5. What is the critical distinction between allopolyploidy and autopolyploidy?

Biology
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. In autopolyploidy, one parental species contributes to the polyploidy; in allopolyploidy, two parental species contribute to the polyploidy.

Explanation:

Autopolyploidy is the polyploidy that arises when the organisms have more than two complete sets of the same genome. For example, if a diploid species is represented as "AA", its autopolyploid with four complete sets of the genome can be represented as "AAAA".

On the other hand, allopolyploidy occurs when the polyploid carries more than two complete sets of the genome from separate species. For example, if two diploid species are represented as "AA" and "BB", their allopolyploid with four complete sets of the genome can be represented as "AABB".

What could happen if bacterial DNA is damaged by UV light and the damaged DNA is not repaired by the bacteria?
enot [183]

Answer:

b. neither DNA replication nor transcription can occur, and the bacteria will probably die

Explanation:

Ultraviolet light (UV) is a powerful mutagenic agent that produces thymine dimers among contiguous base pairs. These dimers are highly stable, and thus DNA repair mechanisms are inefficient. UV light is particularly harmful to bacteria and viruses. It is for that reason that UV is used to sanitize by damaging such pathogens, avoiding them from multiplying and consequently also inhibiting transcription.

Which sentences describe ponds and lakes?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

- These are water bodies formed from melting glaciers

- However, their size can vary from a few square meters to thousands of square kilometers

- They can be seasonal, existing for a few months or exist for hundreds of years or more

Explanation:

The lakes and the ponds are freshwater bodies of water. They can be formed in numerous different ways, from melting of glaciers, rivers flowing into closed valleys, changes in the geography of a space, increased amounts of precipitation. They can vary in size, and there are ponds and lakes that are very small, just few square meters, or to be thousands of square kilometers in size. Some of the lakes and ponds tend to be seasonal, unlike the majority that are existing throughout the whole year, and the reasons for this are the climate and the manner in which they form. Some lakes can be very old, millions of years of age, like the Ohrid Lake in Macedonia, which is also the most important lake in the world from biogeographical stance of point, and it is considered as one of the most attractive ones in the world as well.
