Biology

Dimas [21]3 years ago

I have no straight answer with ABDE as of your lack there-of. But here.

Gene flow is the introduction of genes/alleles between populations. An example is a flower having it´s pollen carried by a bee. The bee then introduces it (intentional or not.) to other flowers.

Another example is a pack of gray wolves suddenly having a different wolf introduced. *As long as it can breed, that is* They will slowly incorporate the new alleles/genes into the pack.

I wish you luck young lad.

g Classify the statements as describing deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA). DNA RNA is a single molecule that
zmey [24]

Answer:

DNA:

- is a single molecule that can be over 10,000,000 nucleotides long

- is usually double stranded  

- includes the base thymine

- is the genome for prokaryotic organisms

RNA:

- can be translated into a protein  

- is usually single stranded  

- includes ribose sugar  

- is a single molecule that can form a complex secondary structure

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary genetic material of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, while RNA is the genetic material of many viruses. DNA is a double helix molecule composed of four types of nucleotides: a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine), a five-carbon sugar (i.e., deoxyribose), and a phosphate group. On the other hand, RNA is usually a single-stranded molecule whose nucleotides contain ribose sugars and Uracil bases replace Thymine bases. During translation, a type of RNA molecule referred to as messenger RNA (mRNA) is used as template to direct the synthesis of a polypeptide chain (protein). This RNA molecule can fold to form stable double-stranded RNA hairpins (i.e., secondary structures).

During upwelling, nutrient-rich water rises to the surface. How would this most likely affect the biotic components of the ecosy
hodyreva [135]

Answer: Increase in species numbers and diversity

Explanation:

Upwelling is an oceanographic phenomena in which the water from the bottom layers of the ocean usually above the seafloor get displaced and reach upto the surface layers with the effect of wind currents. The water carries away along with it the nutrients and the organic matter to the surface layers which allows the efficient growth of plant and planktonic diversity which favors the growth of sea animals like fishes and others. Hence, by this way the species diversity and numbers increases by the process of upwelling.
