How does gel electrophoresis help determine relatedness in a species?

Biology
1 answer:
Jlenok [28]2 years ago
8 0
Gel electrophoresis is used in a device that compares the DNA of organisms to each other.

When gel electrophoresis is used, bands of DNA are pulled to polar ends, creating a line of bands of DNA varying in thickness. Some bands may attract more than others which then makes this line of DNA bands. This occurs with several samples of DNA used in a device with gel electrophoresis. The lines of bands that are the most similar are the ones that are the most related to each other. If the line of bands is identical to another line of bands, it is the same organism.

Is decay of dead plant material a biotic factor or an abiotic factor?
Juliette [100K]
Technically you are able to argue both ends. Biotic factors are living things while abiotic factors are no living things. since the plant was once living, you can argue that it is a biotic factor, however, I would say the dead plant decay would be abiotic because it is not living anymore. I hope that helped!

What role did mycorrhizae play in the transition of plants to land?
Colt1911 [192]
Mycorrhizae are associations between fungi and the roots of plants, where the Fungi provides minerals to the plant. It enabled plants and fungi to be the first organisms to invade land successfully 430 million years ago. In most cases the relationship between host plants and the mycorrhizal fungus is mutualistic, or mutually beneficial. The Mycorrhizal fungi come into direct contact with plant roots and with the soil, adding to the plants ability to gather nutrients and water from the soil through the fungus.
