The image related to that question is attached below.

In the figure, we can see that on the left side, sea otters are very influential in the population of sea creatures, if the killer whales are not in the environment. That's because sea otters are strong predators of sea urchins. However, sea urchins are not as influential in the size of the seaweed population, providing little effect on that population. This is because sea otters control the population of sea urchins through predation. Thus, if more sea urchins are consumed by sea otters, the sea urchin population becomes small and consequently the consumption of algae (by sea urchins) is small.

On the right side of the figure, killer whales are great predators of sea otters and establish a strong predatorism, being very influential in the population of sea otters. This predatorism causes the otter population to decrease and stay in controlled and limited sizes. In this case, with few sea otters in the environment, their predatorism in relation to sea urchins is less, allowing the sea urchin population to grow and to consume more seaweed, providing a strong impact on the seaweed population.

In a diploid individual, one chromosome carries A and B genes, and the homologous chromosome carries different forms (alleles) o

Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

This involves a dihybrid inheritance I.e. two genes are being passed on. During meiosis, specifically, the Prophase stage, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) line side by side. According to the question, one chromosome contains A and B alleles and its homologue, received by the other parent carries a and b alleles. This means that the diploid individual has a genotype AaBb for that gene.

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles separate independently of one another into gametes. I.e. allele A and a separates into the gametes without affecting alleles B and b of the other gene.

Crossing-over, which is the exchange of chromosomal segment occurs between the two homologues. Hence, the exchange of chromosomal segments containing alleles in the individual will possibly produce four gametes with the genotypes: AB, Ab, aB, ab.

Viral DNA makes mRNA by the process of _____. Viral DNA makes mRNA by the process of _____. replication infection translation ly

Pachacha [2.7K]

<h2>The correct answer is: Transcription.</h2>

Explanation:

Viruses do not possess any machinery necessary for the purpose of their reproduction.
They only possess their genetic material enclosed within a capsid structure.
The capsid is constituted of glycoproteins.
They completely depend upon the components and organelles of the host cells whom they infect to help them carry out their reproduction process.
After infecting a host cell, the viruses hijack all the machinery and components of the host cell and use them for the purpose of transcribing their genetic material (DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid) to produce the virus-specific mRNAs (messenger Ribonucleic Acid).
These mRNAs are further translated into virus-specific proteins using the host-specific Ribosomes. These virus-specific proteins are required for replicating the viral genetic material and producing the capsid structure.
The virus-specific proteins and glycoproteins are synthesized by utilizing the raw materials from the host cells.
Transcription is the process by which an enzyme called RNA polymerase or DNA dependent RNA polymerase copies the protein coding region of the DNA (gene) in the form of an RNA sequence (mRNA).
The synthesis of the mRNA happens in the 5' to 3' direction. This mRNA is further recognized and converted into the amino acid sequence with the help of the Ribosome.
The amino acid sequence folds to give rise to the protein.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds, Three main ingredients are required for photosynthesis: water, carbon dioxide, and light. Plants use light energy from the sun to convert six water molecules (6 H2O) and six carbon dioxide molecules (6 CO2) into a molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen, Carbohydrates(glucose) and Oxygen is the end product.
