Answer:These include closing the doors and windows in the evenings to prevent entry of mosquitoes into human dwellings; using mosquito repellant lotions, creams.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. maintenance of axons is not a cellular activity associated with microtubules.
Explanation:
Microtubules are hollow, bead-like, tiny tubular structure that helps cells maintain its shapes. Together with microfilaments and intermediate filaments, they form part of the cell's cytoskeleton. Microtubules also contributes to the cell movement or cytokinesis that includes muscle contractions in muscle cells. Microtubules also replicated chromosomes to opposite ends of a cell during cell division. Microtubules also contribute to the parts of the cell that help it move and are structural elements of cilia, centrioles and flagella. A bundle of microtubules makes up an axonemal structure of cilia and flagella.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Without crossing over, each chromosome would be either maternal or paternal, greatly reducing the number of possible genetic combinations, which would greatly reduce the amount of genetic variation between related individuals and within a species.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Point mutations arise when a single amino acid base is changed. This could cause some differences in the organism or it may not. Manufactured point mutations in model systems such as yeast offer a powerful tool to examine the function of different amino acids in a protein.
There are three types of point mutations
- Silent: these mutations have a single residue change but it does not affect the amino acid that is being coded. There is no change to the wild type
- Nonsense: will cause a stop or start or gain of start/stop codon.
- Mis-sense: will cause a change of amino acid residue. There are two types of mis-sense Conservative and non-conservative. The former will cause a change in amino acid base to one that has similar properties while the former will change to an amino acid of different properties often having different traits than the wild type.
Well the food that heterotrophs eat are either the autotrophs who photosynthesize, or other heterotrophs. When they eat the autotrophs the energy stored in the plant matter gets transferred to them. If another animal was to eat the initial consumer of the autotrophs then they would be getting the energy stored in that animal that was obtained by eating the autotrophs who had the initial energy.<span>
