What are all the flat bones

12) several teeth were found in an area of flat land covered with trees and plants. the teeth were examined by a paleontologist, and it was determined that the teeth came from a shark. they found many other shark teeth in this area. however, the people who discovered the teeth were puzzled, because there was no source of water near where the fossils were found. what is the paleontologist's best explanation for why the teeth were found in this area? a) sharks used to live on flat land. b) this area was once covered with salt water. c) this area was once covered with freshwater. d) someone buried the shark teeth deep in the ground.

Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as β-lactamase), an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. the mass of this enzyme in staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kd. the amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10-ml solution containing 10-9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. penicillin(μm) amount hydrolyzed(nmol) 1 0.11 3 0.25 5 0.34 10 0.45 30 0.58 50 0.61 (a) plot v0 versus [s] and 1/v0 versus 1/[s] for these data. does penicillinase appear to obey michaelis-menten kinetics? if so, what is the value of km? (b) what is the value of vmax? (c) what is the turnover number of penicillinase under these experimental conditions? assume one active site per enzyme molecule.

Which of the following situations are occurring when a red flower (rr) and a white flower (ww) produce a pink flower? a. multiple alleles b. incomplete dominance c. codominance
