Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A.

Carbon-14 is a dating technique used to estimate the age of the bone which is less than 40,000 years old.

When an organism dies the carbon 14 is converted into nitrogen 14 so, we can estimate the age of the bone.

This method is used by the archaeologist to find the age of the dead and decay animals present inside the earth's surface to study the earth and creature who have lived on earth.

are chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length, gene position and centromere location
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

This definition suits that of "HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES"

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are similar pairs of chromosomes i.e. in length, gene positioning and centromere location (one from each parent) but not identical. Homologous chromosomes are not identical in the sense that, alleles on each pair may be different, resulting in genetic variation of the offspring.

Using humans as a case study, a karyotype (pictorial display of chromosomal arrangement) shows the complete set of chromosomes, which has two complete set (diploid). Each human cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, with each pair contributed by each parent i.e. 46 chromosomes in total. Every chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosome.

A. E. coli is able to use foods other than glucose in the absence of available glucose, because falling levels of glucose cause
Gnom [1K]

Answer: D) cAMP

Explanation:

In the absence of glucose cell can make use of other sources of carbohydrates such as lactose. In E. Coli and other bacteria utilization of lactose depends on the availability of cAMP. Bacteria accumulate cAMP only when starved. When glucose is exhausted, cAMP is available in plenty.

cAMP is necessary for the gene expression because it binds catabolite repressor protein (CAP) to form CAP-cAMP complex. CAP is a lac repressor the binds to the operator site of the lac operon preventing RNAP From binding to the promoter.

RNA polymerase can bind to the promoter site only when CAP-cAMP formed
