Study the illustration below of the plate tectonics affecting the continent of Africa. Divergent plates are causing the East African Rift Zone to spread. This area is a deep valley surrounded by mountains, similar to a mid-ocean ridge. What do you predict will eventually happen at the East African Rift Zone? African plate tectonics showing the Eurasian Plate, Arabian Plate, Indian Plate and African Plate (Nubian) and (Somalian). A rift zone is shown extending from the edge of the Arabian Plate through the Indian Plate and extending into the African Plate (Somalian).

Lake Victoria will shrink and disappear as all of the plates converge.

The African plate will grow larger as all of the plates converge.

Water from the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean will flow into the rift and flood the area.

The Indian Ocean will shrink and disappear as the Rift Zone gets larger.

In german cockroaches, curved wing (cv) is recessive to normal wing (cv+). bill, who is raising cockroaches in his dorm room, finds that the frequency of the gene for curved wings in his cockroach population is 0.6. in his friend joe’s apartment, the frequency of the gene for curved wings is 0.2. one day joe visits bill in his dorm room, and several cockroaches jump out of joe’s hair and join the population in bill’s room. bill estimates that, now, 10% of the cockroaches in his dorm room are individual roaches that jumped out of joe’s hair. what is the new frequency of curved wings among cockroaches in bill’s room? 0.69 0.4 0.5 0.31 0.20

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

Which statements best describe the differences or similarities between a comparative investigation and an experimental investigation? check all that apply. experimental investigations are best for showing cause-and-effect relationships, while comparative investigations do not necessarily show this type of relationship. comparative investigations are often impractical and unrealistic, while experimental investigations are the most practical and realistic kinds of investigations. comparative investigations allow for the use of a wide range of variables but do not have a control group, while experimental investigations involve variables that can be controlled. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations are designed to answer scientific questions. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations focus on making observations rather than collecting new data.
