Organisms that live in the tundra have developed unique adaptations that aid in their survival. Ursus maritimus has a variety of adaptations which enable it to survive in the tundra. It is the largest terrestrial carnivore, but it is also an excellent swimmer that spends much of its time in and near the water hunting its favorite food. It has large paws with small bumps to provide traction as it walks across the ice. Its fur is helpful as camouflage during the winter months, but not as helpful during the summer. Which organism has the adaptations described that enable it to survive in the tundra

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The organism that has the adaptations described that enable it to survive in the tundra is the POLAR BEAR.

Explanation:

ADAPTATION is defined as the process by which an organism becomes fitted to its environment thereby enabling the organism to live successfully and reproduce.

In any population, an organism is able to survive if it has features that help them to fit and compete successfully in that environment.

From the question, a typical example was given concerning the POLAR BEAR (Ursus maritimus) and it's best fitted environment which is the tundra.

The tundra is a type of biome that is treeless marshy vegetation which is composed mainly of dwarf shrubs. It's has a cold climate (Arctic region) with long icy winters and very short summer with an average temperature of 10°C.

Ursus maritimus has a variety of adaptations which enable it to survive in the tundra. These adaptations include:

--> The presence of a thick coat of insulated WHITE FUR: this helps it to survive the cold environment by acting as an effective insulator. The fur is also found at the base of its large paws with small bumps, which protects it against cold surfaces and provides its with a better grip of ice as it walks across it. It also gives it a concealing coloration making it unnoticed while it stalks its prey in the snow. These are the features that enables it survive the terrestrial environment if tundra.

--> it also has some aquatic adaptations which enables it to hunt it's favourite food which is seals. The presence of large front paws which are slightly webbed allows them swim for a long distance in search of food.

The sea otters can close their nostrils and their auditory passages in the water.

The fifth toe of each leg is longer, which allows them to swim more easily, but hinders their movement on land.

Their body has great agility to float, due to the excellent lung capacity of these otters, and the air that can trap...

They can walk but in a somewhat clumsy way, usually moving with small jumps.

Jesssica is blood type A and her husband Graham is blood type O. She is worried because they are pregnant and their future child has a rare disorder which will require him to need regular blood transfusions. Jessica worries that if their son ends up with type O blood, like his father, it will be hard to get the necessary regular blood transfusions because people with O blood can only accept O blood. What is the likelihood of their child having blood type O?

Answers

Answer:

- 50% probability if Jessica has genotype "iAi"

- 0% probability if Jessica has genotype "iAiA"

Explanation:

Blood group in humans is controlled by multiple alleles namely; iA, iB and i. iA and iB are codominant but both dominant over i. The following blood types and their respective genotypes are possible;

- Type A: iAiA or iAi

- Type B: iBiB or iBi

- Type AB: iAiB

- Type O: ii

According to this question, Jessica is blood type A (iAiA or iAi) and her husband Graham is blood type O (ii).

- If Jessica has a genotype iAi, the probability that they will give birth to a child with blood type O (ii) is 50% (see punnet square)

- If Jessica has a genotype iAiA, the probability that they will give birth to a child with blood type O (ii) is 0% (see punnet square).

The primers you used in lab amplified 145 base pairs that were adjacent, but not included in the repeat. If you used a different primer that only amplified 130 base pairs adjacent to a 14 base pair repeat, and you had 4 repeats in your product, what was the size of your final PCR product?

Answers

Answer:

186

Explanation:

The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a technique used in molecular biology to amplify small segments of DNA. This technique uses a pair of oligonucleotide sequences called 'primers' which bind to opposite strands of the heat-denatured DNA template in order to amplify this target DNA sequence. In this case, the DNA template is composed of a single unit of 130 base pairs (bp) and four repetitive units of 14 bp, so the final PCR product will have 186 bp >>> 130  bp + (14 bp x 4) = 130 + 56 = 186.

Which best describes how to classify water?
A It is an element because it is made
from a pure substance.
В
It is a compound because it is made
of a single kind of molecule.
© It is a mixture because it is composed
of more than one molecule.
D It is a solution because it is a
homogenous mixture of different
compounds.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Water is a compound and scientifically known as H[tex]_{2}[/tex]0 (2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen). Therefore, the answer is...

Not A because water is not an element of one pure substance; rather, it is a compound and can be broken down into two pure substances.Not B because the statement contradicts itself: a compound is made of different atoms and, thus, different molecules.Not C because a mixture contains different substances that are physically -- not chemically -- combined. And as we know, water is a compound, which means that its atoms are chemically bonded to one another. Or else it would just be 2 free hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen.D (yay!) because it is not the *most* accurate, but simply the best description of those provided. Water can be described as a homogenous (uniform in appearance) mixture because, minus the "mixture" part, that's what it is, essentially: a substance that looks pure but is really made of up different molecules.
