The cladophora is introduced in aquariums via contaminated plants or equipment, therefore to prevent it's formation it is necessary to clean everything before intoruducing it to the aquearium.

Ratling [72]
She will give the DNA fingerprinting report to the jury which will have samples of suspect and its profile matching to the evidence found at the scene of crime.


In DNA fingerprinting hair, blood, semen, or other biological samples are required for the comparison of suspect and evidence. It depends on the unique polymorphism in their DNA.
The fragments of DNA are made to run on the electrophoresis gel and the similar bands observed will confirm the matching.
The DNA fingerprinting will provide very exact evidence if the DNA samples matched.

otez555 [7]
<h2>B) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

Natural selection is a selection pressure which operates in a population and allow the best fitted genotype to survive in changing environmental conditions and eliminate the other genotype which are not fit

In artificial selection, breeders select superior breed for the breeding purpose so that this type of selection favors the superior genotype and eliminates inferior genotype, thus leading to genetic drift

Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection in which intermediate genotype is favored but extreme genotypes (inferior and superior) are eliminated

In the given example of pigmentation in pigeons, breeding is selectively done with intermediate pigmentation hence intermediate genotypes will be favored

Why do we want to turn genes off or on?
Dmitrij [34]

The process of turning off and on of genes is known as gene regulation.

Explanation:

When the gene is turned on, it instructs the cells to construct a particular protein. The proteins are the molecules that build your body with collagen, tendons, and bones or keratin in your hair.

The gene regulatory proteins allow the individual genes of an organism to be turned on or off . in different cell types there are different selections of gene regulatory proteins. The patterns of the gene expression gives each cell its unique characteristics.

Each cell produces or turns on only a fraction of its genes. the remaining genes are repressed or turned off. this process is known as gene regulation. The signals from the environment or from other cells activate proteins called transcription factors.
