Many plants have waxy coatings on some surfaces. This coating reduces water loss because it is not water-permeable. This waxy coating is which of the following types of organic molecule?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Chemically, it consists of hydrophobic organic compounds, mainly straight-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons with or without a variety of substituted functional groups. The main functions of the epicuticular wax are to decrease surface wetting and moisture loss.

The condition of ketoacidosis is Select one: a. a potentially fatal buildup of acetoacetate or 3-hydroxybutyrate lowering blood pH. b. due to a lowered production of ketone bodies than is normal. c. the increase in pH of the cells due to ketone body production. d. only found when anaerobic catabolism of fat occurs.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option A ( a potentially fatal buildup of acetoacetate or 3-hydroxybutyrate lowering blood pH.)

Explanation:

Ketoacidosis results in a type of body metabolic state where the urine concentrations are high in ketone bodies, such as acetoacetic acid , 3-hydroxybutyrate. Fatty acids are converted to ketone bodies, resulting in a very high level of ketone bodies which automatically lowers the blood pH.

Ketoacidosis is of different types, Diabetic ketoacidosis, alcoholic ketoacidosis, starvation ketoacidosis. They are all associated with the accumulation of ketone bodies within the bloodstream. The underlying disease  common with ketoacidosis is Diabetes.

A cell that has 6 chromosomes in the G2 phase will have how many sister chromatids during that same phase

Answers

Answer:

12 chromatids.

Explanation:

If a cell has 6 chromosomes in the G2 phase will have 12 sister chromatids during that same phase because replication of chromosomes occurs which produces two exact copies of each chromosomes. Then 6 chromatids are distributed in one daughter cell while the other 6 chromatids are distributed in other daughter cell and finally the cell division occurs.

c. in humans, for every trait we can only have two alleles. but that trait can be controlled by many alleles. there are no limits on how many alleles can control a trait.
d. being diploid means that humans cannot mask the effects of recessive alleles. humans always show both alleles in their phenotypes and genotypes
e. if humans were diploid we would only have one allele per trait
Helpppp pleaseee

Answers

Answer:

d. being diploid means that humans cannot mask the effects of recessive alleles. humans always show both alleles in their phenotypes and genotypes

Explanation:

Being diploid means humans carry two sets of chromosomes. Since we have both dominant and recessive gene types, humans can mask the effect of recessive alleles since the dominant trait will be seen in the phenotype or genotype since it is a dominant gene. The effect of the recessive allele will show up only if both diploid genes are recessive.

Answers

Answer:

Due to isolated before mammals evolve.

Explanation:

There are many endemic plants and birds in New Zealand, but no native mammals because New Zealand is an island which isolated from Gondwana which is a supercontinent about 85 million years ago. Before mammals evolved, the New Zealand splits and go away from the Gondwana. So due to water only those mammals that can swim or fly colonized in New Zealand but not the land living mammals.

What is the relationship between genes DNA and proteins

Answers

Answer:

Although you might have heard people talk about a gene for red hair, green eyes or other characteristics, it's important to remember that genes code for proteins, not traits. While your genetic makeup does indeed determine physical traits like eye color, hair color and so forth, your genes affect these traits indirectly by way of the proteins created via DNA.

Hopefully, this answer helped! :D

Answer:

Most genes contain the information require to make proteins. The type of RNA that contains the information needed to make protein is called a messenger RNA or mRNA and it carries the message from the DNA out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm

which term names part of the peripheral nerves system A spinal cord B brain C sensors​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ Sensors}}[/tex]

Explanation:

There are two divisions of the nervous system: the central and peripheral.

The central nervous system (CNS) is made up of the brain and spinal cord. This section processes information gathered from the sensory organs.

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is divided into the autonomic and somatic, with different functions. Regardless of the subdivision, the PNS is made up of all the nerves and sensory receptors. The nerves are connected to the brain and spinal cord, which allows them to pass information from the PNS (where it is gathered ) to the CNS (where it is processed).

So, the spinal cord (choice A) and brain (choice B) are parts of the central nervous system, not peripheral. The correct answer must be C. sensors

Energy conversion within a plant cell would be limited most severely by removal of the cell's - A mitochondria B chloroplasts C ribosomes D endoplasmic reticulum​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is Mitochondria. I took the test and that's the correct answer.

Energy conversion within a plant cell would be limited most severely by removal of the cell's  by mitochondria.

What is mitochondria?

Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles (mitochondrial, singular) that produce most of the chemical energy required for biochemical reactions in cells.

The chemical energy produced by mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Mitochondria contain their own small chromosomes. In general, mitochondria, and thus mitochondrial DNA, are inherited only from the mother.

Therefore, Energy conversion within a plant cell would be limited most severely by removal of the cell's  by mitochondria.
