DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. To carry out these functions, DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins, which are the complex molecules that do most of the work in our bodies.
<span>heterozygous / homozygous refers to whether both alleles for a gene are the same. The organism is homozygous if both alleles are the same - that is, either both are dominant or both are recessive. The organism is heterozygous if the alleles are different - that is, if one allele is dominant and the other allele is recessive..
the answer to the questions is A. </span><span>One parent was heterozygous for eye color and the other was homozygous with red eyes.</span>
The CORRECT answer for this is: number reduction of chromosomes:)
Answer: 1. Sea urchins and sea otters
2. They are prey for carnivores.
3. Sea otters, star fish
Explanation:
Sea urchins and sea otters are carnivores as they eat on the flesh of starfish and sea urchins respectively.
Starfish feed on the kelp forests which are the producers in the food chain and the starfish is the primary consumer and prey for sea urchins. So, starfish and kelp forests are the prey in the marine ecosystem.
Keystone species is the one which controls the population of other inferior species in an ecosystem. Here, sea otters consume sea urchins so the population of sea urchins remained in control Starfish controls the population of kelp forest.
