Species that arrive first in the newly created environment or available ecosystem are called PIONEER SPECIES
Traits heritable only if the similarity arises from shared genotypes
Answer:
Science is the study of the natural world by collecting data through a systematic process called the scientific method. And technology is where we apply science to create devices that can solve problems and do tasks. Technology is literally the application of science.
Surface tension is the property of water which allows for some lightweight insects to walk on top of a pond and not fall in. The molecules of water are held together by cohesive forces. The molecules of water present below the surface experience this cohesive force from all the directions, whereas the water molecules present on the surface experience a downward pull, as the force is not balanced. This leads to the concaving of the water surface inside a small tube.

Explanation:
Firstly, a repressed gene is a gene whose expression has been inhibited or repressed. The lac operon in E.coli bacteria is a regulatory unit containing structural genes, a single promoter and operator regions. The promoter is the region where the transcription enzyme (RNA polymerase) binds to in order to transcribe the genes in the lac operon. The structural genes in the lac operon can only be expressed in the presence of lactose sugar.
However, in the absence of lactose, LAC REPRESSOR, which is a transcription factor (protein), prevents the binding of RNA polymerase to the PROMOTER region by binding to the OPERATOR region of the lac operon. This inhibits the expression of the lactose genes in the operon.
Note that, the structural genes in the lac operon (lacZ, lacY, lacA) code for proteins that help break down lactose sugar for energy in the E.coli bacteria. Therefore, a bacteria cell with a repressed lac operon will be unable to degrade lactose sugar.
