what came first the chicken or the egg?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

So the egg definitely came first.

Explanation:

Dinosaurs laid eggs, the fish that first crawled out of the sea laid eggs, and the weird articulated monsters that swam in the warm shallow seas of the Cambrian Period 500 million years ago also laid eggs. They weren't chicken's eggs, but they were still eggs.

When you breathe, the pressure inside the lungs is different than the pressure outside the lungs. This is an example of a(n) __________. When you breathe, the pressure inside the lungs is different than the pressure outside the lungs. This is an example of a(n) __________. concentration gradient pressure gradient electrical gradient temperature gradient

Answers

Answer:

pressure gradient

Explanation:

The correct answer would be pressure gradient.

A pressure gradient is created when there is a difference in the amount of pressure between two points or locations that are adjacent to one another.

In this case, the two locations that are adjacent to one another are the inside and outside of the lung. When one breathes in, the pressure inside the lung is more than that of the outside and the lung expands as a result. When we breathe out, the pressure outside is more than that of the inside and the lung collapses.

Many antibiotics work by preventing the proper synthesis of the peptidoglycan cell wall. These antibiotics are most likely to be effective against what types of bacteria

Answers

Answer: Gram-positive bacteria.

Explanation:

Gram-positive bacteria are those bacteria that stain dark blue or violet by Gram staining. This is due to the structure of the cell envelope, since they possess a cell wall composed of a thick layer of peptidoglycan, which surrounds the previous one. The cell wall is attached to the cytoplasmic membrane by lipoteichoic acid molecules. The peptidoglycan layer confers high resistance to these bacteria and is responsible for retaining the stain during Gram staining. Unlike gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria have a second lipid membrane outside the cell wall and a single peptidoglycan layer.

An antibiotic is a chemical substance produced by a living being or synthetically derived, which kills or prevents the growth of certain classes of sensitive microorganisms, such as bacteria. An antibiotic could be bacteriostatic if it prevents the growth of bacteria or bactericidal if it destroys them.

Antibiotics usually attack cell walls, such as β-lactams that act on the peptide chains of the bacterial cell wall. That is, they act by inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis. This is why gram-positive bacteria are susceptible to certain types of antibiotics because they possess a large amount of peptidoglycan.

During cellular respiration, the first CO2 is generated during _____ and the remaining carbons are given off as CO2 during _____.

Answers

Answer:

Glycolysis and Krebs cycle.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, the first carbondioxide gas is generated during glycolysis while the remaining carbons are given off as carbondioxide during Krebs cycle. During the process of glycolysis in cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized forming carbondioxide and water whereas during the Krebs cycle, the two carbon atoms of acetyl-CoA are released and each turns into a carbondioxide molecule.

Each of the following will result in complement activation EXCEPT Group of answer choices TLR binding to PAMP on the microbe. recognition of lipid-carbohydrate molecules on the surface of the microbe. lectin binding to mannose on the surface of the microbe. Antibody binding to antigen. All of these will result in activation of complement.

Answers

Answer:

TLR binding to PAMP on the microbe

Explanation:

The complement system is a group of proteins in the blood that enhance immune responses by complementing the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to mediate effector responses (e.g., lysis, activation of inflammation, opsonization, solubilization of immune complexes, etc). Complement can be activated through the recognition of microbes by soluble pattern-recognition molecules (i.e., lectin pathway) or antibodies (i.e., classical pathway). The classical pathway requires the formation of antigen-antibody complexes for its activation (it is a specific immune response). On the other hand, Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) are molecular receptors that recognize viral and bacterial products (i.e., pathogen-associated molecular patterns or PAMPs), which is a key defense mechanism from the innate immune system response.

Dominic made the table below to organize his notes about mixtures. A 1-column table. The first column labeled properties of mixtures has entries has no set composition, must have more than one state of matter, must have more than one substance. What mistake did Dominic make? The title should read “Properties of Solutions” because some mixtures do not have all of the properties listed. There is a definite recipe to make each mixture, so the composition of a mixture is set. Although it is possible to have more than one state, it is also possible to have only one state. A single substance can be used to make a mixture if the substance is composed of more than one element.

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

The plants are grouped formally into 12 phyla (phylum plural) and are collected in four groupings. These four groupings are based on the history of the evolution of important plant characteristics:

Nonvascular plants evolved earliest. They are distinct from the algae because they preserve the embryo inside of the reproductive structure after fertilization. There is no vascular tissue, xylem, and phloem for these plants to convey nutrients, water, and food. For example, moose, liverwort, and hornworts. These plants do not grow very high without vascular tissue.Vascular seedless plants have evolved into non-vascular tissue but no seeds. The fern, fern, club moss, and horsetails are examples. These plants could grow larger with vascular tissue.Gymnosperms have evolved into seeds but have no blooms. For example, redwood, fir, and cypress trees. Gymnosperms. Gymnos in Greek means "naked"; the gymnosperm seeds are bare, not floral.Flowers or angiosperms have developed into vascular tissue, seeds, and flowers. Angiosperm for example includes magnolia, roses, tulips, and tomatoes.

Why do biologists classify

Answers

Answer:

Biologists classify organisms because:

Classification allows us to understand diversity better.  It helps in the identification of living organisms as well as in understanding the diversity of living organisms. Classification helps us to learn about different kinds of plants and animals, their features, similarities and differences. It enables us to understand how complex organisms develop from simpler organisms.  They are grouped under different categories to understand and study the features, similarities and differences between different living organisms. It is essential to understand the inter-relationships among the different groups of organisms. Classification forms a base for the development of other biological sciences.

Explanation:

The nuclei (the structure inside a cell that contains DNA) of the cheek cells have been stained using a special dye so that they appear purple. What shape are they

Answers

Answer: Oval.

Explanation:

The nucleus of a cell is a membranous structure normally found in the center of eukaryotic cells and is where most of the cellular genetic material is found, organized in DNA molecules (deoxyribonucleic acid) associated with proteins such as histones, which make up the chromosomes.

The function of the nucleus is to maintain the integrity of the genes in the DNA and to regulate gene expression to control cellular activities. It then controls when DNA is transcribed into RNA (ribonucleic acid) and when it is exported to the cytoplasm to be translated into proteins.

The nucleus is composed of a nuclear envelope consisting of a double membrane that surrounds it, as well as pores that allow the passage of RNA for the regulation of gene expression.

The cells of the inner cheek are classified as non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. An epithelium is a tissue made up of joined cells that line the outer surface of the body and inner organs. Squamous cells are flat, scale-like, whereas stratified cells are arranged in multiple layers. Non-keratinized means that the cells constitute soft tissue found in the moist parts of our body, such as the mouth, stomach, among others. In a normal healthy cell, the nucleus is uniformly stained, oval in shape and smaller in relation to the cytoplasm.
