The molecular weight of methylene blue is 320 g/mol. The concentration of the original sample was 0.005 mg/ml in 10 ml. Determine the molarity (M) of your original sample and each dilution.

Original:
Dilution 1 (1:2 add 3mL of methylene blue + 3mL of water) :
Dilution 2 (1:4 use 3mL of of 1:2 solution + 3mL of water) :
Dilution 3 (1:8 use 3mL of 1:4 solution + 3 mL of water) :
Dilution 4 (1:10 use 0.5 ml of the original methylene blue + 4.5 mL of water) :

Please show all work!!

Directional selection acting upon a favored recessive allele:

a) fixates quickly because heterozygotes do hold an advantage

b) fixates quickly because heterozygotes don't hold an advantage

c) takes time to fixate because heterozygotes do hold an advantage

d) takes time to fixate because heterozgotes don't hold an advantage

e) none of the above

In lab this semester, we have examined several cellular molecules and activities including, but not limited to, cyclosis in Elodea, Protein concentration in various food sources, bovine serum albumin and the relationship between protein concentration and absorbance, Betacyanin and membrane permeability, B-galactosidase and enzyme function, yeast cell growth, and RNA production in cells.

Describe how one of more of the databases/programs utilized in this lab exercise (pBLAST, PDB, DeepLoc, KEGG) could be used to gain information about one of these processes or molecules. Be specific and explain your answer.

5. Glycolysis

a. The hydroxyl group on the sixth carbon on a glucose molecule is radiolabeled using O18. Please draw out the pathway showing where this radiolabel is in each step of the pathway.

b. In glycolysis, ATP molecules are produced. Please write out the reactions that utilize ATP as well as the ones that create ATP, and explain how many molecules of ATP are made in glycolysis.

c. A reaction is set up with 3-phosphoglycerate, where the phosphate atom is radiolabeled (P32) and incubated with phosphoglycerate mutase (unphosphorylated). Please draw the mechanism, and list the components of the reaction that may be radiolabeled after five minutes.

Kirby- Bauer Antimicrobic sensitivity

Please give a brief answer

Why is it necessary to consult the Kirby-Bauer Evaluation Table before reporting the sensitivity of a bacterium to a given antimicrobic?

For each statement below, indicate if it is TRUE or FALSE and explain why.

(a) All highly conserved stretches of DNA in the genome are transcribed into RNA.

(b) To find functionally important regions of the genome, it is more useful to compare species whose last common ancestor lived 100 million years ago rather than 5 million years ago.

(c) Most mutations and genome alterations have neutral consequences.

(d) Proteins required for growth, metabolism, and cell division are more highly conserved than those involved in development and in responding to the environment.

(e) Introns and transposons tend to slow the evolution of new genes.

Suppose that an animal inhales a radioactive isotope of oxygen whose location can be traced in the animal. Where would the radioactive oxygen atoms eventually show up?
