Fruit flies that breed true for normal wings, grey bodies and red eyes are crossed with flies that breed true for vestigial wings, black bodies and brown eyes.
All the resulting offspring have normal wings and grey bodies and red eyes. The offspring are then crossed with flies with vestigial wings, black bodies, and brown eyes.
The resulting offspring occur:
5 normal winged, black bodies, brown eyes
75 normal winged, black bodies, red eyes
343 vestigial winged, black bodies, red eyes
73 vestigial winged, grey bodies, brown eyes
6 vestigial winged, grey bodies, red eyes
77 normal winged, grey bodies, red eyes
68 vestigial winged, black flies, brown eyes
322 normal winged, grey bodies, brown eyes
A.Are all the genes in cis or trans configuration?
B.What is the order of the three genes?
C.How far apart are the genes for wing type and body color?
D.How far apart are the genes for wing type and eye color?
E.How far apart are the genes for body color and eye color?

1. Meat, eggs, and dairy are good sources of protein. When you eat these foods, proteins are digested and absorbed. Follow a protein through the digestion process from the mouth through to the intestines. What enzymes are involved in its digestion? What is the smallest unit that proteins are broken down into? Where are these products absorbed?
2. What are a few things proteins are used for in the body once they’ve been absorbed?
3. Once in the body, amino acids are absorbed by our cells and enter the amino acid pool. From here, a cell will draw from the pool to assemble the proteins it needs at that specific time. What will happen if one or more of the essential amino acids are missing?
4. Describe (in your own words) the four structural levels of a protein.
5. What is the relationship between a protein’s structure and its function? Explain how amino acids side chains impact protein structure and function.
6. DNA guides protein assembly. When there is a mutation in our DNA, the impact on the protein can vary. Explain why some mutations can cause no change to the protein and some can completely disrupt the function of the protein.
7. Your body prefers not to use proteins for energy, but it will as a last resort. Explain how amino acids are broken down to generate ATP in this scenario.
8. What happens to the nitrogen portion of the amino acid?
9. Your doctor measures your nitrogen balance and finds it is negative. What does this mean about how your body is using protein? How can you balance out your nitrogen levels?
10. If you decided to become a vegetarian or vegan, how would you ensure you were eating adequate protein? Think about not just the amount, but also the essential amino acids.
11. The RDA for protein is listed below. Calculate your own personal protein requirements and show your work for full credit. You will need to convert your weight to kg. There are 2.2 lbs in 1 kg.
Ex: a 50 kg adult would need 50 kg*0.8 g/kg = 40 g protein per day

i NEED TO FIND AN ARTICLE ABOUT USING OF ENERGY IN SUCH AS WORKING, EXERCISE, OR BEING SEDENTRY THEN SUMMERIZE IT
please help me to find an article and summarize it t( the using of energy such as working, being sedentary etc)
Please find an article in the news related specifically to the use of energy (working, exercise, being sedentary, etc.) and summarize it in your own words for the class! Include the name of the article and the source it came from.
i know i post the same before but because it is shown for everybody one of my classmate steal it and post it before i do.. i want the answer hidden please. and dont forget the source of the article please

A 10-4 is performed on a culture of bacteria in order to perform viable plate counts. From the dilution, *0.1 mL* of solution is plated on solid media, and 37 colony forming units grow on the plate.
How many bacteria are in a single mL of the original culture? Express your answer to two decimal places using exponential notation. In exponential notation 540 would be written as 5.E2. Please use an upper-case letter E.

B. The competitive exclusion principle assumes that competitors have different resource requirements and that environmental conditions remain constant.
C. The competitive exclusion principle assumes that the competitors have the exact same resource requirements and that environmental conditions remain constant.
D. The competitive exclusion principle assumes that the competitors have resource partitioning and that environmental conditions remain constant.
E. The competitive exclusion principle makes no assumptions about the competitors.
2. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Germination rates vary among species, but these differences do not translate into differences in competitive ability.
B. Temperature, humidity, and salinity have little effect on competition.
C. Plants with high growth rates under high light conditions tend to be overgrown quickly in newly opened habitat patches.
D. The outcome of competition can be influenced by factors other than limited resources.
