Why is the scientific method so important in science

Answers

Answer 1

The scientific method attempts to minimize the influence of bias or prejudice in the experimenter.

Bias is a disproportionate weight in favor of or against an idea or thing, usually in a way that is closed-minded, prejudicial, or unfair. In science a bias is a systematic error.

Explain mutations and how they can cause genetic disease

Answers

Answer:

A mutation is a change in a DNA sequence. Mutations can result from DNA copying mistakes made during cell division, exposure to ionizing radiation, exposure to chemicals
called mutagens, or infection by viruses. Germ line mutations occur in the eggs and sperm and can be passed on to offspring, while somatic mutations occur in body cells and are not passed on.

Mutation has been the source of many Hollywood movies, but it's really a simple process of a mistake made in a DNA sequence as it's being copied. Some of that's just the background noise that DNA copying is not perfect, and we should be glad of that or evolution couldn't operate. But mutation can also be induced by things like radiation or carcinogens in a way that can increase the risk of cancers or birth defects. But it's pretty simple; it's basically an induced misspelling of the DNA sequence.
That's a mutation.


When a variant alters a protein that plays a critical role in the body, it can disrupt normal development or cause a health condition. A condition caused by variants in one or more genes is called a genetic disorder. In some cases, gene variants are so severe that they prevent an embryo from surviving until birth.

How is the energy stored in ATP released?
A.) ATP bonds with oxygen atoms
B.) Breaking the chemical bond between the 1st and 2nd phosphate
C.) Breaking the chemical bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate
D.) The energy in an ATP molecule doesn’t need to be “released”

Answers

Answer:

When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work

Describe the roles of the soil organisms in the carbon cycle​

Answers

Soils play a vital part in the global carbon cycle since carbon is so important for life on Earth. Microbes feed on the dead organic matter, which respire and release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
What is Carbon cycle?

Carbon cycle is a biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the different components of the Earth.

Carbon cycle along with the Nitrogen cycle and the Water cycle, comprises a sequence of events that are key to make Earth capable of sustaining life.

It describes the movement of carbon as it is recycled and reused throughout the biosphere, as well as long-term processes of carbon sequestration to and release from carbon sinks.

The terrestrial carbon cycle is dominated by the balance between photosynthesis and respiration.

Carbon is transferred from the atmosphere to soil via ‘carbon-fixing’ autotrophic organisms, mainly photosynthesizing plants and also photo- and chemoautotrophic microbes that synthesize atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) into organic material.

Fixed carbon is then returned to the atmosphere by a variety of different pathways that account for the respiration of both autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms.

The reverse route includes decomposition of organic material by ‘organic carbon-consuming’ heterotrophic microorganisms that utilize the carbon of either plant, animal or microbial origin as a substrate for metabolism, retaining some carbon in their biomass and releasing the rest as metabolites or as CO2 back to the atmosphere.

What is the role of soil organisms in the Carbon Cycle?

Soil Organisms or Microbes are critical in the process of breaking down and transforming dead organic material into forms that can be reused by other organisms and thus the microbial enzyme systems involved are viewed as key ‘engines’ that drive the Earth's biogeochemical cycles.

Soil microbes essentially transfer carbon between environmental compartments to fulfil their fundamental goal: survival through reproduction.

Thus, microbes utilize different organic and inorganic forms of carbon as carbon and energy sources.

How does an mRNA strand reach the site for Translation?
A. It moves across the membrane through Active Transport
B. It exits the Nucleus through a Nuclear Pore
C. It is already where it needs to be, Translation occurs as soon as the mRNA is processed
D. A tRNA molecule carries it to the Ribosome

Answers

The strand of mRNA passes from the A to the P sites of the ribosome before exiting at the E site. At the A site, tRNA molecules connect to the codons of mRNA before moving to the P site, where their amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.

The correct answer is B: it exits the nucleus through a nuclear pore.

How is reproduction different than the other five characteristics of living cells?

Answers

Answer:

because reproduction is nature gifted and it is the way to increase population but living cells are the cells which keeps us alive

Reproduction differs from the other five characteristics of living cells because of the ability to replicate for continued existence.

The characteristics of living things include -MR NIGER D(acronym to remember)

Movement RespirationNutritionIrritabilityGrowthExcretionReproductionDeath

Now Reproduction differs from all the others because while others are processes that organisms need for existence or survival,Reproduction on the other hand is the reason for the continuation of existence of species(creation of a copy).  

Without reproduction,  Living organisms would go extinct and  would not be able to replicate themselves .

Which of the following would not be facilitated diffusion?
A: A water molecule passes through a semi permeable membrane
B: A large glucose molecule enters the cell through a pore protein
C: An amino acid exit the cell through an integral protein
D: A chlorine ion (CI-) unlocks a protein channel, and passes through

Answers

Answer:

A. A water molecule passes through a semi permeable membrane

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of a molecule without any assistance from a protein or protein channel.

In facilitated diffusion, a molecule will diffuse by itself through a semi permeable membrane, such as the cell membrane.

Answer choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they are all examples of facilitated diffusion. The molecules required assistance from a protein.

Answer choice A is correct because the water molecule was able to pass through by itself.

So, the correct answer is A. A water molecule passes through a semi permeable membrane
