Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Environmental factors determine all genetic traits. Why? So the organism that is gaining the trait has a better chance of survival or to be more specific a better chance at adapting to their environment. Let me give you an example, the long necks on a giraffe. The diet of a giraffe consist of mostly acacia leaves which are leaves that are on the top of a tree. This environmental factor is why giraffes have long neck so they can get to the leaves of the tree. If they did not have long necks giraffes probably would´nt survive

Now let me give you an example that is related to evolution

Evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations

An example of this happening can be shown in mosquitoes

People were using DDT (which is an insecticide used to kill bugs) on mosquitoes to harm them. Many of the mosquitoes had died but the remaining were able to produce offspring that had mutations. These mutations caused the mosquitoes to be resistant to the insecticide. This shows another example of environmental factors having an influence on genetic traits. The DDT spray was the environmental factor and the mosquito being able to produce offspring that were resistant the the insecticide is the outcome from the influence.

A chromosome is a cellular DNA molecule that typically encodes thousands of genes. In order for the information encoded within a specific gene to be transcribed to make RNA, RNA polymerase begins to transcribe the DNA, using one DNA strand as a template to make a complementary RNA molecule that is later used for protein synthesis during translation. A scientist is studying two mutant bacterial strains that do not produce a functional form of amylase, an enzyme that the organisms use to break down starch polymers. The scientist is using a third bacterial strain capable of normal amylase production (called the wild type) for comparison. Upon sequence analysis of the DNA region around and including the amylase gene in all three bacterial strains, the scientist locates the mutations as shown. Which statement BEST explains how these mutations affect gene expression and amylase enzyme functionality in the mutant bacterial strains?

A. Only mutant #1 transcribes the amylase gene and translate the resulting mRNA, but the resulting enzyme is non-functional

B. Only mutant #2 transcribes the amylase gene and translates the resulting mRNA, but resulting enzyme is non functional

C. Neither mutant #1 nor mutant #2 transcribes the amylase gene nor complete translation, so neither make functional enzymes

D. Both mutant #1 and mutant #2 transcribe the amylase gene and translate the resulting mRNA, but both resulting enzymes are non- functional.

Which term refers to one species eating another, such as the red-tailed hawk
eating the prairie dogs?
A. Prey evasion
B. Interspecific competition
C. Predation
D. Herbivory

Answers

Answer:

Predation

Explanation:

Predation is the interaction where one organism, the predator (red-tailed hawk), kills and eats another organism, its prey (praire dog).

It is not the other three because:

Prey evasion is when the prey attempts to avoid its predator; however, in this case, the prairie dog is being eaten by the red-tailed hawk.

Interspecific competition is when individuals of different species compete for the same resources in an ecosystem.

Herbivory is the consumption of plant material by animals, and herbivores are animals adapted to eat plants. There are no plants being involved in this scenario.

B. Autotrophs synthesize ATP and other nutrients for heterotrophs, which produce oxygen for autotrophs.

C. Autotrophs fix carbon and produce oxygen for heterotrophs, which produce carbon dioxide for autotrophs.

D. Autotrophs transform chemical energy into radiant energy for heterotrophs, which fix carbon for autotrophs.

Answers

Answer: The answer is A,

Explanation:

Answer:

C. Autotrophs fix carbon and produce oxygen for heterotrophs, which produce carbon dioxide for autotrophs.

Explanation:

Autotrophs are organisms that conduct photosynthesis. One of the products of photosynthesis is oxygen, which is released into the air. Heterotrophs then take in this oxygen and give out carbon, which then the plants take in and use. This cycle goes endlessly on and on.

Can somebody please do 10 through 13 for me please:)

Answers

Answer:

10. Human Activity

Human activities emit 60 or more times the amount of carbon dioxide released by volcanoes each year.

11. Cooling Effect

When volcanoes erupt, they emit a mixture of gases and particles into the air. Some of them, such as ash and sulphur dioxide, have a cooling effect, because they reflect sunlight away from the earth. Others, such as CO2, cause warming by adding to the the greenhouse effect.

12.  

The gases and dust particles thrown into the atmosphere during volcanic eruptions have influences on climate. Most of the particles spewed from volcanoes cool the planet by shading incoming solar radiation. The cooling effect can last for months to years depending on the characteristics of the eruption.

13.

Volcanoes can impact climate change. During major explosive eruptions huge amounts of volcanic gas, aerosol droplets, and ash are injected into the stratosphere. ... But volcanic gases like sulfur dioxide can cause global cooling, while volcanic carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, has the potential to promote global warming.

Suppose you have the same mass of water and air. If you want to raise the temperature of water and air from 20°C to 30°C, which substance will require more energy, Q, to do so?

Answers

Water need more energy because the heat capacity c of the water is the greatest =4186

Answer:

Water has a higher specific heat than air. So, it will require more energy to raise the temperature of water from 20°C to 30°C compared to what is needed to raise the temperature of the same mass of air.

Why is it advantageous for plants to respond to environmental stresses by going dormant and dropping leaves?

Answers

When they lose their leaves they need much less resources to survive (because they don’t need nutrients to support the leaves). For example trees lose their leaves in the winter because the ground freezes up and it’s harder to suck up nutrients.

Answers

Well, you can’t clone a baby but, not exactly should you be allowed to do it. Could you clone an alive baby? Yes. There's two specific skills that infertility doctors have that are necessary for cloning. One is micro-manipulation of embryos. In this case, to take a human egg, to remove the nucleus, and then to replace that nucleus with a nucleus from a somatic cell, a body cell of the person who is going to be cloned.

if a couple clone a baby ,  There's two specific skills are taken by infertility doctors have that are necessary for cloning. One is micro-manipulation of embryos.

what is cloning ?

cloning can be defined as the process of producing genetically and phenotypically same organism or cells from a single organism/cell,

the process can be occurred  either naturally or artificially. The genotypically and phenotypically similar copies of the original organism are called clones.

Artificial cloning's can be up different types such as Reproductive cloning

Gene cloning, Therapeutic cloning

Reproductive cloning produce genetically identical organisms from a particular organism whereas gene cloning involves producing exact copies of a gene or segments of DNA.

Therapeutic cloning involves the production of embryonic stem cells and  create tissues that would replace similar but damaged or worn-out tissues in living organisms.
