Answer:

Translocation

Explanation:

Abnormalities occur in the chromosomes of living organisms. These chromosomal abnormalities are caused by MUTATION. Mutation is any change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene, which is found on chromosomes.

According to the question, a chromosomal defect that involves the exchange of chromosomal segment between two different chromosomes is called TRANSLOCATION. In Translocation, one part or segment of a chromosome containing genes breaks off and gets reattached to another chromosome in the cell.

Answer:

D. It formed from magma that cooled quickly

Explanation:

From several experiments, geologists have come to terms with the fact that when magma cools rapidly, it does not give room for large and big sized crystals to form. Instead, tiny, little crystals would be formed.

For example, obsidian and most volcanic rocks.

When a magma has enough time to cool and solidify, we see very big crystals of minerals in them.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>a.  1000 X 2^8</h2>

Explanation:

As given;

Initial population of bacteria= 1000;

Log phase growth is exponential phase, period in which bacteria gets double.

Generation time= 15 minutes;

it means, bacteria get double in every 15 minute,

so after 2 hours, bacteria will have 8 generation times;

so the final generation of bacteria is =1000 X 2^8.

Final bacterial generation after two hours = 256,000(1000 X 2^8)

The relationship between transcription and translation?
puteri [66]
Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis. So, the relationship between the two processes is that they are both involved in protein synthesis and that transcription is first, then translation is second.

According to the current, predominant understanding of the disorder, genetic factors alone are enough to produce schizophrenia.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The answer is FALSE.

Explanation:

Schizophrenia is a personality disorder that affects a person's ability to think, feel and behave clearly.

Although there is a very strong genetic component to schizophrenia, genes alone do not completely explain the illness. Rather it is believed that genes do not directly cause schizophrenia, but do make a person vulnerable to developing the disease alongside other factors such as the environment and altered brain chemistry and structure.
