The biome that covers most of the central United States, from North Dakota to Texas, is temperate grasslands. Temperate grassland is the term used for a larger grouping of biomes that includes within it tropical savannas. They are defined by a dominance of grasses, and have a large temperature difference between different parts of the year.

Mutation is a random and non-adaptive process. This was first proven by:

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

Mutation may be defined as the sudden, heritable change in the nucleotide sequence of the organism. Mutation may occur due to the errors in DNA replication or may occurs due to the mutagens.

Joshua and Lederberg experiment explains that mutation is the non adaptive and random process that occur in the organism. He used the replica plating of E.coli and grows them on streptomycin drug. The bacteria was grown on the the primary plate and they are transferred to the secondary plate with streptomycin drug in the growth environment. The resistant strain of bacteria grows in the streptomycin environment.The pattern of bacteria growth on the plate explained that mutation occurs randomly and it is a non adaptive process.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

Why do we classify organisms??

OLEGan [10]

Answer: we classify organisms to group living beings who share the same characteristics or who have common attributes

Explanation: So, since the late '60s and based on the proposal of the researcher Robert Whittaker, most biologists group living beings into 5 large groups called Kingdoms, based mainly on three characteristics:

* type of cell,

* number of cells in each organism and

* the way of obtaining energy.

As a result, we could have 5 kingdoms; and these kingdoms are:

Monera, represented by the microorganisms of prokaryotic type known colloquially as "bacteria"

-Fungi, represented by mushrooms

-Plantae, the kingdom of the plants

-Animalia, the kingdom of the animals, and

-Protist, a very diverse group of organisms of eukaryotic type.
