A cell biologist determines that diploid cells from a particular species of grasshopper contain 200 picograms of DNA per cell du
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- 200

Explanation:

The cell cycle in eukaryotes mostly takes place in four phases: G₁, S, G₂ and M phase in sequence.

The DNA replication takes place during S phase which doubles the amount of DNA in a cell after which during M- phase the DNA divides into the daughter cell.

The amount of DNA present during G₂ phase is the 200 pg which will remain same until anaphase I as the segregation of chromosomes to the daughter cells takes place in the anaphase. Therefore, the amount of DNA observed after G₂ phase will remain 200 pg till metaphase I.

Thus, 200 is the correct answer.

A biologist studying a desert ecosystem observes that the population of a lizard species increases following a particularly hot,
bekas [8.4K]
Based on the description of events, being that the lizard population appears to increase as soon as the snake population decreases, it appears that the snakes prey on the lizards. This suggests that the snake is a keystone species. A keystone species is one that has a dramatic effect on maintaining the balance of an ecosystem. As soon as the snake population decreases, major changes occur to the ecosystem, such as the lizard population increasing.

Therefore, the answer is D: <span>The snake is a keystone species in the ecosystem.</span>
