Homework Answers
1) Explain why fertilization is blocked when a sea urchin egg is
treated with a drug that allows calcium to enter the egg
Answer:
The drug that that allows calcium to enter the egg, prevents
fertilization because it prevents sperm from fertilization with the
egg.
Increase in calcium ion concentration in the egg cytoplasm leads to
the formation of the fertilization envelope. Therefore, prevent
sperm and egg fertilization.
2) Explain why adding a molecule that binds to bindin-like protein
on the human sperm head would be an effective contraception
Answer:
By adding a molecule that binds to bindin-like protein on the human
sperm head would be an effective contraception because binding of
molecule to sperm heads blocks sperm-egg fusion.
Therefore, fertilization will not occur and thus leads to effective
contraception.

A sea urchin egg is treated with an inhibitor that prevents the rise in intracellular Ca2+ right before fertilization. Which of the following events would be blocked by addition of this inhibitor? Choose one or more: A. formation of vesicles under the plasma membrane B. exocytosis of hydrolytic enzymes C. fertilization envelope rising from the cell surface D. entry of multiple sperm into the cell

how would evolution affect this table
5. Feral pigeons (Columba livia domestica) have long been considered the most frustrating pest bird. Flocks of these pigeons pose a threat to crops, livestock, and human health as their large numbers can decimate crops and act as disease vectors for pathogens that affect both livestock and humans. However, in places like New York's Washington Square Park, pigeons are well-loved and well-fed members of the community. Controlling these pigeon populations has been a challenge...

The gene machine program shows you what happens when lactose is present in E. coli, and how the lac operon is under negative control. However, the lac operon is also under positive control from a protein called CRP, eAMP Receptor Protein. The absence of the lac repressor is essential but not sufficient for effective transcription of the lac operon. RNA polymerase also depends on the presence of CRP. Like the lac repressor, which can bind to the DNA and lactose....

1. When you look at a pine or maple tree, the plant you see is a _____. 2. The Brazil nut tree, Bertholletia excels (n = 17), is native to tropical rain forests of South America. It is a hardwood tree that can grow to over 50 meters tall, is a source of high-quality lumber, and is a favorite nesting site for harpy eagles. As the rainy season ends, tough-walled fruits, each containing 8-25 seeds (Brazil nuts), fall to the...

Case study Company Case Campbell Soup Company: Watching What You Eat You might think that a well-known, veteran consumer products company like the Campbell Soup Company has it made. After all, when people think of soup, they think of Campbell’s. In the $5 billion U.S. soup market, Campbell dominates with a 44 percent share. Selling products under such an iconic brand name should be a snap. But if you ask Denise Morrison, CEO of Campbell, she’ll tell you a different...
