Many genetic technologies involve the transferring of genes from one organism to another. For example, a gene in human DNA codes
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The universality of genetic code.

Explanation:

The DNA is a molecule made up from 4 different nucleotides (A, T, C or G). The sequence in which these nucleotides are ordered constitute a code that gives a cell instructions to produce a specific protein. This is called the genetic code.

Every three nucleotides code for a specific amino acid. For example, ACG codes for Arginine, CUC codes for Proline, and so on.

The genetic code is universal. This means that in all living organisms, a particular sequence of three nucleotides will code for the same amino acid. This property guarantees that the human gene that codes for human insulin will also code for human insulin in bacteria.

Alina [70]

Answer:

D) resource partitioning.

Explanation:

Resource partitioning explains how species that are similar (in this case the two-spot and the three-spot avenger beetles) use their resources together (coexist). They live in the same community and use the same resources, but they don't push one another to extinction through competition. They use the same limiting resource at different  time and thus, compete less with one another.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

A sensory neuron.

Explanation:

The nervous system can be divided in two systems: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system (CNS) is composed by the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of the nerves and ganglia. Neurons are specialized cells that form the basic functional unit of the nervous system. There are three types of neurons: sensory, motor and interneurons. The sensory neurons are in charge of bringing signals into the CNS, and the motor neurons are in charge of carrying signals out of the CNS. The interneurons act as intermediaries, passing information between two neurons.  

As the name implies, sensory neurons are activated by the senses, for example: sound, visible light, physical contact (heat and cold), chemical signals (smell and taste). The loss of sensation in one hand would be the result of a damaged sensory neuron.
