How is the tissue of the kidneys structurally modified to aid in filtration? It has tubules and is porous B. What is important functionally about transitional epithelium? It allows for stretching. Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". You can find transitional epithelium in the bladder and in the first expansion of the ureters as they leave the kidneys (called a calyx). C. What is the function

Plant Genetics JANICE NALBONE Abstract This experiment is being done to show Mendel’s rule of dominance that says certain alleles are dominant and others are recessive. To show this‚ we are using tobacco seeds‚ a monohybrid cross comparing only one trait color. We are also showing Mendel’s law of segregation with a Dihybrid cross comparing two traits of color and texture. Introduction

Intriguingly‚ the spelling change that causes blue eyes is not in the pigment gene itself‚ but in a nearby snippet of DNA scripture that controls the gene’s expression. This lends support to an idea that is rushing through genetics and evolutionary biology. Evolution works not just by changing genes‚ but by modifying the way those genes are switched on and off. According to Sean Carroll of the University of Wisconsin at Madison‚ "The primary fuel for the evolution of anatomy turns out not to be gene

a) Discuss current research into the evolutionary relationships between extinct species‚ including megafauna and extant Australian species. Megafauna simply means large animals‚ in which most have become extinct within the last 20 000 to 50 000 years. The extinction of megafauna was‚ debatably‚ due to climate change and human expansion. Although‚ Africa still retains some megafauna‚ such as the elephant or the rhinoceros. Australia has managed to keep many examples of relict species‚ some from

Darwin and Wallace Island Finch Evolution Lab Experiment BIO/101 Darwin and Wallace Island Finch Evolution Lab Experiment Evolution and Natural Selection have been a recurring focus of biology throughout the years. This Particular experiment is based on Charles Darwin’s observations of finches made in the Galapagos Islands. He noted that different neighboring islands in the Galapagos had distinctly different types of finches. He theorized that this was caused by natural

Su material nuclear se encuentra flotando en el citoplasma. Las bacterias se clasifican como procariontas. Las celulas eucariontas son las mas avanzadas y contienen organelos rodeados por membranas. Su material nuclear esta rodeado por una membrane nuclear. Las celulas de las plantas‚ los hongos y los animals son eucarionticas. Las celulas de las plantas

Our assignment is about how chromosomes separate and how cell division works through microtubules and histones. DNA in the nucleus is loose and not well defined into chromosomes because it is usually tightly coiled‚ but in the interphase nucleus the chromatin exists in two forms: loosely coiled form called euchromatin and tightly coiled formed called heterochromatin. These two types become more coiled to form the chromosome at the time of cell division. DNA is a bit loosely coiled in the euchromatin
