Breeding programs and habitat preserves have been established as an effort to protect the florida panther from extinction. studi

es indicate that a minimum of 50 adult panthers are needed in order to have a self-sustaining population, which is one that does not need to be supplemented with breeding programs. if a wild population of 40 panthers were left alone, which would most likely happen to the panther population?

The answer is ‘panthers will become extinct due to the lack of genetic diversity’. The population will enter what is referred to an extinction vortex. This is when environmental, demographic and genetic factors interact and reinforce each other in a downward spiral of a species. The lack of genetic diversity in the population causes inbreeding and lack of diversity on which natural selection can act upon for the population to adapt.

DNA wrapped around histone proteins forms a material called ____ which condenses tightly to form _____ that can be seen with a l
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Nucleosomes

2. Chromatin

3. Sister chroamtid

4. Centromere

Explanation:

The DNA is a very long molecule which if has to be passed on to the daughter cell as it is will cause problems. So, to reduce problems a cell form tightly packed structure of DNA so that they can be passed easily to the daughter cell.

The packaging of DNA begins with the wrapping of the DNA around histone proteins which forms the 11 nm basic structural units called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes start condensing each other and form 30 nm structure chromatin fibres.

The chromatin fibres undergo replication during S phase which produces an exact copy of the chromatin called sister chromatids bound to each other at a central point called centromere which helps the separation of the chromatids during M phase.

I think that this is something you should, as the assignment states, "conduct independent research". meaning, this is something you have to do AT LEAST 90% yourself. my suggestion: start by googling 'yellowstone eruption' and go from there. I just don't want you to be in trouble with your teacher because you plagarizing.

Sometimes the sequence of dna gets mutated and an adenine is paired to a cytosine. Why is this interaction unstable?
kirza4 [7]

Answer;

-Because the chemical groups that form hydrogen bonds are in the wrong positions.

Explanation;

-A base pair is any of the pairs of nucleotides connecting the complementary strands of a molecule of DNA or RNA and consisting of a purine linked to a pyrimidine by hydrogen bonds.

-The base pairs are adenine-thymine and guanine-cytosine in DNA, and adenine-uracil and guanine-cytosine in RNA or in hybrid DNA-RNA pairing. A mutation in the sequence of DNA that makes an adenine to be paired with a cytosine results to an unstable interaction because the chemical groups that form hydrogen bonds are in the wrong positions.
