Biological control methods for managing insect pests are effective for reasons that include which of the following? They promote

genetic resistance in the target species, resulting in a population explosion of the target species. They generally focus on one target insect to ensure that the target insect population remains low. They can lead to a self-perpetuating population of a control species.

Answer:

Option B, They generally focus on one target insect to ensure that the target insect population remains low.

Explanation:

Biological pest control methodologies are focused towards a specific species of pest and do not harm the non-targeted species. These methods are environment friendly and do not produce any harmful residues. Also they do not develop any kind of resistance in species due to which the same bio pesticide can be used again and again. Since these methods have high specificity, they may require usage of two or more bio pesticides all together.  

Hence, option B is correct

Sickle-cell trait is caused by a single defective allele, but sickle-cell disease only occurs in individuals that are homozygous
Pavel [41]

Answer:

6,25%

Explanation:

Considering that the couple has a trait of sickle cell anemia, we know that both are heterozygous for the disease (Aa) and therefore can have children with the following genotypes:

Parents: Aa X Aa

Children: AA(A x A), Aa(A x a), Aa (a x A) and aa(a x a)

Knowing that sickle cell anemia only occurs in homozygous individuals, the probability for children to have the disease according to each crossing is:

A x A = 1/4 = 25%

A x a = 1/4 = 25%

a x A = 1/4 = 25%

a x a = 1/4 = 25%

The probability of forming each homozygous child (aa) is 1/4 or 25%. Since they are two children, the probability of both having sickle cell anemia is calculated by multiplying the probability of each, so:

1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16 = 0.0625 = 6.25%

It is concluded that the probability of a heterozygous couple for sickle cell anemia to have two children with the disease is 6.25%.

Explain how the random alignment of homologous chromosomes during metaphase I
borishaifa [10]

The randomness in the alignment of recombined chromosomes at the metaphase plate, coupled with the crossing over events between nonsister chromatids, are responsible for much of the genetic variation in the offspring. To clarify this further, remember that the homologous chromosomes of a sexually reproducing organism are originally inherited as two separate sets, one from each parent. Using humans as an example, one set of 23 chromosomes is present in the egg donated by the mother. The father provides the other set of 23 chromosomes in the sperm that fertilizes the egg. Every cell of the multicellular offspring has copies of the original two sets of homologous chromosomes. In prophase I of meiosis, the homologous chromosomes form the tetrads. In metaphase I, these pairs line up at the midway point between the two poles of the cell to form the metaphase plate. Because there is an equal chance that a microtubule fiber will encounter a maternally or paternally inherited chromosome, the arrangement of the tetrads at the metaphase plate is random. Thus, any maternally inherited chromosome may face either pole. Likewise, any paternally inherited chromosome may also face either pole. The orientation of each tetrad is independent of the orientation of the other 22 tetrads.

dexar [7]
The correct answer for question number 1 is A - eukaryotes are the name for unicellular organisms that dominated earth up to the Precambrian times.

The correct answer for question number 2 is C - the greenhouse effect is related to the phenomenon of an increase in average surface temperature known as global warming.

The correct answer for question number 3 is D - the colourless and odourless gas that is produced by the radioactive decay of Uranium-238 and is considered to be a cancer-causing agent is Radon.

The correct answer for question number 4 is B - Scientists can determine if oxygen existed in Earth's Archean atmosphere by looking for oxidized iron in rocks.
