their survival and reproduction capacity directly linked to environmental quality. This is because these animals take from the environment all the resources needed to live and develop. In this case, when the environment is balanced and has the necessary resources for life, animals can survive longer and develop well, being able to reproduce, generating more animals that increase the population density of their species. However, when this environment is disturbed, the animals' survival is threatened, even failing to reproduce. This lowers population density.

In the case presented in the question above, it is likely that populations of butterflies, frogs and birds are decreasing due to environmental disturbances.

Answer the next five questions based on the following information. You are studying a particular type of spider and have identified four traits that follow simple mendelian genetics. The B gene governs body color and black body color is dominant to brown. The D gene governs whether or not the spider is poisonous, and poisonous is dominant to non-poisonous. The E gene governs eye color and black eyes are dominant to red eyes. The H gene governs hair type and hairy is dominant to hairless. Indicate your answer numerically not alphabetically. For instance, answer "2" not "two." For each answer that is not a whole number, give your answer as a fraction reduced to the lowest possible whole numbers. For instance, 3/9 would be reduced to 1/3.



How many different types of gametes can be formed by a spider that has the genotype BbDdEeHH?


If you chose a single gamete at random from a spider that has the genotype BbDdEeHh, what is the probability that the gamete would have the genotype BdEh?

You mate a BbDDEeHh spider with a BbDdEEHh spider. What is the probability that one randomly chosen offspring will have the genotype BbDdEEHH?

Answers

Answer:

a. 81/256.

b. 9/256.

b. 9 / 256.

Explanation:

The given traits in the question follow the Mendelian character. The cross between the body color where B is responsible for black color and b is responsible for brown color is as follows: Bb × Bb results in the 3/4 black color ( BB, Bb, Bb) and 1/4 brown color progeny (bb). The cross between the poisonous and nonpoisonous trait where D is responsible for poisonous trait and d is responsible for nonpoisonous is as follows: Dd × Dd results in the 3/4 poisonous trait  (DD, Dd, Dd) and 1/4 nonpoisonous (dd). The cross between the eye color where E is responsible for black color and e is responsible for red color is as follows: Ee × Ee results in the 3/4 black color ( EE, Ee, Ee) and 1/4 red color progeny (ee). The cross between the hair trait where H is responsible for hairy and h is responsible for hairless is as follows: Hh × Hh results in the 3/4 hairy (HH, Hh, Hh) and 1/4 hairless (hh).

a. The cross between BbDdEeHh spider with a BbDdEeHh spider results in the 3/4black body, 3/4 black eyes, 3/4, hairy, and 3/4 poisonous progeny. Their probability is 3/4× 3/4× 3/4× 3/4 = 81/ 256.

b. The cross between BbDdEeHh spider with a BbDdEeHh spider results in the  3/4black body, 3/4 black eyes 1/4 hairless, and 1/4 nonpoisonous progeny. Their probability is  3/4× 3/4×1/4 3/4×1/4 = 9/256.

Thus, the answer is a. 81/256.
