Based on Figure 2, identify the percent of seeds from wild-type plants that germinated 3.5 days after their initial exposure to 2 uM hormone X. Based on the
data in Figure 2, describe the effect of the mutant allele of gene W on the length of
time required for 20% of the seeds to germinate at each of the three concentrations
of hormone X. Based on Figure 1, calculate the percent decrease in average length
of shoots from mutant plants compared with shoots from wild-type plants when
each was exposed to 2 uM hormone X.

There are six elements that make up most of the human body. which of the following is not one of these six elements?

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i. e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).

One of the reasons that stars are so large is because
