Answer:
The correct answer is proteins.
Explanation:
The exotoxins are proteinaceous in nature, they are the toxins, which are discharged from a living bacterium and are also discharged at the time of bacterial lysis. The exotoxins harm humans, however, not all exotoxins generated harm human beings.
Some are even created to perform an essential function in bacteria physiology like regulating functions of the cell, resisting bacteriophages, or quorum sensing. The three prime kinds of exotoxins are type I exotoxins or superantigens, type II toxins or exotoxins that damage host cell membranes, and type III toxins or A-B toxins that interfere with the function of the host cell.

In seed drilling method, seeds are sowing in lines while in broadcast, seeds are sown in every part of the field.
A scientist thinks that a certain chemical is a mutagen. She exposes plant cells to a large amount of this chemical in the laboratory.
Which statement best provides evidence that the substance is a mutagen?
The cells die within hours of being exposed to the chemical.
The cells grow more quickly than those that were not exposed to the chemical.
The cells change after being exposed to the chemical, and this change is passed to the next generation of cells.
The cells continue to divide at the same rate as before they were exposed to the chemical.
Answer:
The cells change after being exposed to the chemical, and this change is passed to the next generation of cells.
Explanation:
A mutation is any change, whether big or small, that occurs to the nucleotide sequence of a gene in a cell as caused by mistake during replication or induced by a mutation causing substance. These mutation-causing substances are called MUTAGEN.
A MUTAGEN is any substance that causes genetic mutation in an organism's cell. These changes in the nucleotide sequence can affect one or more phenotypic characteristics of the affected organism, which is also passed to offsprings because it is a genetic change.
Hence, a plant cell exposed to this mutagen will be induced to mutate.
Hence, the cells changing after being exposed to the chemical, which is also passed to the next generation of cells best provides explanation that the chemical is a MUTAGEN.

List some characteristics of each type of seismic wave. Include what type of material (solids, liquids, or both) each can travel through. Primary wave: Secondary wave: Love wave: Rayleigh wave:
Answer:
The primary wave or the P wave is the fastest kind of seismic wave. These waves can travel through the fluids like the liquid or the water layers of the Earth, and solids rocks. It pulls and pushes the rock it moves through similar to the sound waves that pull and pushes the air. These waves are also called compressional waves, due to the pulling and pushing they do.
The secondary wave is also known as the S wave is slower in comparison to a P wave, and possess the tendency to move through the solid rock, however, not through any kind of liquid medium. The characteristic of the S wave helped seismologists to conclude that the outer core of the Earth is a liquid. The S waves help in moving the particles of rock side to side perpendicular to the direction of the wave or up and down.
The Love wave and Rayleigh waves are the two kinds of surface waves. These waves possess lower frequency in comparison to the P and S waves. Of the surface waves, the Love waves are the fastest surface wave and move the ground from side to side.
On the other hand, a Rayleigh wave rolls around the ground similar to the rolling of the waves across an ocean or a lake. Both these waves only travel through a solid medium.

Which one of the following statements about lysosomes is incorrect? If one of the many types of acid hydrolases found in the lysosome is nonfunctional, a lysosomal storage disease can develop. Lysosomes are acidic because they contain acid hydrolases. Lysosomes release the monomeric building blocks (like amino acids and nucleotides) into the cell. Autophagosomes form in the cytosol around old or broken down organelles; later, the autophagic vesicle fuses with a lysosome. Resident lysosomal proteins display a mannose-6-phosphate group which targets them to a late endosome.
Answer:
B. Lysosomes are acidic because they contain acid hydrolases.
Explanation:
Lysosomes are small cell organelles that float outside nucleus. Lysosomes are present in the cytosol of the cells.
Lysosomes are acidic in nature having pH below 5 because of proton pumping through the plasma membrane to maintain this acidic pH.
This acidic nature of lysosomes play a role in fight against diseases.
Hence, the correct option is "B".

