The correct option is A.
Scientists had discovered that some animals, such as Elysia chlorotica has the capacity to photosynthesize. The animal usually incorporate chloroplast into its cell from the algae which it feeds on. The chloroplast enable it to make proteins which are essential for photosynthesis.

The right answer is A. Some carry out photosynthesis...

The sea slug, Elysia chlorotica, is the first discovered animal able to use photosynthesis to produce energy. This photosynthesis is performed by the chloroplasts of its main food source, the seaweed Vaucheria litorea. They are sequestered by the digestive epithelium of the slug for several months according to a phenomenon of kleptoplasty, continuing their function of carrying out photosynthesis.  

However, the chloroplasts of Vaucheria litorea have transferred a large part of their genes required for photosynthesis to the nucleus of the cells of this alga during evolution. Photosynthesis is nevertheless maintained in the sea slug thanks to the transfer of a gene necessary for photosynthesis from the kernel of the seaweed to the genotype of the slug.

Describe how DNA replication relates to transmission and conservation of genetic information.
Jet001 [13]
DNA replication follows the base pairing rule (A with T and G with C). This ensures identical replication of the genetic information; hence it's conservation. Each daughter DNA double helix contains one old strand of DNA and one newly-synthesized strand of DNA. This is known as the semi-conservative mechanism.
DNA replication also occurs during mitosis which produces haploid gametes. Each parent contributes half of the genetic information during fertilization of two gametes, thus regenerating the diploid number. Genes from both parents are transmitted to the offspring.

A student has a marble with a mass of 50 grams. To determine the volume of the marble, the water displacement method is used. Th
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

D 2.5 g/mL​

Explanation:

The density of a substance/object can be calculated by using the formula:

Density = mass/volume

Where;

Density = g/mL

Mass = grams

Volume = mL

The water displacement method was used to calculate the volume of the marble. The student places the marble in 50 mL of water in a graduated cylinder, and the water level rises to 70 mL. This means that the volume of the marble is 70mL - 50mL = 20mL

The mass of the marble is 50g

Hence, the density of the marble is as follows:

Density = 50/20

Density = 2.5g/mL
