1.(a) (i) Explain why small organisms such as this amoeba can obtain sufficient oxygen for respiration without a
specialized gas-exchange system.?
fi)explain why the method of gas exchange in (a)i above is only possible in very small organisms.?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In single celled organisms surface area to volume ratio is optimum for diffusion/exchange of substances between the cell and its exterior and this rate of exchange suffices the requirement of a unicellular organism. However, in multicellular organisms the surface area to volume ratio is low,  the exchange that takes place with the exterior or the environment occurs only through the body surface with the help of a specific structure/organ, example (Skin),However, this exchange does not compensate for millions of cells in a multicellular organism, which have distinct requirements based on their function

Explanation:

i) Amoeba gets oxygen gas dissolved in surrounding water through its plasma membrane by the process of diffusion.

ii)The oxygen gas diffused inside the body is used up by amoeba. carbon dioxide gas is also liberated in the surrounding water through the same process of diffusion.

What does it mean that there is both unity and diversity of life at the level of the cell?

Answers

Answer:

All livings organisms are with unicellular origin. The cells have a common structure like cell membrane, DNA , RNA and necessary enzymes. The genetic code of protein synthesis is almost similar with few exceptions. This shows unity in design.

Further evolutionary changes took place due to environmental stress. The genome of each species is designed as per need and efficiency. This is diversity.

This is true with all five kingdoms of life that is monera, protista, fungi, plantae and animalia.

What can you infer about the available matter and energy at each level?

Answers

Answer:

Matter and energy are distributed differently in different ecosystems. For example, a single tree in a rain forest would be greatly outnumbered by the primary and secondary consumers, such as the insects and birds, that live on that tree. The upper layers of the pyramid of numbers would be larger than the bottom layer representing the single tree.

The pedigree below shows the inheritance of a dominant allele of a gene in a family over several generation. Circles represent females and squares represent males. Shaded symbols indicate individuals carrying the allele. The pedigree suggest that the gene is on a nuclear chromosome, and not on a mitochondrial DNA, because A) mitochondrial genes are not heritable B) mitochondrial mutations cannot produce dominant traits C) maternal mitochondrial mutations are inherited by all of a mother's offspring D) mitochondrial DNA is circular, whereas chromosomal DNA is linear

Answers

Complete question:

You will find the pedigree in the attached files

Answer:

The correct option is C) maternal mitochondrial mutations are inherited by all of a mother's offspring.

Explanation:  

Mitochondrial inheritance is one of the ways in which a disease or a trait might be inherited from the maternal line.

Most of the DNI is located in the nucleus, but there is also DNI in mitochondria. Sperm cells hardly carry mitochondria, so mitochondrial DNI is mostly inherited from the maternal side. If there exists any mutation in this DNI, the whole progeny of the mutated woman will be affected, as they will get the mother´s mitochondria carrying the mutation. On the contrary, if there is a man affected by a disease caused by a mutation in mitochondrial DNI, non of their descendants will get the disease.

In the exposed pedigree, we can see that the mother is affected by the disease, but the couple had two daughters, and only one of them was affected, while the other one was not. This tells us that the mutation occurred on a nuclear chromosome. If the mutated allele was in mitochondria, both daughters would be affected.

The pedigree suggests that the gene is on a nuclear chromosome, and not on a mitochondrial DNA because maternal mitochondrial mutations are inherited by all of a mother's offspring (Option C).

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a special type of genetic material that exhibits a matrilineal inheritance pattern.

In consequence, all genes (and mutations) contained in mtDNA will pass from the mother to her offspring.

It is for that reason that mtDNA is widely used in evolutionary studies (we can trace matrilineal lineage from mtDNA).

In conclusion, the pedigree suggests that the gene is on a nuclear chromosome, and not on a mitochondrial DNA because maternal mitochondrial mutations are inherited by all of a mother's offspring (Option C).

what is digestion? Starting from mouth, state the various steps involved in digestion

Answers

Mouth. Food starts to move through your GI tract when you eat. When you swallow, your tongue pushes the food into your throat. A small flap of tissue, called the epiglottis, folds over your windpipe to prevent choking and the food passes into your esophagus.

Esophagus. Once you begin swallowing, the process becomes automatic. Your brain signals the muscles of the esophagus and peristalsis begins.

Lower esophageal sphincter. When food reaches the end of your esophagus, a ringlike muscle—called the lower esophageal sphincter —relaxes and lets food pass into your stomach. This sphincter usually stays closed to keep what’s in your stomach from flowing back into your esophagus.

Stomach. After food enters your stomach, the stomach muscles mix the food and liquid with digestive juices. The stomach slowly empties its contents, called chyme, into your small intestine.

Small intestine. 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. As peristalsis continues, the waste products of the digestive process move into the large intestine.

Large intestine. Waste products from the digestive process include undigested parts of food, fluid, and older cells from the lining of your GI tract. The large intestine absorbs water and changes the waste from liquid into stool. Peristalsis helps move the stool into your rectum.

Rectum. The lower end of your large intestine, the rectum, stores stool until it pushes stool out of your anus during a bowel movement

Answer:

The gastrointestinal system starts in the mouth. In reality, as soon as you eat the first bite, digestion begins here. Chewing splits the meal into sections that are easier to eat, and saliva combines with food to start breaking down the body into a shape that you can consume and use.

Explanation:

The mechanism of digestion can be divided into various phases, such as mouth, stomach, small and large intestine.

A complicated mixture of mechanical and chemical processes are used in digestion. The mechanism includes food intake and push, mechanical or physical digestion, chemical digestion, absorption, and defeat.

11. Many plants use brightly colored flowers to attract insect pollinators.
Which is the MOST likely conclusion about a plant that has very small flowers that
are hard to see?
CLE

Answers

Answer: Pollen can be blown in the wind which the bees/other pollinators can follow to get to the flowers.

Explanation: Plants rely on bees and other insects to reproduce and so they have adapted, over time, to become more attractive to them. Bees are drawn to plants with open or flat tubular flowers with lots of pollen and nectar. A flower's scent can have particular appeal to bees, and its bright colors or pollen being blown in the wind may lure the bees in.

What impact on plants due to depletion of nitrates or nitrogen?

Nitrate plays very vital role in our ecosystem and such that due to presence of the nitrogen plants grow rapidly as well as it produces bigger size fruits and flowers. Plants absorb nitrates in water through their roots without nitrates, the amount of the chlorophyll in leaves reduces.

Nitrate has been a common inorganic ion found in plants that has required for proper growth and development. Many growers has been included the addition of the nitrates in their nutrient regiment to the stimulate plant growth. Plants has been acquire nitrate through the root intake from the soil and water around them.
