<h2>Meselson and Stahl conducted an experiment to determine the correct proposed methods of DNA replication was semi-conservative. the three proposed models for DNA replication are semi-conservative, conservative, and dispersive.</h2>

Explanation:

In Semi-conservative replication model, the two strands of DNA uncoil from each other. It perform with the original strand and a new strand.

In Conservative replication model, DNA replication didn't open at all, but the parent strands remains undamaged by creating a new and separate  molecule that consists of two new strands.

In Dispersive replication model, DNA replication results in two DNA molecules that consists of both parental and daughter DNA.

He demonstrated that semi-conservative DNA replication is an universal mechanism allocated by all organisms on Earth.

astra-53 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Example of a food-web:

(1) Algae --> (2) Protozoas --> (3) Krill --> (4) Cephallopods --> (5) Medium sized dolphin --> (6) Large Dolphin

The trophic web is the process of energy transference through a series of organisms, in which every organism feeds on the preceding one and becomes food for the next one.

1) The first link is an autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter. In this example, the autotroph organisms are algae, that make use of sunlight and inorganic matter.

The next links are the consumers:

2) Herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. In this example, herbivore organisms are protozoan.

3) Krills are the secondary consumers and feed on protozoans.

4) Some species of cephalopods feed on krill, among other species.

5) Specialized Cetaceans such as the Risso´s dolphin, feed especially on cephalopods, as they lack upper teeth and they only have a few teeth in their jaws.

6) The killer whale is a big sized-dolphin and a very important predator. It feeds on many animals, and one of them is the Risso´s dolphin.