has released pollution into the forest. How can genetic diversity help the fly population survive
pollution? (4 points)
Will give brainliest
Answer:
Genetic diversity can and will allow the flies to adapt differently, and learn how to survive with the pollution in the air. There may also be different traits that help them survive the pollution.
Explanation:
If they were all the same they could be quickly killed off and may never have the chance to adapt the the changing environment around them.
Answer:
Genetic diversity can increase the chance of the fly's population to better adapted or resistant to pollution.
Explanation:
Genetic diversity refers to the variation among the genes contained in a particular species or organism.
Genetic diversity will help the fly population to survive an exposure to pollution from a factory by increasing their adaptation to the pollution. It is very likely that some of the fly population would contain allelic variation that will help them resist the effect of pollution in the forest. The surviving flies will produce off springs that will carry the set of resistant genes.

Which of the following statements regarding the fossil record is FALSE? Group of answer choices The fossil record does not contain any fossil remains of plants, only animals Not every minute of Earth’s history is recorded in the rock record Paleontologists have not yet found all the fossils that are in the rocks Not all organisms have a high preservation potential
Answer:
The statement, that is, the fossil record does not contain any fossil remains of plants, only animals is false.
Explanation:
Any trace of past life is termed as the fossil. It can be an organism's remains like shells, plants, bones, or teeth. Any activity of an organism like burrows, footprints, and feces can be known as a fossil record. Five different ways by which the formation of a fossil takes place are natural casts, permineralization, trace fossils, amber preserved, and preserved remains.
The formation of a fossil distinctly takes place, however, the majority of them formed when an animal or plant dies in a watery environment and gets buried underneath the silt and mud. In the process, the soft tissues quickly get decompose and leave behind the shells or hard bones. With time accumulation of sediments takes place over the top and solidifies into a rock.
The cholera bacterium was first identified as a disease-causing agent through the groundbreaking work of Dr. John Snow in London in 1854. Dr. Snow mapped the incidence of disease and found that it clustered around a particular water pump. How did he make the causal connection between that pump and the disease
Answer:
Dr. John Snow in London in 1854 discovered that the water where the cholera outbreak was prevalent was the same water used in other places. He came to a conclusion that it must be as a result of the pipes transporting the water. The pipes were found to have sewage surrounding them which made the water contaminated.
When the pipes were removed from the sewage surroundings the contamination, sickness and death rates reduced drastically.

What event gave Darwin the idea for his theory of Evolution?
Answer:the idea that species change over time, give rise to new species, and share a common ancestor.
Explanation:
to better cope with environment
Natural selection gave Darwin the idea for theory of evolution where organisms produce more offspring which able to survive in their environment.
What is natural selection?Natural selection is an evolutionary mechanism. Lifeforms that are better adapted to their surroundings are more likely to flourish and pass on the genes that helped them thrive. Species alter and deviates as a result of this process.
Natural selection, Darwin proposed, is a mechanism for evolution in which heritable traits that help support life reproduce and survive become more prevalent in a population over time.
Darwin and a scholarly colleague, Alfred Russel Wallace, posited that evolution occurs as a result of a phenomenon known as natural selection. According to natural selection theory, organisms generate more offspring than can survive in their environment.
Thus, the answer is natural selection.

Cocklebur will not flower if exposed to 8 hours of dark and 16 hours of light. It will flower if exposed to 16 hours of dark and 8 hours of light. However, if the 16 hours of dark is interrupted with a brief period of light the cocklebur will not flower. What triggers cocklebur to flower
Answer:
Photoperiodism
Explanation:
The process explained in the question is called "Photoperiodism" which refers to the plants' reaction to the length of the dark and light period in a day.
When the dark period is interrupted with a certain period of artificial lighting, the plant thinks that the day had a longer period where it's "light" than it is "dark" so it gets tricked into flowering. Same concept can be applied in reverse for the plants who flower during longer periods of dark.
