Dimas [21]3 years ago

Benthic organisms live on the ocean floor, where photosynthesis cannot occur. Since they cannot feed on any plants or living things that require photosynthesis to live, they must feed on either falling nutrients or on each other. Due to the lack of a stable food source, life progresses slowly and survival isn't a promise.

The benthic organism is an organism that lives on, in or near the seafloor. This also helps the environment and marine life by providing structure, alter water currents, and stabilize shorelines, hard substrate settlement. Some recycle nutrients and improve water quality. An animal of a large group distinguished by the possession of a backbone or spinal column, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fishes.

Sliva [168]

<u>Answer :-</u> <em>Option 2</em> 90 mm is correct.

<u>Explanation :-</u>

  • In the given diagram, we consider the starting point of measurement the value where the mouth of the earthworm is pointed i.e 1.5 cm.
  • So if we count from 1.5 cm that is the start point and then we see the end point i.e 10.5 cm we get,

10.5 - 1.5 = 9.0 cm

So the length of the earthworm is 9.0 cm as seen from the scale.

  • Now to convert cm into mm, we need to know that:

1 cm = 10 mm

Thus, to convert 9.0 cm to mm

we need to multiply 9 by 10

9 X 10 = 90

So the answer is 90 mm.

Indels can result in a shift in the DNA sequence(frame shift Mutation),or formation of entirely new protein outside the original sequence.

Indel have being said to be the cause of some disease, some Indels are used as genetic markers in natural population.

When guanine is deleted a new base is formed UGG AUG UCC CCA UA...a shift occur leading to the formation of new base pair.
