If the food is limited to the squirrels then that could impact how well they reproduce which could impact their numbers which therefore could impact the food source for the foxes which eat them. Fewer squirrels means the foxes will slow down on their reproductive numbers as well...they are all linked!
Given the age of the meteorite is 4.5 billion years old with 78 atoms of lead-206 the answer should be B. 156. The half-life of uranium-238 in order to decay into lead-206 is 4.46 billion years, which means that the original number of atoms is 156.
The process of passing genetic material from one generation to the next depends completely on how cells grow and divide. To reproduce, a simple organism such as bacteria or yeast simply copies its DNA (through a process called replication) and splits in two. But organisms that reproduce sexually go through a complicated dance that includes mixing and matching strands of DNA (a process called recombination) and then reducing the amount of DNA in special sex cells to arrive at completely new genetic combinations for their offspring.
There are two basic kinds of organisms — ones with a nucleus and those without a nucleus (a compartment filled with DNA surrounded by a membrane called a nuclear envelope):
<span>Prokaryotes: Organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and therefore have DNA floating loosely in the liquid center of the cell. Prokaryotes divide, and thus reproduce, by simple mitosis.</span><span>Eukaryotes: Organisms that have a well-defined nucleus to house and protect the DNA. Eukaryotes divide by meiosis for sexual reproduction.</span>
Answer: 25 of the chicks will be black
Explanation: Since the chickens are intermediate in colour, that is they are not black, they are heterozygous. Let B represent the allele for black colour and B represent the allele for blue colour, therefore the genotype of a chicken with an intermediate colour is Bb. A cross between two Bb chicken will produce 1 BB, 2 Bb and 1 bb chicks. 1 BB will manifest outwardly as black, 2Bb will manifest outwardly as intermediate colored while 1 bb will manifest outwardly as blue colored chicks.
Since one out of four chicks are black colored, if the two chicken produced 100 chicks, the number of chicks that will be black is 1/4 x 100 = 25. Therefore, 25 chicks out of 100 will be black.

Answer:
The functions of nucleic acids have to do with the storage and expression of genetic information. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encodes the information the cell needs to make proteins.
