Biology

Answer:

C). Germline mutations are inherited from a parent while somatic mutations are caused by mutagens in the environment.

Explanation:

MUTATION is any change that occurs to the nucleotide sequence of a gene whether caused by a mistake during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substance). A mutation can be germline or somatic depending on the affected area or how it occured.

Germline mutations are mutations that affects the nucleotide sequence in a gamete or reproductive cell (germline cells). Hence, it can be inherited by an offspring during reproduction. On the other hand, somatic mutations affect body cells. It is a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene in the body cell or somatic cell. It is usually induced by mutation-causing substances in the environment called MUTAGENS. Somatic mutations can not be transferred to offsprings and it only affects the cells of the specific area it occured.

Answer:

Somatic vs Germline Mutations. ... Somatic mutations – occur in a single body cell and cannot be inherited (only tissues derived from mutated cell are affected) Germline mutations – occur in gametes and can be passed onto offspring (every cell in the entire organism will be affected)

Where do queen bees lay eggs and larval bees are fed by worker bees
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

1. Queen bees lay their eggs after within each cell inside a honeycomb.

2. True. Worker bees feed the larvae with a combination of nutrients, from nectar and pollen to bee milk and water.

Explanation:

1. Queen bees lay their eggs after within each cell inside a honeycomb (hive) <em>[</em><u><em>See image below]</em></u><em> </em>during the winter.

The queen is able to lay over two thousand eggs PER DAY! Each egg has an approximate size of 1 mm long. This process then leads to the formation of a whole new colony of bees.

<u><em></em></u>

2. True.

Worker bees have the largest density of all, that is, there are numerous worker bees within a colony. As their name "worker" implies, they have plenty of tasks to perform. For example, they have to clean the hive regularly, ventilate it during warm conditions or keep it warm during cold conditions, and also care for the queen. However, one the most important roles of workers is to feed the larvae, during this stage they are also called "nurse bees." These bees feed the young with a combination of nutrients, from <u>nectar and pollen to bee milk and water</u>.

Thorns and small hairs on plant stems and leaves help to
Mkey [24]

The correct answer is - physically dettering herbivory, protection from frost, and minimizing evaporation.

The plants have developed multiple traits that help them in multiple different circumstances, and some of those traits are the thorns and the hairs on their steams and leaves.

The thorns primarily serve for protection of the plant. They are very sharp and give a painful sting (occasionally poisonous one), so they are a physical protection from the herbivores that would try to eat parts of the plants.

The hairs have multiple functions. They are like a coat that helps the plant to not be affected by frost, help to stop the evaporation, and also partially manage to stop most of the insects that feed on plants.

A human skin cell has 46 chromosomes. How many chromosomes will each daughter cell have at the end of mitosis?
konstantin123 [22]
Answer : 30 Chromosomes

Explanation : At the end of mitosis, the two daughter cells will be exact copies of the original cell. Each daughter cell will have 30 chromosomes. At the end of meiosis II, each cell would have half the original number of chromosomes, that is, 15 chromosomes.

which of the following is an example of epithelial tissue? A) Bone B) Skin C) Fat D) Muscle User: which of the following tissue
lions [1.4K]
<span>Answer B, skin, is an example of epithelial tissue. All other answer are examples of different types of tissue; Bone being osseous tissue, fat being connective tissue and muscle being muscle tissue. Nervous tissue is one of the types that has cells that expand across the entire human body. Nerves can be both long and reach every corner of the body. The other type of tissue that can cross the entire body is epithelial. This type of tissue does not produce large cells that span great distances on/in the body. But, these cells do provide the lining throughout the body and are the tissue that makes up the protective layer called skin. Both connective tissue and muscle tissue form large amounts of tissue in the body but they do not expand to all reaches of it.</span>
