How do buffers play a role in
homeostasis in living things?
Answer:
Buffers are commonly used in living organisms to help maintain a relatively stable pH.
In biological systems, chemical buffers prevent sharp and sudden changes in pH.
In biology, homeostasis refers to stable conditions required for the survival of organisms.The pH is a scale used to determine how acidic/basic water is. The pH range from 0 to 14 ( a pH equal to 7 is neutral).In human blood normal pH is about 7.35 to 7.45. A sudden change in this value alters and negatively affects the homeostasis of the body.The carbonic acid-bicarbonate is the most important chemical buffer which is used for mantaining acid-base balance (homeostasis) in the blood.The blood pH can change due to respiratory acidosis/alkalosis and metabolic acidosis/alkalosis.In conclusion, chemical buffers prevent sharp and sudden changes in pH.

Explica brevemente en que consiste la teoría de la deriva continental y menciona los contenientes que se crearon a partir de la Pangea
Esta teoría hace referencia al movimiento actual de las placas que sustentan los continentes y que se desplazan a lo largo de millones de años. En toda la historia geológica de la Tierra, los continentes no han estado siempre en la misma posición. Existe una serie de evidencias que veremos posteriormente que ayudaron a Wegener a refutar su teoría. El movimiento se debe a que continuamente está formándose nuevo material procedente del manto. Este material se crea en la corteza oceánica

Answer:
All right reserved
Human skin color is a good example of polygenic (multiple gene) inheritance. Assume that three "dominant" capital letter genes (A, B and C) control dark pigmentation because more melanin is produced. The "recessive"alleles of these three genes (a, b & c) control light pigmentation because lower amounts of melanin are produced.

Here, from the cross of the purple and white flower, all offspring are purple, which indicates that the purple color is dominant in nature and is present in Option A.
What is Punnett Square?The Punnett square is a tool used to predict the probability of offspring inheriting specific alleles from their parents. If all of the offspring exhibit the same phenotype (such as purple flower color), it is likely that the parents both carried at least one dominant allele for that trait. This would mean that the purple flower color allele is dominant. Here, the parents are both purple and white, so all the offspring are dominant in nature.
Hence, from the cross of the purple and white flower, all offspring are purple, which indicates that the purple color is dominant in nature and is present in Option A.

why us a spirogyra called a thallus ? which types of nutrition does it show ?why?
Explanation:
a plant body that is not differentiated into stem and leaves and lacks true roots and a vascular system. hence spirogyra called a thallus.
Spirogyra is an example of Green algae , thus it prepare its own food by process of photosynthesis in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.So, its nutrition type is Autorophic.

To test how fertilizer affects tomato plants, a farmer divided a field of young
tomato plants into 10 plots of equal size. The farmer then put fertilizer on half
of the plots and no fertilizer on the other half of the plots. What is the control
group in this experiment?
Answer:
The plots with no fertilizer
Explanation:
In an experiment, the control group is used as a comparison for the experimental group (the group being actively changed and observed).
So, in this experiment, the control group is the plots with no fertilizer.
This acts as a good control group because it provides a normal standard to show the effect of fertilizer on the tomato plants.
So, the control group in this experiment are the plots with no fertilizer.

) An allosteric interaction between a ligand and a protein is one in which: (3 pts) A) binding of a molecule to a binding site affects binding of additional molecules to the same site. B) binding of a molecule to a binding site affects binding properties of another site on the protein. C) binding of the ligand to the protein is covalent. D) multiple molecules of the same ligand can bind to the same binding site. E) two different ligands can bind to the same binding site.
Answer:
B) binding of a molecule to a binding site affects the binding properties of another site on the protein.
Explanation:
In an allosteric interaction between a protein and a ligand, the ligand binds to a site in the protein. As a result, there is a change in the properties of other active sites on the protein. These active-site changes may or may not allow the protein to bind to other molecules. There is a change in the protein that affects the affinity of the active site for other molecules. The affinity on the active site increases if the protein binds to an activator and decreases if the protein binds to an inhibitor molecule.
When cells are damaged, they release proteins called ____ ?
inflammatory chemical signals that evoke local vasodilation
The Channel Islands are a series of small islands off the California coast. Each island has a genetically distinct population of foxes. Compare the population of foxes on one of these islands to the population of foxes in the forests of mainland California. Which is more likely to be impacted by genetic drift? Which is more likely to be at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
Answer:
The fox population on the Islands experiences genetic drift whereas foxes in the forests has Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
Explanation:
The fox population on the Islands experiences genetic drift because there is no chance of introduction of different type of foxes in these Islands which experiences less variation in the population of already existing foxes. Genetic drift is the change that occur in the frequency of an existing gene allele in a population due to random sampling of organisms. Genetic drift may cause gene variants to disappear completely with the passage of time which leads to reduce genetic variation. The foxes that is located in the mainland forest experiences Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

In the 1950s the structure of DNA was discovered by using models and x-ray chromatography currently science has used advanced technology to completely map out the genes in a human's body. What would be the best advantage of using this information?
Answer:
Gene therapy to correct defective genes that cause diseases.
Explanation:
Gene therapy refers to the procedure that involves the introduction of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) into the cells of an organism for the purpose of correcting abnormalities, such as a mutations or in other words to treat a genetic disease.Gene therapy entails bringing a normal and functional gene known as a trans-gene into a cell with altered gene. Another method can bring RNA capable of partially regulating or blocking the expression of an altered gene.The nucleic acids are introduced into the patient's cells by means of a viral vector or injected directly into the cells in the form of naked DNA.pls mark brainliest
