A doctor studies cells from the spinal Fluid from a very sick baby. After analyzing

the lipid content in the cells, the doctor finds a very high concentration of a fatty

toxic substance called GM2 ganglioside. This toxic substance is normally broken down in

healthy cells. She suspects that this baby has a genetic disorder affecting one

particular organelle involved in recycling and breaking down larger molecules

2 Which organelle or cellular structure might not be able to perform its job and have defective proteins as a result

of this genetic disorder? Explain your answer below.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Lysosomes

Explanation:

Lysosomes are membrane bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes that are used to break down large molecules such as carbohydrate, protein and lipids. They also contain degradative enzymes that are used to degrade dead cells.

The genetic disorder must have affected the development of lysosomes (which makes it have defective enzymes/proteins) in the baby's cells which is the reason she is unable to break down the fatty toxic substance.

NOTE: Most enzymes are proteins and were used interchangeably in the second part of the question

Which terms describe humans' roles in a food web?
Select one:
a. producers, autotrophs
b. consumers, autotrophs
c. consumers, decomposers
d. consumers, heterotrophs

Answers

Answer:

d. consumers, heterotrophs

Explanation:

Answer:

d. consumers, heterotrophs

Explanation:

Humans cannot be producers since we do not make photosynthesis (our own energy/food), we need to consume food in order to have energy. Therefore, we can't be autotrophs. We are also not decomposers because we don't eat dead animals like for example a vulture.

5. Which of the following statements best describes the response of finches to drought on the Galapagos Islands?
O A During drought, individual finches saw that large, hard seeds were the only available food. To crack these harder seeds, individual finches grew their beaks
larger, resulting in an increased average beak depth
OB During drought, finches struggled to open harder seeds All the scraping and pecking wore down their beaks, resulting in a reduced average beak depth
OC. During drought, only finches with larger-than-average beaks were able to crack the hard seeds that were available. These finches survived while smaller-
beaked finches died, resulting in an increased average beak depth in the population
O D. During drought, finches with smaller beaks (and smaller bodies) had an advantage. With reduced food supplies, larger finches (with larger beaks) were
more likely to starve. The result was a decrease in average beak depth

A. During drought, individual finches saw that large, hard seeds were the only available food. To crack these harder seeds, individual finches grew their beaks larger, resulting in an increased average beak depth

How large beak finches survive drough condition?

During drought, finches with larger beaks survive because they were able to crack the hard seeds that were available in the drought situation while on the other hand, the smaller beaked finches died due to unavailability of food which result in an increased average beak length in the population.

So we can conclude that option A is the right answer.

Microscope Notes

Answer:

The depth of focus is greatest on the lowest power objective. Each time you switch to a higher power, the depth of focus is reduced. Therefore a smaller part of the specimen is in focus at higher power.

The amount of light transmitted to your eye is greatest at the low power. When you switch to a higher power, light (and therefore resolving power, or the ability to distinguish two nearby objects as separate) is reduced. Compensate with the light control (sometimes called the iris diaphragm

Answer:

The correct answer is - option b) lipids

Explanation:

Lipids are one of the nutrients that are necessary to the body of an individual organism as it plays role in different ways such as energy storage, cell signaling, component of the cell membrane and many more hat maintain homeostasis in organisms body.

These nutrients are made up of fatty acid and glycerol long chains so these are polymer of glycerol and fatty acid and called triglyceride which provides maximum energy in comparison to other nutrients in need.

Thus, the correct answer is - option B) lipids.

Explanation:

In pea plants, the allele for round seeds is dominant to the allele for wrinkled seeds. If a plant that is heterozygous for seed type is crossed with one that has only homzygous wrinkled seeds, what percent of their offspring would you expect to have wrinkled seeds?

Answers

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

According to this question involving a gene coding for seed shape in pea plant, the allele for round seeds (R) is dominant to the allele for wrinkled seeds (r). This means that a heterozygous pea plant (Rr) will have a round seed shape.

If a plant that is heterozygous for seed type (Rr) is crossed with one that has only homzygous wrinkled seeds (rr), the following gametes will be produced by each parent plant:

Rr - R and r

rr - r and r

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportions of offsprings will be produced:

Rr, Rr, rr and rr

Rr = round seed offsprings

rr = wrinkled seed offsprings

Since 1 out of 2 offsprings has wrinkled seeds, 1/2 × 100 = 50% is the percentage of offsprings expected to have wrinkled seeds.
