They breathe through their skin. Air dissolves on the mucus of their skin, so they MUST stay moist to breathe.
If worms dry out, they suffocate. As fresh air is taken in through the skin, oxygen is drawn into the worm's circulatory system, and the worm's hearts pump the oxygenated blood to the head area.
The best answer would be:
A. DNA is being transcribed into mRNA.
If you'd like to know why:
In the image shown, you can see the <u>BLUE </u>strands and the <u>RED </u>strand. The Blue strand is DNA and the Red strand is mRNA. What is happening in the picture is TRANSCRIPTION. It is the process of making an RNA copy of the DNA strand to create proteins based on the DNA strand.
The <u>GREEN</u> blob is most likely RNA polymerase. Its job is to synthesize or make a complementary RNA strand of the DNA by assembling nucleotides to form an RNA strand based on the DNA template.
Explanation:
Before a chemical reaction, the elements and compounds which are about to take part in the reaction are known as reactants.
And, when the chemical reaction takes place between the given elements and compounds then they change into products.
For example, we take sodium and chlorine elements and before any chemical reaction they are the reactants.
But when a chemical reaction takes place between sodium and chlorine then it results into the formation of sodium chloride which is the product.
1. breeding of individuals that have genes for two different characteristics:
DIHYBRID CROSS.
We call it a dihybrid cross when we are considering a cross between two different traits.
"di" means having two traits involved (for example, trait A and trait B), the "hybrid" means that each trait will have two different alleles (for gene A: A or a; for gene B: B or b), one is dominant and the other is recessive.
2. a grid system used to predict possible combinations of genes due to random fertilization: PUNNETT SQUARE
The Punnett square is a grid system that helps us predict an outcome of a cross or a breeding experiment. We this, we can determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype.
This is very useful when we are considering more than one gene, making it less confusing.
3. a condition in which both alleles are dominant: CODOMINANCE
Tere are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB): 100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers. It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.
4. when more than two alternatives exist for a gene: MULTIPLE ALLELES
Mendel thought that only two possible alternatives could exist for a gene, but there are cases that have more than 3 possibilities. Some of those can be really popular in a population while others not so much.
This happens with rabbit's fur. They can be black, brown, grayish,
Himalayan patterning or white fur.
5.a condition in which neither pair of alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype: INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE
Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.
For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr-white
By crossing this plants we will obtain 100% of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.

An increase in pollution [could] lead to a decrease in <span>genetic variation in a population of tuna.
