Answer:
The CFTR gene provides instructions for making a protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. This protein functions as a channel across the membrane of cells that produce mucus, sweat, saliva, tears, and digestive enzymes.

What are some ways that living things can be classified? What characteristics should we look at when putting living things into groups?
The classification of living things includes 7 levels: kingdom, phylum, classes, order, families, genus, and species. Characteristics such as appearance, reproduction, mobility, and functionality are just a few ways in which living organisms are grouped together. These specialized groups are collectively called the classification of living things.
Hope this helps :)

How is the impact of seasonal flooding different from damming a river?(1 point)
-Seasonal flooding is not considered an ecological disturbance like damming.
-Seasonal flooding does not impact biodiversity for as long term as damming.
-Seasonal flooding helps balance biodiversity, but damming does not.
-Seasonal flooding increases biodiversity, but damming does not.
Would a long-term increase in the average temperature of a region be considered a significant disturbance in the ecosystem?(1 point)
-No, because it would not create large-scale changes in the environment.
-Yes, because any slight change in temperature is considered a disruption.

Please help and thank you.
Answer:
D / D / D / B / C
Explanation:
I just took the quick check myself, got all of them right :)
1 ) Top predators do not increase the number of prey, neither do they create imbalance or increase the food for other predator species. This is common knowledge, so ruling those out you are left with D. As they do in fact maintain the rest of the food chains populations.
2) A top predator in the ocean is a shark. Of course some might mistake a small whale to be a top predator, but sharks are actually known to hunt whales- the small ones anyway. A sea lion fish or a bird wouldn't exactly be a candidate for the top of the food chain either.
3) During seasonal flooding, to an area such as a river, water gets added to the existing pool, and many biotics and abiotics take this to their advantage. As a result- biodiversity actually increases during these times, but once season flooding is over it goes back to being the same.
4) The impact difference of seasonal flooding from damming a river is actually quite big. Seasonal flooding is.. well.. seasonal.. while damming for the most part is permanent, or will be there for much longer time span than season flooding is. Seasonal flooding increases biodiversity, but damming does not. This is becuase of the long term increase of water, the environment has to readapt, as plants that were once there drowned, and the known species most likely ran off to find better environment. Here it takes a while but eventually new abiotic and biotic species adapt and reclaim the dammed area of the environment.
5) Yes, a long term increase in the average temperature would disturb the ecosystem. Even if it's for a little bit, it's still something the environment wouldn't be used to, meaning the plants and animals there would have to learn to adapt for the time being- even if its temporary.
1: It maintains other populations
2: A shark
3: The biodiversity of the area increases
4: Seasonal flooding does not impact biodiversity for as long term as damming.
5: Yes, because such a change could have a large-scale impact on wildlife.
I need an answer quickly please
Answer:
b
Explanation:
Why would organisms evolve to HAVE vestigial body parts
Explanation:
Structures that have lost their use through evolution are called vestigial structures. They provide evidence for evolution because they suggest that an organism changed from using the structure to not using the structure, or using it for a different purpose..

How does the composition of the cell membrane help regulate the movement of substances into and out of the cell?
Answer:The primary function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells.

All individuals of one species living in an area is called?
Answer:
A population comprises individuals of the same species. A community however is comprised of different populations of several species coexisting in the same area. In short, a population only refers to one species, but a community refers to all living species within a certain area.

Since the beginning of the Solar system, all planets orbit or revolve around the barycenter of the solar system in a counterclockwise direction. true or false?
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Barycenter is the center of mass of an object. Since the beginning all planets and sun have been revolving around their center of mass. This center of mass evidently is the center of the solar system . The satellite, planet and sun has been revolving and rotating in the counterclockwise around the barycenter as well as their axis

organisms are classified as either prokaryotes and eukaryotes.which of the following do the cells of all prokaryotes and eukaryotes contain?
Answer:
Prokaryotes contains a single chromosome and DNA whereas eukaryotes contain true nucleus and organelles.
Explanation:
The cells of all prokaryotes contains a single chromosome and a double-stranded DNA while on the other hand, nucleus and other organelles are absent whereas eukaryotes contain true nucleus and organelles such as golgi bodies, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, ribosomes, vacuole and mitochondria. True nucleus means the membrane is present around the nucleus.

Explanation:
Earth's mantle is made of liquid molten material. The inner part of the mantle is hotter than the outer part. Therefore, currents carry molten material up to Earth's surface. Then, they cool off so much that they sink back down inot the warmer area. What type of heat transfer is this? [ Select ]
Answer:
Convection currents are what cause the warmer molten material to rise up, and when it cools, to sink back down.

Organisms are divided into different kingdoms based on differences in their characteristics. Two major characteristics that scientists
use to determine which kingdom an organism belongs to are
ability to make food and ability to swim.
OA
OB ability to swim and number of cells.
OC.
ability to fly and size of organism.
OD
ability to make food and number of cells.
Answer:
A. ability to make food and ability to swim
Explanation:
Living organisms have been grouped into an hierarchical system of classification that begins with the kingdom, which is the most inclusive taxon. Organisms were placed into kingdoms based on two major criteria namely; their nutrition and mobility.
Their nutrition depends on their ability to make food by themselves (autotrophic) or not (heterotrophic) while their mobility depends on their possession of structures for locomotion.
What is biosequestration?

Explanation:
Describe the fossils found in the top layers of the Grand Canyon.
Answer:
Sedimentary fossils/rocks
Explanation:
The sedimentary rocks exposed throughout the canyon are rich with marine fossils such as crinoids, brachiopods, and sponges with several layers containing terrestrial fossils such as leaf and dragonfly wing impressions, and footprints of scorpions, centipedes, and reptiles. Sedimentary rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks or pieces of once-living organisms. They form from deposits that accumulate on the Earth's surface. Sedimentary rocks often have distinctive layering or bedding.
