Separation of the sister chromatids

which of the following statements about glucose, galactose, and fructose is most likely true?

Which of the following communities is most likely to be the most stable

The one with high species diversity

Beaked whales feed at various depths, but they defecate at the ocean's surface. Nitrogen-rich whale feces deposited in surface waters supply nutrients for algae that are eaten by surface-dwelling fish. Which of the following best predicts what would happen if the whale population decreased?

The surface fish populations would decline due to reduced populations of algae.

Water 's unique properties are a result of

Hydrogen bonds

Which of the following best explains how higher concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus contribute to eutrophication?

Algae require nitrogen and phosphorus to build macromolecules, so higher concentrations of these nutrients can result in algal blooms.

Structures of carbohydrates?

Monomers, chains of monomer and branched structure

Amylase is an enzyme that converts carbohydrate polymers into monomers. Glycogen synthase is one of the enzymes involved in converting carbohydrate monomers into polymers. Which of the following best explains the reactions of these enzymes?

Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.

which of the following is an example of a density independent limitation on a population

At higher temperatures, more tomato plants in a population become infested with nematodes than at lower temperatures.

What is a feature in organic compounds not in inorganic compounds

Carbon atoms covalently bonded

The dash line on the graph represents

Which of the following statements correctly describes a typical trend during the initial stages of succession in a terrestrial ecosystem?

Diversity of plant species increases.

On what point on the curb in the diagram best represents a carrying capacity of the environment

E (It shows a point at the very top of the curve)

Which of the following best explains why there are seldom more than five trophic levels in a food chain?

Energy is lost from each trophic level.

Which of the following observation best represents a mutualistic relationship

Flowers produce nectar that be together to make honey and in the process of bees pollinate flowers

experiment in which a dialysis-tubing bag is filled with a mixture of 3% starch and 3% glucose and placed in a beaker of distilled water, as shown below. After 3 hrs, glucose can be detected in the water outside the dialysis-tubing bag, but starch cannot...if instead of the bag, a potato slice were placed in the beaker of distilled water, which of the following would be true of the potato slice?

Gain mass

Process by which a gas from atmosphere is obtained by plants and used to build lipids

Gas is directly obtained by plants as part of the carbon cycle

Graph

Intermittent streams Only

An overlap in the niches of two species will most likely result in

Interspecific competition

Which statement is the most accurate description of the reaction shown in the following figure?

It represents a polypeptide chain that is broken down through a hydrolysis reaction.

Long-term exposure to extended periods of bright light after sunset is most likely to affect a person in which of the following ways.

Melatonin synthesis will be inhibited, and the person will have difficulty sleeping.

Which part of the amino acid most likely contributes to the hydrophobic behavior of this region of the polypeptide?

Methyl (CH3) group.

Nitrogen will be incorporated into nucleic acids.

Root tip

Paired chromatids will separate

Based on the molecular structures shown in the figure, which molecule is likely to be solid at room temperature?

Palmitic acid, because the absence of carbon-carbon double bonds allows the molecules to pack closely together; double bonds increase fluidity, which is why unsaturated fats are liquid

Birth rate; 0.22 death rate 0.12 population 13 monkeys assuming no immigration or immigration which of the following best describes the change in population size that occur over the next year

Population will increase because more monkeys being born every single year then are dying

Which of the following best describes a likely result of tropical rainforest deforestation

Populations of plants and animals or decrease as more rain forest disappears lead to a decrease in biodiversity
