This is a typical example of R selection life strategy. These species, including the Atlantic cod, produce a large number of offspring with a low chance of surviving to adulthood. This strategy is particularly successful in environments that are unstable. The main advantage of this strategy in changing environments is that the ''cost'' of making offspring is very low, so you the species can produce large numbers offspring, ensuring that at least some of them will survive into adulthood and continue the species.
Natural selection, in this case, favors the individuals that are able to adapt the fastest to the changing conditions.

Researchers have noticed that some men who were sterile because their sperm cells were unable to move also had chronic infection
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Kartegener's disorder

Explanation:

The respiratory tract has cilia which move. Sperms also have a tail that moves. They both have the same protein in their structure called microtubules. There is a disorder in which there is the absence of a part in the microtubule. Dynein arms absent in microtubules. Because the respiratory system and sperm both contain cilia that's why these two systems have a connection and not work properly.

Why are single-stranded binding proteins necessary for DNA replication?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

d.They prevent the two parental strands from coming together again.

Explanation:

During the process of DNA replication, the two DNA strands should be separated from each other to serve as a template. To separate the two DNA strands, the helicase enzyme breaks down the hydrogen bonds between the complementary base pairs of the DNA strands. The process uses ATP as a source of energy.

Due to the presence of complementary base pairs, the separated DNA strands have a tendency to reanneal by the formation of hydrogen bonds. To prevent the reannealing of separated DNA strands, single stranded binding proteins bind to them. Binding to single stranded binding proteins to the separated DNA strands does not allow them to reanneal.
