Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades, or even millions of years after a mass extinction
Answer:Use the word RNA (Ribonucleic acid) in a sentence
Explanation:Viruses represent a large group of infective agents that are composed of a core of nucleic acids, either RNA or DNA, surrounded by a layer of protein.
Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
An individual must have all three dominant alleles to be red, in homozygosis or heterozygosis (R_E_D_).
<u>The parental cross was:</u>
RREEDD x rreedd
F1: RrEeDd
<u>The test cross</u> is between the RrEeDd indiviudals and homozygous recessive rreedd.
The genes assort independently, so we can use Mendel's law of segregation to predict separately for each gene the proportion of the offspring that will have the dominant alleles.
<h3><u>Rr x rr</u></h3>
1/2 Rr
1/2 rr
<h3><u>Ee x ee</u></h3>
1/2 Ee
1/2 ee
<h3><u>Dd x dd</u></h3>
1/2 Dd
1/2 dd
Genes are independent, so the probability of having a R_E_D_ offpsring is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of having a dominant allele for each gene:
1/2 (Rr) × 1/2 (Ee) × 1/2 (Dd)= 1/8
Answer: B. Take short showers instead of baths.
Explanation:
The water is the most important non-living environmental factor which is the main requirement for survival of every living being. Even though water is a renewable resource which can be replenish by the mode of water cycling in nature but with the increase in the global population the demand of freshwater has increased. Also with the increase in the causes and sources of water pollution the levels of freshwater sources are decreasing. Therefore, the issues of water conservation should be taken into consideration.
According to the given situation, if an individual needs to conserve water, take short showers instead of baths is the correct option because of the fact that short showers will prevents the wastage of large amount of water which could be wasted while taking baths.
A mutation which occurs when a base is introduced into the DNA sequence before transcription begins will lead to frame-shift of a single base on the DNA sequence resulting in nonfunctional protein from the transcribed mRNA.
Explanation:
This change either through addition or deletion of a single base in the codon sequences of the DNA will modify the amino acid codes and will result in nonfunctional proteins after transcription.
This mutation will just result in change of a single base, i.e., it would be added either to the enhancer region or the silencer region of the sequence before the promoter which initiates transcription.
The mRNA produced due to mutated DNA sequence after the deletion or insertion point will be read as out of frame thus resulting in nonsense protein.
