Answer:
Please find the explanation below
Explanation:
Deoxyribosenucleic acid, commonly called DNA is the stored form of genetic material in living cells. It contains the information needed by an organism to survive. A segment of the DNA that encodes the necessary information needed to produce a particular protein that determines a trait is called GENE.
The DNA consists of long polynucleotide chains, hence, due to Its length, it cannot git into the cell. The cell then devises a means by wrapping the long strands of DNA around certain proteins called HISTONES. This initially forms a NUCLEOSOME structure, then continuous wrapping around histones and condensation forms the visible CHROMOSOME structure.
Now, the CHROMOSOME contains the DNA molecule, which contains protein-coding segments called GENES. The information contained on the gene is used to produce a protein that is responsible for a particular TRAIT in the organism.
Answer:
Open-cast mining
Explanation:
The aftermath of open cast mining are pits (called quarries) on the surface of the earth where the surface soil has been removed/ displaced to access the mineral deposits that are just close or at the surface of the earth. This type of mining results in environmental degradation because they disturb the biodiversity of the ecosystem in which the mining is taking place. Rehabilitation of the area is required after the mining has been exhausted to restore the initial environment.
The correct answer is optionD 134/200.
The frequency of the dominant allele can be calculated by the summation of the frequency of the homozygous individual frequency that has dominant allele and half of the heterozygous individuals, as half of the heterozygotes have dominant allele.
The frequency is no of individual of desired trait divided by total number of individual.
The calculation is shown below:
Answer:
B. 18
Explanation:
An atom, which is the smallest indivisible particle of matter, further contains certain particles called SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLES namely: proton, neutron and electron. In a neutral/uncharged atom, the number of proton is equal to the number of electrons. The number of protons in an atom represent its ATOMIC NUMBER.
However, the sum of the proton number and neutron number gives the MASS NUMBER i.e. mass no. = proton no. + electron no.
Hence, according to this question which states that an atom has an atomic number of 17 and a mass number of 35. The neutron no. can be calculated as follows:
Neutron no. = mass no. - proton no.
Neutron no. = 35 - 17
Neutron no. = 18
