The presence of vertebral column or notochord at any stage of life in any organism is the characteristic of vertebrate.
Explanation:
An animal is vertebrate if it fulfils the following criteria:
Presence of vertebral column or notochord.
Presence of endoskeleton or backbone.
The spinal cord runs above the vertebral column.
Humans embryo has notochord which becomes a vertebral column.
The alimentary canals end in the anus.
Mouth is present ta the anterior side of the vertebrate.
Have legs, fins or wings for movement.
Presence of a nervous system and sensory organs.
Presence of skin, lungs or gills.
Presence of a circulatory system.
Vertebrates include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
Answer: C. The population size became limited due to factors such as availability of food.
Explanation:
Out of all the choices, C is the most likely to happen since more often then not, food runs out because a species has too many members. C is an example of the environment’s carrying capacity limiting the chipmunk species.
Since we are not told if the chipmunk population is really small, interbreeding may not happen. Predators hunt prey, not eat fruits like chipmunks do (I’m assuming what chipmunks eat.) If there was a predator species that came in, they would hunt the chipmunks instead of competing for the same resources. D just doesn’t make much sense in my opinion because that wouldn’t limit the chipmunk population.
Endomembrane system -- not in prokaryotes
cytoskeleton -- a structural part of cytoplasm sometimes occurrent in prokaryotes
mitochondria -- not in prokaryotes
nucleus -- if this is a "membrane-bound" nucleus, then definitely not in prokaryotes
cytoplasm -- this is the fluid that houses everything in the cell membrane
flagella -- little "tail" for locomotion, so no
cilia -- similar to flagella, little feelers usually for locomotion
ribosomes -- these make protein using amino acids
chloroplasts -- not in prokaryotes
membrane -- just a casing surrounding a cell or organelle
organelles -- general word for the parts of a cell that perform various functions
cell membrane -- just the casing for the cell, not where genetic material's located
<span>nucleoid --- ding ding ding :-) this is it; a nucleoid is the genetic material which is loosely existing in the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell</span>
Answer:
An infective agent that typically consists of a nucleic acid molecule in a protein coat, is too small to be seen by light microscopy, and is able to multiply only within the living cells of a host.
