Answer : A particular level of hierarchy in the classification of living beings is called a taxon. For example, the basic level of classification is species, followed by genus, family, order, class, phylum or division, in ascending order.
Answer: C). A biozone can help trace the path of evolution over time.
Biozone is a stratigraphic unit which contains fossils in layers of strata existed in a particular geologic period. It is named as biozone because it depicts the number of biological taxa existed in particular strata. Therefore, the variation in features within taxonomic groups in biozones can give indication of evolution with respect to time.
Answer:
is bound to the constant region of the secondary antibody.
Explanation:
Enzyme immunoassays are the techniques used to detect the presence of antigens with the help of antibodies. Each of the antibody molecules has a constant and variable region.
The primary antibodies are added to the wells. The constant region of the secondary antibody is bound to an enzyme while its variable region is free so that it can bind to the specific antigen.
Addition of substrate to the system is followed by visualization and/or evaluation of antigen as the reaction between enzyme and substrate produce some visible changes such as color change.
Answer:
Plants use carbon dioxide for the process of photosynthesis.
Answer:
Explanation:
Food webs describe the relationships — links or connections — among species in an ecosystem, but the relationships vary in their importance to energy flow and dynamics of species populations. Some trophic relationships are more important than others in dictating how energy flows through ecosystems. Some connections are more influential on species population change. Based on different ways in which species influence one another, Robert Paine proposed three types of food webs based on the species of a rocky intertidal zone on the coast of Washington (Ricklefs 2008, Figure 2). Connectedness webs (or topological food webs) emphasize feeding relationships among species, portrayed as links in a food web (Paine 1980). Energy flow webs quantify energy flow from one species to another. Thickness of an arrow reflects the strength of the relationship. Functional webs (or interaction food webs) represent the importance of each species in maintaining the integrity of a community and reflect influence on the growth rate of other species' populations. As shown in Figure 2, limpets Acmaea pelta and A. mitra in the community consume considerable food energy (energy flow web), but removal of these consumers has no detectable influence on the abundance of their resources (functional web). The most effective control was exerted by sea urchin Stronglocentrotus and the chiton Katharina (Ricklefs 2008).
