If mutation destroys the function of the Cas9 gene then the bacteria will not be able to target a specific bacteriophage for destruction upon infection for the second time.

<h3>What is the Cas9 gene?</h3>
  • Cas9 is a 160 kilodalton protein that plays a vital role in the immunological defense of certain bacteria against DNA viruses and plasmids and is heavily utilized in genetic engineering applications.
  • Its main function is to cut DNA and thereby alter a cell's genome.
  • Although Cas9 is an endonuclease and is evolved as a mechanism of immunity against viruses, they are not considered restriction enzymes.

Rabbits are introduced into a grassland area. Which action of the rabbits would harm the buffalo that live in the grassland?
ollegr [7]
The most likely answer choice should and would be B, given that rabbits are herbivores (meaning that they only eat vegetation and plants, including grass). Buffalo's food source(s) and diet consists of grass as well. If enough rabbits are introduced into a grassland area, they will furthermore consume more grass, in turn limiting the food source of the buffalo. 

''Attacking'' prey doesn't necessarily make sense, given that buffalos do not 'prey' on any animal and rabbits themselves are prey.

A to a lesser extent can make sense, although I doubtable.  B's most likely the answer.

The image below shows a convergent plate boundary.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

the answer is volcanoes

Explanation:

The oceanic crust collides with the continental crust to form a convergent boundary. At the convergent boundary, the denser oceanic crust sinks under the lighter continental crust. The rocks of the oceanic crust reach very high temperatures of about 12,000°C, which is enough to melt the rocks. These molten rocks travel upward through cracks and crevices in the continental crust. They then erupt on the surface as volcanoes. Therefore, the feature expected to form at point X as the result of converging plates would be volcanoes.
