Answer:

True

Explanation:

In biology or animal behavior, the term cuckold refers to the act of invading a strange net. The term might be applied to different species that parasite other species. A very well known example is the cuckoos bird.

The Cuckold bees or cuckoo bees are many parasitic species belonging to the Apoidea taxon that characterize for invading nests of other bees.

Females lay their eggs in the cells of the host nest. Depending on the species, the intruding female might kill the owner larvae of the cell, or the emerging parasitic larvae is the one that can destroy the host using their highly developed mandibles as weapons.

As they develope, foreign larvae feed on the foodstuffs that the female owners of the nests bring for their own offspring.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:
Letter E - exons are cut from the strand and removed

Explanation:

Letter A and B are incorrect because the poly-A tail and guanine cap are added to the 3’ and 5’ end respectively. They aid in translation of the mRNA, while serving as protection. The poly-A tail is repeated adenine nucleotides, while the guanine cap is a modified guanine nucleotide.

Letter C is incorrect because alternative splicing is one mechanism for generating variation, and is thought to be one of the reasons for why humans have smaller genomes than other organisms and still maintain high complexity. Alternative splicing is incredibly important because it produces more than one transcript from a pre-mRNA.

Letter D is incorrect because introns are the non coding portions of the mRNA. They are excised to make a smaller mRNA transcript, and one that contains all the protein genes.

This letter E is the correct answer, because exons are the coding portions of the mRNA, and are not excised during RNA processing.

Describe the control group for an experiment that examines the effect of fire intensity on the biodiversity of tree communities.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

explanation below

Explanation:

The control group would be the biodiversity of the trees without the fire

The control group in the experiment would center on the biodiversity of the trees without the fire. Ideally, both the control group and the experimental groups are usually identical in every way except that the experimental group would receive the treatment that is believed to have an effect on the biodiversity of trees.
