Answer:
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines point source pollution as any contaminant that enters the environment from an easily identified and confined place.The classic image of a factory smokestack belching smoke and fumes into the air or an industrial discharge pipe pouring contaminated liquid into a river are some great examples of point source releases to the environment.Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is pollution resulting from many diffuse sources, in direct contrast to point source pollution which results from a single source.Hope this helps :)

There are some specific ethical guidelines and standards for the forensic scientists to follow. But it was not always so. Investigate how the standards and ethics code came to be established over the years. Also, discuss whether they have helped as much as they should have.
Answer:
Explanation:
The field of forensic science is important to the criminal justice system. Forensic personnel must pay close attention to detail during the collection, preservation, and analysis of physical evidence. If evidence is mishandled, manipulated, or misinterpreted it can potentially destroy a case and/or the lives of all individuals involved
Answer:
Explanation:
In 1904, Scotland Yard officials introduced fingerprint matching to US law enforcement officials at the World’s Fair. The fact that forensic science was not born from the scientific community meant that forensic scientists were not always bound to the quest for knowledge, but instead for the purpose of solving crimes. This difference led to misaligned incentives. Expert witnesses were often paid per conviction in many states.
In the late 1980s, DNA evidence, which was born in the scientific community, has helped identify the guilty and exonerate the innocent. Many other forensic techniques, such as hair microscopy, ballistics analysis, and arson investigations, have not been subjected to the rigorous scientific evaluation that DNA analysis has. Other techniques, such as blood typing, have been properly validated.
These invalidated techniques have led to the Innocence Project, which holds that forensic science techniques should be shown to be valid and reliable through research and assessment of validity and reliability, and subject to accreditation and certification to assure quality. States are eligible to receive grant money if they do so. This change has resulted in the growth of many organizations, such as the ASCLD/LAB, that accredit forensic scientists.
What type of scientist is most likely to study to cooling of lava after a volcanic eruption
You are doing lab work with a new species of beetle. You have isolated lines that breed true for either blue shells and long antenna or green shells and short antenna. Crossing these lines yields F1 progeny with blue shells and long antenna. Crossing F1 progeny with beetles that have green shells and short antenna yields the following progeny: Phenotypes Number Blue shell, long antenna 82 Green shell, short antenna 78 Blue shell, short antenna 37 Green shell, long antenna 43 Total 240 Assuming that the genes are linked, what is the map distance between them in m.u.
Answer:
The map distance = 33.3 cM
Explanation:
Let us take,
BBLL as blue shell, long antenna .........Parent 1
bbll as green shell, short antenna .......... Parent 2
Then, cross between parent 1 and parent 2, which is
BBLL X bbll
The F1 generation will be heterzygous
BbLl as blue shell, long antenna ...... F1 offspring
By the test cross,
BbLl X bbll :
given,
BL/bl = 82 : Parental
bl/bl = 78 : Parental
Bl/bl = 37 : Recombinant
bL/bl = 43 : Recombinant
Total = 240
Recombination frequency = { [tex]\frac{Number of recombinants}{Total offspring}[/tex]}*100
= (80/240)*100 = 33.33 %
Thus, the map distance = 33.3 cM
Evaluate these statements about Koch's postulates, which are used to establish a causative link between a specific microbe and a specific disease. Which of them are true
Answer:
The following statements are true:
The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.
If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.
The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.
Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:
Evaluate these statements about Koch's postulates, which are used to establish a causative link between a specific microbe and a specific disease. Which of them are true? Select all that apply.
The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.
The microbe does not have to be isolated from the experimental animal as long as the disease is present.
If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.
The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.
Explanation:
Robert Koch, a German Physician, in 1884 postulated the following four criteria in order to establish a causative relationship between a microbe and a disease;
The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy organisms. The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture. The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism. The microorganism must be reisolated from the inoculated, diseased experimental host and identified as being identical to the original specific causative agent.From the above, the following out of the statements are true:
The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.
If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.
The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.
When an enemy cell is present, a(n) __________ secretes perforins, which bore a hole in the enemy cell membrane.
a. interleukin
b. antibody
c. interferon
d. natural killer cell
e. opsonization
The correct answers is D. Natural killer cell
Explanation:
Natural killer cells are a type of cell in the immune system. These differ from other cells because these are innate, this means they attack all enemy cells or pathogens and are not specific. Also, they are the first general immune defense.
Moreover, the role of these cells to attack any enemy cell including cancer cells is possible due to specific chemicals or substances these cells release. One of these is perforins, which are mainly released by natural killer cells and destroy these by creating lesions in the cell membrane. According to this, the correct answer is D.

