posledela3 years ago
7 0
Sericulture, or silk farming, is the rearing of silkworms for the production of silk. Although there are several commercial species of silkworms, Bombyx mori (the caterpillar of the domesticated silk moth) is the most widely used and intensively studied silkworm. Silk was first produced in China as early as the Neolithic period. Sericulture has become an important cottage industry in countries such as Brazil, China, France, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, and Russia. Today, China and India are the two main producers, with more than 60% of the world's annual production.

How do plasma cells form, and how do they help fight pathogens
xz_007 [3.2K]
<span>Plasma cells, they are also called  plasma B cells,  or effector B cells, are white blood cells that secrete large volumes of antibodies. They are transported by the blood plasma and the lymphatic system. Plasma cells originate in the bone marrow; B cells differentiate into plasma cells that produce antibody molecules closely modeled after the receptors of the precursor B cell. Once released into the blood and lymph,</span>

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since Mark's wife was a carrier, it means that she is heterozygous for the trait. And after Mark got tested, they decided to have children due to no increased risk if they do have children, it means the condition is not an autosomal dominant condition but a recessive condition because if the condition is dominant, only one copy of the affected allele is needed to increase risk.

Thus, with a no increased risk, it means Mark is normal i.e. carries no copy of the recessive allele.

Can someone help me out please?!!!!!!!!
liraira [26]
Producers are organisms that make their own food. Plants would be an example. Primary consumers would be those that eat producers(plants,algae). Secondary consumers are animals that eat primary consumers. Herbivores are animals that only eat plants. Carnivores are those that only eat meat and don’t eat plants. Omnivores are those that eat both meat and plants. De composers are those that decompose organic material like dead animals. The herbivores here are the kangaroo rats,grasshoppers and bunny’s. The carnivores here are the hawk,lizard,tarantula and rattlesnake. I don’t think there is an omnivore. And the only decomposed here is the bacteria. As it decomposes the bodies of the animals when they are dead.

How can mutations change the gene pool of a population?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The changes in the gene pool occurs from the one generation to another this process is called as the microevolution. The allele frequencies in the gene pool change due to many processes such as gene flow, natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation. In mutation the genetic variations occurs in the genome of the organisms due to change in the genetic makeup of the organisms new traits are produced which are passed on to the new generation and this brings change in diversity of genes in the gene pool.
