Answer the following question given this paragraph: The components of a mixture keep their own identity when they combine. Therefore, they usually can be easily separated again. Their different physical properties are used to separate them. For example, oil is less dense than water, so a mixture of oil and water can be separated by letting it stand until the oil floats to the top. Other ways of separating mixtures are shown in Figure below and in the videos below. Q: The components of what keep their own identity when they combine and can usually be easily separated? Choices: - alloy - solution - compound - mixture A:
mixture

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Asexual reproduction can be very rapid. This is an advantage for many organisms. It allows these organisms to crowd out other organisms that reproduce more slowly. Bacteria, for example, may divide several times per hour. Under ideal conditions, 100 bacteria can divide to produce millions of bacterial cells in just a few hours. However, most bacteria do not live under ideal conditions. If they did, the entire surface of the planet would soon be covered with them. Instead, their reproduction is kept in check by limited resources, predators, and their own wastes. This is true of most other organisms as well. Q: Bacteria may divide several what an hour? Choices: - cells - hosts - days - times A:
(Answer)
times
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The unique sequence for every protein is ultimately determined by the gene encoding the protein. A change in nucleotide sequence of the gene's coding region may lead to a different amino acid being added to the growing polypeptide chain, causing a change in protein structure and function. In sickle cell anemia, the hemoglobin chain (a small portion of which is shown in Figure 3.26) has a single amino acid substitution, causing a change in protein structure and function. Specifically, the amino acid glutamic acid is substituted by valine in the chain. What is most remarkable to consider is that a hemoglobin molecule is made up of two alpha chains and two beta chains that each consist of about 150 amino acids. The molecule, therefore, has about 600 amino acids. The structural difference between a normal hemoglobin molecule and a sickle cell moleculewhich dramatically decreases life expectancyis a single amino acid of the 600. What is even more remarkable is that those 600 amino acids are encoded by three nucleotides each, and the mutation is caused by a single base change (point mutation), 1 in 1800 bases. Q: What determines the unique sequence for every protein? Choices: - form encoding - space encoding - variation encoding - gene encoding A:
Ans: gene encoding

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Transcription takes place in three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. The steps are illustrated in Figure below . Q: Initiation, elongation, and termination are the three steps of what? Choices: - mutation - respiration - differentiation - transcription A:
(A).
transcription
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: The boiling points of liquid also correlate to the strength of the intermolecular forces. Recall that diethyl ether has weak dispersion forces, which meant that the liquid has a high vapor pressure. The weak forces also mean that it does not require a large an input of energy to make diethyl ether boil and so it has a relatively low normal boiling point of 34.6C. Water, with its much stronger hydrogen bonding, has a low vapor pressure and a higher normal boiling point of 100C. Q: The boiling points of liquid also correlate to the strength of which forces? Choices: - centrifugal - supramolecular - gravitational - intermolecular A:

Ans:intermolecular
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Within the microsporangium, the microspore mother cell divides by meiosis to give rise to four microspores, each of which will ultimately form a pollen grain (Figure 32.7). An inner layer of cells, known as the tapetum, provides nutrition to the developing microspores and contributes key components to the pollen wall. Mature pollen grains contain two cells: a generative cell and a pollen tube cell. The generative cell is contained within the larger pollen tube cell. Upon germination, the tube cell forms the pollen tube through which the generative cell migrates to enter the ovary. During its transit inside the pollen tube, the generative cell divides to form two male gametes (sperm cells). Upon maturity, the microsporangia burst, releasing the pollen grains from the anther. Q: Within the microsporangium, the microspore mother cell divides by meiosis to give rise to four microspores, each of which will ultimately form this? Choices: - zygote - sperm cell - ova - pollen grain A:
pollen grain
