I took the test do I even gotta explain why-
Explanation:
You are working in a lab trying to identify a new organism. It looks like a plant, but it could be a fungus. Which of the following tests would NOT be useful in determining which it is?
A. Testing to see if part of the organism grows underground
B. Testing it for Chloroplasts
C. Testing it to see if it absorbs food from the soil
D. Testing it for Chitin
Testing to see if part of the organism grows underground would not be useful in determining whether it is a plant or a fungus.
How other tests would help in determining the organism?Testing it for chloroplastsPlant and green algal cells have a structure called a chloroplast, which is where photosynthesis takes place.A plastid is a sort of body that is formed like a disk, an oval, or a circle and is used to synthesize and store food. Chloroplasts are one type of plastids. The green color of chloroplasts sets them apart from other types of plastids.If the given organism shows a positive test for chloroplast then it is a plant otherwise fungus.Testing to see if it absorbs food from the soilAlmost the majority of the water and nutrients consumed by terrestrial plants are taken up by their roots from the soil.Therefore if the given organism absorbs nutrients from the soil then it is a plant.Testing it for ChitinMost fungi, contain chitin. Alpha-chitin makes up the majority of these fungi's cell walls.If the given organism shows a positive test for chitin then it is a fungus.

The Siamese cat breed has a light colored body and dark colored head, tail, and feet, all of which are called points. The Burmese cat breed has a dark colored body and points that are almost the same color as the body. Crossing Siamese with Burmese can produce the Tonkinese cat breed, which has coat and point color that is intermediate to the Siamese and Burmese parents.
In all three breeds, a temperature sensitive enzyme is responsible for the dark coloration of the points. However, it is active only at the extremes of the body where it is coolest. Select the statements that are true regarding the evidence of incomplete dominance and incomplete penetrance in these breeds.
a. Intermediate coat color in Tonkinese demonstrates incomplete dominance.
b. Development of points in Tonkinese demonstrates incomplete penetrance.
c. Light coat color in Siamese demonstrates incomplete penetrance.
d. Darker color at the extremes of the body in Tonkinese demonstrates incomplete dominance.
Answer:
Correct answer is A and B.
Explanation:
Because the Tonkinese breed has a coat that is intermediate to the coat color of the Siamese and Burmese, we can say that this demonstrates incomplete dominance which means that the dominant allele does not have the ability to completely mute the recessive allele in the phenotype.
This is also true because of the development points on the coat of the Tonkinese breed.
So the correct answer is A and B.

Which part of the plant and animal cells in the animals does cellular respiration take place
cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells takes place in the mitochondria. Both animal cells and plant cells depend on cellular respiration for their energy needs, because both animal cells and plant cells need ATP.
Which of the following examples of membrane transport requires energy from ATP?
a. Movement of Nations from a lower concentration inside the cell to a higher concentration outside of the cell
b. Movement of glucose molecules from a higher concentration outside of the cell to a lower concentration inside of the cell
c. Movement of water into a cell
d. None of the above
Answer:
Active transport uses energy to transport molecules across the plasma membrane. This uses energy from ATP. They also use pumps to get molecules in or out of the cell. Passive Transport does NOT use energy to transport molecules across the membrane.

A runner has a speed of 25 m/s. They see the finish line and speed up to 30 m/s. This happens in 5 seconds. If the runner has a mass of 75 kg, with what force did the runner cross the finish line? Show all work to receive full credit.
I know the answer is 75N but I don't know how to get 75N
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 25m/s
Final velocity = 30m/s
Time = 5m/s
Mass of runner = 75kg
Unknown:
Force to finish the race = ?
Solution:
Force is defined as a pull or push on a body. According to Newton's first law, we can mathematically express force as the product of mass and acceleration;
Force = mass x acceleration
But we know that acceleration is the change in velocity with time, so;
Acceleration = [tex]\frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity}{time}[/tex]
So, force;
Force = mass x [tex]\frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity}{time}[/tex]
Input the parameters and solve;
Force = 75 x [tex]\frac{30 -25}{5}[/tex] = 75N
The runner crosses the line with a force of 75N

In which column on the chart below would the information below best fit for a mode of reproduction, CANNOT REPRODUCE WITHOUT A HOST?
Answer:
B. Virus.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, since bacteria (A.) reproduce via asexual reproduction via mitosis and the animal (D.) and vegetal (C.) cells could reproduce via sexual or asexual reproduction depending on the organism, they do not need a host to start the replication of the DNA and therefore reproduce. In such a way, it is widely known that viruses need a host that facilitates the replication of their DNA or RNA (depending on the virus) since they only have their genetic information but they do not have neither the RNA nor the DNA polymerase that favor such process, that is why they need a host.

1. Identify the layer of the atmosphere that is constantly being hit by photons, has very low pressure, and temperatures that decrease from 120° Celsius to -80° Celsius as you move down through the layer.
Answer:
Mesosphere
Explanation:
The Mesosphere is a layer of the atmosphere that is above the Stratosphere and below the Thermosphere. This is the third layer of the atmosphere. Some of its characteristics include;
1. It is constantly being hit by photons: These photons are in the form of meteors that constantly hit this layer of the atmosphere. Meteors which are particles of dust release light energy that makes them visible to the human eyes as shooting stars.
2. The layer is characterized by very low pressure. This makes the air here thin and as the altitude increases, the air becomes very cold.
3. Temperatures decrease from 120° Celsius to -80° Celsius as you move down through the layer: The temperature in this layer decreases as the altitude increases.
If a person's blood pressure is too high or too low, how might the other organ systems in their body be affected?
Answer:
When blood pressure is too high, organs and blood vessels can be damaged. High blood pressure can even cause rupture of a blood vessel and lead to bleeding or other complications. When blood pressure is too low, not enough blood reaches all parts of the body.
