Answer:
White shark bites, parasites, food availability, habitat degradation are among some of the contributing factors threatening the recovery of the species. The greatest threat to a sea otter is the oil spills.
Hope this helps!
Extra - Fun fact - Sea otters play a vital role in the health and stability of the nearshore marine ecosystem as a keystone species.
Answer:
The correct answer is - autosomal codominant inheritance (due to multiple alleles).
Explanation:
Autosomal codominant inheritance or codominance is a pattern of inheritance where the alleles present of an autosomal gene express their character in the phenotype. In other words, in this type of pattern, no allele would be masked by other alleles and both will be expressed in the phenotype.
The human ABO blood group is an example of this pattern as there are three alleles A, B, and O. In the heterozygous case of AB blood group both A, and B alleles expressed together however, O is masked by both alleles A, and O.
Answer:
Direct observation of evolutionary change: creation of drug-resistant bacteria.
Fossil record: discovery of transitional forms of animals, discovery of shells of extinct organisms
Homology: similarities in mammalian forelimbs, identical genetic code in fireflies and tobacco plants, vestigial pelvis in right whales
Biogeography: resemblance of endangered island species to neighboring mainland species,
Answer: Center
Explanation: The space in the center of the eyeball is filled with a clear jelly-like material called the vitreous humor. This material allows light to pass through to the retina. It also helps the eye keep its round shape.
Answer:
d. disrupt the function of protein kinases involved in cell cycle regulation.
Explanation:
Protein kinases which are useful in cell cycles have major roles in the formation of tumors. So many of these protein kinases go through mutations. Cell cycles would be unable to be stoped and tumor would keep increasing.
A lot of receptors are G protein coupled. So it is going to be really helpful to alter and make G protein receptors to be inactive. Most if these kinases go through means of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. Targeting these would cause disruption in signal transduction in cells with cancer