Activator or repressor proteins which bind DNA to regulate the transcription of genes do so mainly by: A. Covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA B. Covalent interactions of Zn2 atoms with the phosphodiester backbone C. Non-covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA D. Covalent interactions with nearby nucleosomes E. Answers B and D are correct
Answer:
C. Non-covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA
Explanation:
Activator or repressor proteins are proteins with specific DNA-binding domains that have affinity by one or two DNA strands. In general, these proteins interact with the major groove of the B-DNA structure since this structure exposes more functional groups for binding. Non-covalent interactions are a type of interaction that does not involve the sharing of electrons. The interaction between proteins and DNA is due to the combination of different non-covalent interactions, which can be classified into four major types: van der Waals, hydrophobic, hydrogen and ionic interactions.

How does the formation of NAD+ differ between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
A. NAD+ is formed in aerobic respiration by a fermentation process and formed in anaerobic respiration by oxidation of NADH.
B. NAD+ is formed by a fermentation process in anaerobic respiration by the conversion of pyruvate into lactate and by simple oxidation of NADH in aerobic respiration.
C. Under aerobic conditions, the electron acceptor is a molecule other than oxygen for NAD+ production, whereas under anaerobic conditions the electron acceptor is oxygen.
D. NAD+ is formed by the breakdown of pyruvate to form oxaloacetate in anaerobic respiration whereas in aerobic respiration it is formed by the breakdown of pyruvate into lactic acid or alcohol.
Answer:
B. NAD+ is formed by a fermentation process in anaerobic respiration by the conversion of pyruvate into lactate and by simple oxidation of NADH in aerobic respiration.
Explanation:
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important coenzyme that may exist in two different forms: oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH). The fermentation is an anaerobic oxidation-reduction reaction where pyruvate and NADH are reactants, while lactate and NAD+ are products generated by the oxidation of NADH to NAD+ and pyruvate to lactate, respectively. On the other hand, during aerobic respiration, NADH generated by glycolysis is oxidized to form NAD+ by the donation of its electrons to reduce pyruvate to lactate. Subsequently, NAD+ is reused in glycolysis (again) in order to generate more molecules of ATP.

Sweet yellow tomatoes with a pear shape bring a high price per basket to growers. Pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower position are recessive traits produced by alleles, f, r, and t, respectively.
The dominant phenotypes for each trait – full shape, red color, and axial flower position – are the product of dominant alleles F, R, and T. A farmer has two pure-breeding tomato lines. One is full, yellow, terminal and the other is pear, red, axial. Design a breeding experiment (crosses) that will produce a line with tomato that is pure-breeding for pear shape, yellow color, and axial flower position.
Answer and Explanation: The farmer has a pure-breeding line of tomato means the farmer has a tomato with genotype FFrrtt while the other line of tomato has genotype ffRRTT.
The cross between these lines gives a F1 generation of heterozygous full, red and axial or FfRrTt.
With an individual of F1 crosses with another individual of F1, the Punnet Square will be:
FfRrTt x FfRrTt
1) Dividing each characteristics, for simplicity:
F f
F FF Ff
f Ff ff
R r
R RR Rr
r Rr rr
T t
T TT Tt
t Tt tt
Analysing Punnett squares, we notice the line wanted (ffrrTT) will be produced, when an individual of F1 generation cross with another individual with the same generation.
