Answer:

-Reporter gene.

Explanation:

A reporter gene can be defined as a gene, which is used as an indicator to check uptake or expression of gene by a cell or organism. It is attached to a regulatory sequence of a different gene of interest in cell culture, bacteria, plants, or animals by the researchers and used to confer its expression in that organism or cell.

Gene for GFP (green fluorescent protein) is an example of reporter gene, due to which cells that express gene of interest emit green color under blue light.

As in given experiment, target gene (gene for rhodopsin) is attached with gene for GFP, it represents an example of reporter gene.

Thus, the correct answer is 'reporter gene.'

invertebrates and fish that eat dead organic matter will be most abundant in the of freshwater lakes.
mamaluj [8]

Invertebrates and fish that eat dead organic matter will be most abundant in the<u> benthic zone of freshwater lakes.</u>

In a marine water body, the most lowest zone in terms of ecology is called benthic zone. It name comes from the Greek letter βένθος which means 'depths'.

In this zone, sediments lay down at floor of the sea and provide essential nutrients and minerals to the organisms living in this zone.

Benthic zone, also referred to as ecological zone, possesses peculiar characteristics such as high pressure and low temperature.

The sediments of this zone recycle the nutrients and help in the survival of aquatic organisms.

In a pond, the primary producer is a green algae, the primary consumer is the crustacean, the secondary consumer is the bluegill
densk [106]

Explanation: The green algae population will increase because if the crustaceans are killed, there is no consumption of algae hence resulting in increased levels of algae.

After that the blue gill fish that is the consumer of crustaceans will also be affected, their numbers will start to reduce with time and they might die off unless they move to another habitat so the option "D" is wrong

How can a mother with the B blood type, having A antibodies in her plasma, carry a baby full-term that inherits the A blood type
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The mother can carry a full-term baby with A blood type because the mother's blood does not mix with the baby's blood, so the mother's immune system does not activate attacking the baby.

Explanation:

The reason why a mother with B blood type and A antibodies in her system can carry a full-term pregnancy is thanks to the placenta. The placenta is a shared organ between the mother and the baby. Its function is to protect the baby and produce the necessary exchanges of nutrients and wastes between the maternal blood and the baby's blood. As the two types of blood are separated, and they never get in contact during pregnancy, the immune system of the mother does not recognize the baby as a treat. The mother can have A antibodies in her plasma due to a previous pregnancy where during delivery, the two types of blood mixed, also it can be due to any contact with the A blood type. When the foreign blood enters the body, the immune system forms antibodies for it.
