The Douglas fir adapted to enable its survival in the taiga biome due to waxy needles.

<h3>What is Douglas fir?</h3>

Douglas fir may be defined as any type of a genus of tall evergreen timber trees of the pine family having stout bark, pitchy timber, and drooping cones with expanding branching.

Douglas-fir has elongate, narrow, and waxy needle-shaped leaves. The presence of waxy leaves precludes the thrashing of water through the process of transpiration and also controls freezing and leaves drying out.

The complete question is as follows:

How has the Douglas-fir adapted to enable its survival in the taiga biome?

  • low growing
  • perennial
  • waxy needles
  • survive on limited nutrients

Therefore, the correct option is C, i.e. waxy needles.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Xeroderma pigmentosum arises as a result of the cell being unable to correct lesions induced by UV. This can be as a result of mutations in the enzymes which include XP A-E needed for correction of the lesions. Failure to correct these lesions leads to their accumulation and then damage to the cell.

Why do identical twins become increasingly different over time?
nika2105 [10]

Explanation:

Identical twins may have less in common than they think. A study now shows that the expression of their genes gets more and more different with age.

The findings could help to explain why one twin may develop a genetically influenced disease, such as diabetes, while the other remains perfectly healthy.

Identical twins have identical genes, because they are born of an embryo that splits at a very early stage in development. Such twins are often indistinguishable in outward appearance. But over the course of time they may experience radically dissimilar health.

Most scientists have assumed that environmental and lifestyle differences cause such divergence. These things trigger chemical reactions that affect our DNA and the proteins entwined with our DNA, called histones. One such reaction, known as methylation, influences the expression of genes and so can have an impact on health.
