Answer:

I predict that the transgenic mouse fur will be lighter.

Explanation:

the most likely difference in phenotype of the transgenic mouse strain compared to the wild-type mouse strain is that The mouse fur will be lighter because the Polar bear lyst gene is known with its lack of pigment or white hair. since the mouses lyst gene has been deleted and it now has the polar bears lyst gene, its fur shows this characteristic of the polar bear, and makes it different from the wild mouse.

Answer:

The transgenic mouse must present fur without pigmentation, or with reduced pigmentation.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, a group of scientists genetically engineers a mouse strain by deleting the mouse lyst gene and replacing it with the polar bear lyst gene. This will modify the genotype of the mice making them transgenic mice different from ordinary mice.

As you may already know, polar bears have pigment-free fur, for that reason, these animals have white fur, allowing them to camouflage themselves in the environment in which they live.

When the genes of these bears are not added to the genome of a mouse, we can expect the mouse fur to change, appearing without any type of pigmentation, becoming totally white, or, appearing lighter than normal.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Wild forest fires cause extensive damage to flora and fauna and result in the destruction of man-made property in and around the area of the fire. To maintain the health of the forest and prevent the large wild forest people or man]nagers use prescribe fire or controlled fired when there is no risk of loss of life and resources.

These controlled fires are used by forest officials and fire managers to prevent or keep wildfires at bay. It helps in cleared-off areas by playing the role of a barrier for fire from spreading further.

There is always the risk of flora fauna and the life of wild animals. They can get killed and lose their habitat and the smoke rose from this fire causes for environmental concern too.

What do the data suggest about the effects of cane toads on the predatory behavior of black snakes in areas where the toads have
Brrunno [24]

Answer: C. Black snakes will not prey on cane toads in areas where cane toads have been present for 40–60 years.

Explanation:

Cane toad secret a toxin called bufotoxin which is a defense mechanism against predators. These defense mechanism is capable of killing black snakes if they eat cane toads. Within a period of 40 to 60 years, the black snakes in these area will be aware of the presence of a toxin capable of killing them in cane toads and will not prey on them. This phenomenon is termed learned behavioral adaptation.
