Answer:
a) 99.93%
b) 99.98%
Explanation:
Given that:
Total population size was only around 18 individuals ( for black-footed ferret)
If the annual survival rate in the wild was 0.4%.
a)
What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year?
To find that; we multiply the annual survival rate in the wild with the total population; which is:
(0.4%×18) = 0.072%
Then; we subtract it from a total of 100% in order to determine the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year.
= (100.00% - 0.072%)
= 99.93%
b)
What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present?
Given that;
Because of the presence of canine distemper disease, the annual mortality rate might have been as high as 0.89.
To determine the probability; we have:
1 - Annual mortality rate = annual survival rate
1 - 0.89 = 0.11 %
Therefore, 0.11% of 18 individuals = (0.0011 × 18)
= 0.0198%
Probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present = 100 - probability of annual survival rate
= (100 - 0.0198)%
= 99.98%
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Topoisomerase is an enzyme helps in over winding Or underwinding of DNA during replication. Helps in the topological correction. So non-functional topoisomerase leads to tangled DNA and prevents replication..
2. Primases are the enzymes helps in the synthesis of short RNA sequences used as primers in replication. Non functional primase leads to no primer synthesis.
3. DNA Polymerase is an enzyme helps in the addition of new nucleotide to the growing strand in replication. Non functional DNA polymerase prevents the strand growing as no new nucleotides were added.
4. Helicases are the enzymes helps in the separation of double strands into single and helps in each strand to be copied. Non functional helicase leads to prevention of unwinding of strands and replication inhibition.
5. ligase is an enzyme that joins nicks(small gaps) in the DNA strand by creating ester bond. Non functional ligase leads to unjointed gaps of lagging strand.
6. Single strand binding proteins(SSB's) are the small proteins that binds to the single strands of DNA and holds them in a place not to get together while replicating. Non functional SSB's leads to parental strands come back together and prevents replication.
I think its acid fermentation, but I could be wrong. My class studied this a while ago.
Latitude measures how far a point is north or south of the equator. Since the earth is round, distance from the equator is measured in angular degrees with the equator being 0 degrees and the northernmost point -- the North Pole -- being at 90 degrees. The southernmost point -- the South Pole -- is also at 90 degrees.<span>Latitude is measured in degrees north when in the northern hemisphere and degrees south when in the southern hemisphere.
Hope this helps. :)</span>
