Answer:

the correct awnser is (A)

Explanation:

It seems to either be homeostasis so the snake may regulate its state of being like how a person will take off their coat when it gets too warm or growth where the snake sheds its skin to prepare for growth. From what I can tell, the answer can't be excretion, reproduction, or nutrition. As the skin, gave no initial nutritional value so that eliminates excretion and nutrition. The snake isn't giving birth to other snakes during this process so that eliminates Reproduction.

The wild-type form of a gene encodes a protein of length 100 amino acids. A mutant allele has a UAA (instead of the wild-type, C
Orlov [11]

Answer:

48 amino acids

Explanation:

The wild type gene codes for a protein with 100 amino acids. One amino acid is encoded by one triplet code of the gene. This means that the wild type gene has a total 100 triplets or 300 nucleotides to code for a protein of 100 amino acid. Mutation in this protein has introduced the code "UAA" at the 49th codon. The code "UAA" is a stop codon. Therefore, the mRNA transcribed from the mutant allele would code for a protein having 48 amino acids as the protein synthesis will be stopped once the stop codon at the 49th position is read.

What is a good strategy for helping to prevent the spread of antibiotic resistance?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Taking antibiotics only on doctor prescription and completing the full course of antibiotics.

Explanation:

Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria do not get harmed or killed by a drug which is made against them. Misuse and overuse of antibiotics are the main culprits which induce antibiotic resistance in bacteria.

To prevent the spreading of antibiotic-resistant bacteria antibiotics should only be taken on doctor's prescription. Full course of antibiotics should be done to eliminate all the bacteria which ensures that no bacteria is left to gain antibiotic resistance against the drug.

Antibiotics do not affect or kill virus therefore they should not be taken in viral infection.

Predict how an ecosystem would respond if either its producers or decomposers were removed.
