I'm no expert but probably not because eventually they'll get eaten as nature's way of stopping a population get too big (the food chain)
Answer:
d. Earthworms
Explanation:
Think about it: have you ever actually seen a prion, virus, or bacterium? No, because they can't be seen with the naked eye. Microorganism means that it's too small (hence the prefix micro-) to see.
- Prions are little misfolded proteins. Viruses are nonliving things made up of a protein and nucleic acid. Bacteria are little prokaryotic microorganisms.
Answer:
Option A) Double-stranded DNA
Explanation:
Note that the presence of thymine, a pyrimidine nitrogenous base in the genome indicates the presence of DNA.
Then, the summation of 28% adenine + 20% thymine + 35% cytosine + 17% guanine to yield 100% confirms that the DNA is double-stranded.
Thus, the structure of the viral genome is Double-stranded DNA.
Complete question:
Question: When crossing two individuals, the offspring display only one of the two traits found in parents. Which principle of Mendelian genetics is supported by this observation?
a) segregation
b) independent assortment
c) dominance and recessiveness
d) allele frequency
Answer:
c) dominance and recessiveness
Explanation:
According to Mendel's principle of dominance and recessiveness, the alleles of one gene may be dominant or recessive in nature. When present together, only the dominant allele is able to express itself. Therefore, a hybrid individual for a gene would express only the dominant phenotype. In the given cross, the progeny express only one of the two traits found in the parents. This means that the progeny is heterozygous for the trait and is expressing the dominant trait. The recessive trait is not expressed due to the presence of the allele for the dominant trait.
