Population density is the aspect of population ecology of the black-tailed prairie dog does this statement describe.
Explanation:
Population density is the number of organisms are there in per unit area. It is used to measure geographical area occupied by organisms and its statistics.
In population ecology the structure, dynamics and contribution of population of species is studied. The idea of species distribution is studied in it.
The population density determines the number of species or members of particular population are present is a particular area.
An area of low density population will have more resources and more area per organism and less competition for resources and vice versa for high density population.
Prairie dogs have 12 adults per hectare of area this tells the population density of the rodents.
Answer:
Store and transfer genetic information
Explanation:
Answer:
introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA
Explanation:
A nonsense mutation is a mutation in which an amino acid–specifying codon is changed into a termination codon or stop codon. A stop codon is a codon that does not code for any amino acid and serves to terminate the process of protein synthesis as ribosomes encounter it on the mRNA.
There are three stop codons: UAA, UAG, UGA. A nonsense mutation introduces a stop codon in place of an amino acid encoding codon. It results in the formation of truncated protein which is shorter than the normal protein. Truncated proteins are mostly nonfunctional.
