Answer:
The age difference between the oldest and the youngest is 48.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
The ratio of the ages of Kisii (K) and Esinam (E) is 3:5.
The ratio of the ages of Esinam (E) and Larry (L) is 3:5.
The sum of the ages of all three is 147.
Since the age of Esinam is common in both ratios, we find the lowest common multiple (LCM);
LCM of 3,5 = 15.
Hence, the ratio of the three ages is now;
K:E:L = 9:15:25
Let their ages be denoted by x;
[tex]K:E:L = 9x:15x:25x[/tex]
The sum of all three ages is;
9x + 15x + 25x = 147
49x = 147
x = 147/49
x = 3.
To find the age difference between the oldest and the youngest;
The oldest is Esinam = 25x
The youngest is Kisii = 9x
Therefore, 25x - 9x = 16x
Substituting the value of x, we have;
x = 3; 16x = 16(3) = 48.
The age difference between the oldest and the youngest is 48.

Answer:
OA
Explanation:
Chemical energy refers to the energy that is released with reactions involving chemicals. Cellular respiration takes glucose(a five carbon sugar) and breaks it down using glycolysis, then makes ATP(adenisine-triphosphate)(an essential chemical to the energy of life) using the krebs cycle and the electron transport train. This is all to get a surplus ATP, which is a useable CHEMICAL ENERGY source. This energy can be diverted to any system in the body, including the muscular system. Then, the muscles are used MECHANICALLY(look at the types of muscle levers in anatomy) to acheive work, thanks to the CHEMICAL ENERGY produced in cellular respiration. Thus, the answer in OA.

Consider an experiment where you digest a DNA molecule with restriction enzyme BclI. You resolve the products of the digest by gel electrophoresis. Then, you cut out each of the resulting two bands from the gel and sequence the DNA. The sequencing results return two DNA segments.
Segment 1
5′ CCGCGGT 3′
3′ GGCGCCACTAG 5′
Segment 2
5′ GATCAGGATCC 3′
3′ TCCTAGG 5′
1. What is the sequence of the BclI recognition site?
2. What type of ends do the products have?
Answer:
This BclI restriction enzyme recognizes and cut at T / CTAG nucleotide sequences.
Explanation:
5′ CCGCGGT 3′
3′ GGCGCCACTAG 5′
Segment 2
5′ GATCAGGATCC 3′
3′ TCCTAGG 5′
The BclI enzyme generates sticky ends, it means that the enzyme recognises and cuts nucleotide sequences without complementary bases, which also have weak hydrogen bonds. The sticky ends are then generated when an enzyme produces unpaired nucleotide ends. Nonetheless, restriction enzymes generally produce blunt ends, i.e., both strands cut at the same site.

The bond that forms between two glucose molecules are called
1. Peptide bonds
2. Ester bonds
3. Phosphodiester bonds
4. Glycosidic bonds
5. Hydrogen bonds
Answer:
Glycosidic Bonds
Explanation:
Glycosidic Bonds are a type of covelant bond that form between two or more 5 carbon sugar macro-molecules(like glucose). Hydrogen bonds are an attraction between hydrogen atoms, not a real sharing or trading of electrons, as seen with ionic and covelant bonds, while they are essestial to life in water, they generally do not have a strong effect in the building of macromolecules. Therefore, that is incorrect. Phosphodiester, ester, and peptide bonds all occur between different macro-molecules, none of which include glucose(5 carbon sugar). Therefore, the answer is #4.

Which describes a eukaryotic cell, but not a prokaryotic cell? a. uses DNA to control cell activities b. is surrounded by a cell membrane c. makes and uses proteins d. contains DNA in a nucleus
Answer: Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells and have a “true” nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and rod-shaped chromosomes. The nucleus houses the cell's DNA and directs the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes.
So..the answer should be D. Eukaryotic cells have a true membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotes do not
All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound structures. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound structures called organelles.
So..it can't be C. or A. or even B.

