<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
An increase in the total biomass of consumers in the world
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Carbon fixation is the process through which carbon dioxide is removed from the air and incorporated into an organic molecule.
- Carbon fixation occurs during the light independent reaction of photosynthesis and is the first step in the C3 or Calvin Cycle.
- The Calvin cycle uses the energy from short-lived electronically excited carriers to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds that can be used by the organism.
The second option: meiosis and fertilization
process A is meiosis, you can see that the gamete(haploid cell) results from the diploid cell. The gamete has n chromosomes(39), whereas the diploid cell has 2n(78)
process B is fertilization the two gametes(haploid) fuse together to form the zygote(diploid)
Answer:
DNA restriction enzymes cut the DNA molecule, while DNA ligases join the resulting DNA fragments
Explanation:
Transformation is a naturally occurring process by which bacteria incorporate exogenous genetic material from their surrounding environment. This process (transformation) is used for DNA cloning via plasmid vectors. In DNA cloning, transformation occurs after restriction enzymes cut the DNA at specific sequences named palindromic sequences (i.e, sequences that can be read the same in opposite direction). Restriction enzymes can generate sticky-ends, where enzymes make staggered cuts in the two strands (e.g., <em>BamH</em>), or blunt ends, where the resulting strands are of the same length (e.g., <em>HaeIII</em>). In general, sticky-end enzymes are more useful because they generate a 3' overhang in one molecule and a complementary 5' overhang in the other, increasing the yield and specificity of ligation. During ligation, a DNA ligase is used to join both DNA strands by forming phosphodiester bonds in the plasmid. Following transformation, bacteria can be selected on antibiotic plates.
The first statement describes the environmental factor that affected the skipper butterflies.
When the birds became involved in the skipper butterflies ecosystem, they became a biotic environmental factor. The other answer choices are not environmental factors, but they are adaptations and examples of survival of the fittest.
Hope this helps! Good luck! :)
