White blood cells called b cells produce proteins that can be used for the treatment of certain illnesses. however, these b cells do not live for very long on their own. to keep the b cells growing for a long time in laboratories, scientists fuse the b cells with cancer cells (fused b-cancer cells) that do grow for a very long time. the particular cancer cells used for the fusion are treated with chemicals that make them unable to produce the nitrogenous bases adenine and guanine, but the b cells with which they are fused do produce these nitrogenous buses. the scientists grow the large fused b-cancer cells in a growth medium that contains necessary nutrients for the cells and includes a source of carbon (a) describe the role of carbon in biological systems. (b) the membranes of both b cells and the cancer cells are largely composed of phospholipids. explain how, when the membranes are fused, the polar parts of the phospholipids from one cell will interact with the phospholipids from the other cell and how the nonpolar parts of the phospholipids from one cell will interact with the phospholipids from the other cell. (c) make a claim about the most immediate effect on the fused b-cancer cells if the fused cells are transferred to a growth medium that lacks a source of nitrogen. (d) provide reasoning with evidence based on the composition of biological macromolecules to support your claim

Suppose a scientist measures the amount of dna per cell of a particular diploid species at various stages of meiosis. she finds that the meiotic cells contain 3.7 pg , 7.3 pg , or 14.6 pg of dna. match each stage of the cell cycle to the corresponding amount of dna contained within a cell at that stage.

Hydrilla (hydrilla verticillata) is an invasive aquatic plant and one of the most serious aquatic pests in florida. hydrilla has already been introduced to hundreds of bodies of water throughout florida, hydrilla is difficult to control because it grows rapidly and survives in many different water depths and conditions. hydrilla • describe how hydrilla affects native plant and animal species. include both a biotic and an abiotic limiting factor. • suggest one biotic and one abiotic recommendation that could slow the spread of hydrilla