Based on the objective you should feel comfortable calculating expected genotype frequencies when given observed allele frequencies. You should also be able to compare expected genotype frequencies from HWE to observed frequencies and determine if evolution is occurring.Here's a sample problem. You can do this without a calculator!Let's take the noob gene, a gene with two known alleles that determines feather color in the eastern lark. The two alleles, let's call them delta and gamma, can be sequenced. In fact, looking at a population in southern GA, you discover that 60% of the alleles in the population are the delta allele.1. What is the percentage of the gamma allele in the population?2. Even more interesting, based on HWE what is the expected frequency of the population that is homozygous gamma? 3. Now, after surveying an isolated population of eastern larks, you find that 20% of the population is homozygous gama (gamma gamma), 65% heterozygous (gamma delta) and 10% homozygous delta (delta delta) and 5% of the population is a previously undescribed genotype - zeta zeta (homozygous zeta). What can you conclude about evolution in the population and why? If evolution is occurring, which mechanism(s) would be responsible?
Answer and Explanation:
60% of the alleles in the population are the delta allele
1. What is the percentage of the gamma allele in the population?
According to Hardy-Weinberg, the allelic frequencies in a locus are represented as p and q, referring to the allelic dominant or recessive forms. The genotypic frequencies after one generation are p² (Homozygous dominant), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous recessive). Populations in H-W equilibrium will get the same allelic frequencies generation after generation. The sum of these allelic frequencies equals 1, this is p + q = 1.
In the same way, the sum of genotypic frequencies equals 1, this is
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
Being
p the dominant allelic frequency, q the recessive allelic frequency, p²the homozygous dominant genotypic frequency q² the homozygous recessive genotypic frequency 2pq the heterozygous genotypic frequencyAccording to the sum of the allelic frequencies
p + q = 1
1 equals 100%
100% ------ 1
60%------0.6
40%------0.4
The percentage of gamma allele in the population is 40%.
2. what is the expected frequency of the population that is homozygous gamma?
The genotypic frequencies, F, after one generation are p² (Homozygous dominant), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous recessive).
F(gamma)= p²= 0.4²=0.16 =16%
F(delta)= q²= 0.6²=0.36 = 36%
F (gamma-delta) = 2xp2q= 2 x 0.4 x 0.6 = 0.48 = 48%
3. 20% of the population is homozygous gama (gamma gamma), 65% heterozygous (gamma delta) and 10% homozygous delta (delta delta) and 5% of the population is a previously undescribed genotype - zeta zeta (homozygous zeta). What can you conclude about evolution in the population and why? If evolution is occurring, which mechanism(s) would be responsible?
20% gamma-gamma
10% delta-delta
65% gamma-delta
5% zeta-zeta
This population has different genotypic frequencies with respect to the population in southern GA:
The gamma genotypic frequency is a little bit higher in the isolated population (16% vs 20%)
The delta genotypic frequency is considerably lower in the isolated population (36% vs 10%)
The heterozygotic genotypic frequency is also higher in the isolated population (18% vs 64%)
It appeared a new phenotype in the isolated population, probably due to a mutation in one of the genes. We can assume that this is a new mutation because its frequency is still low (5%).
Maybe, the mutation occurred in an individual of the isolated population, and with time, this mutation increased its frequency, up to a point of being phenotypically visible. This could be a case of a bottleneck example.
The founder effect is a special case of genetic drift, where a few organisms of one population settles down in a new area carrying the genes of the original population.
Genetic drift is the random change in the allelic frequency in a population, from one generation to the other. The magnitude of this change is inversely related to the size of the original population. These changes produced by genetic drift accumulate in time, and eventually, some alleles get lost, while some other might get set.
Founder effect refers to the consequences that occur from the origin of a new population that derives from a small number of founder individuals that come from an ancestral bigger population. This small group shows poor genetic variation and a high possibility of expressing a peculiar allelic composition. Some mutation might occur and it can accumulate in time.

Why are fats considered as high energy compounds?
What is the function of mRNA?
What is the general formula for amino acids?
Answer:
1. Fats contain mostly C-H bonds, it has less oxygen therefore making it a high energy compound
2. mRNA plays a vital role in protein synthesis. It's a single stranded RNA molecule that contains genetic information that can be taken outside the nucleus (unlike DNA which cannot leave the nucleus). Its created during transcrption, and is used during translation to create proteins
3. (Look at image)
1. The organic molecules that contain esters of fatty acids and a mixture of compounds are called fats. They provide energy to the body for functioning. They provide slow energy but the most efficient energy.
The amount of calories supplied by fats is twice as compared to carbohydrates and proteins. The excess of fats is stored in the body for future purposes.
2. mRNA is a type of RNA and plays a vital role in the process of translation. It is a single-stranded molecule that contains genetic information transcripted from DNA and is transported out from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
The main function of mRNA is in protein synthesis. It helps in the formation of amino acid sequence that undergoes modification to form proteins.
3. The general formula of amino acid is [tex]\rm R-CH(NH_{2})-COOH[/tex].
The side chains of different amino acids vary accordingly. The structure consists of a carboxylic group along with an amino group and an organic side chain.

1. Gametes produced by the mother will be:
CI Ci cI ci by the combinantion of C, I, c, and i alelles present in mothers genotype.
2. Gametes produced by the father :
CI Ci by the combinantion of alleles present i genotype of father CCIi
3. probability of one of the offspring of these two chickens having pigmented feathers:
2/8 × 100 = 25% ( punnet is attached)
4. chicken with white feather in population of 100 chickens:
probability of being white × 100
probability of being white : 1 - 2/8
thus, (1-2/8) × 100 = 6/8 × 100
