Answer:
ALL OF THE ABOVE
Explanation:
Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics. Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.
While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.
Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.
Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.
All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.
<h2>DNA </h2>
Explanation:
1) Experiment done by Griffith:
- Griffith used two related strains of bacteria, known as R and S
- R bacteria were nonvirulent, meaning that they did not cause sickness when injected into a mouse whereas mice injected with live S bacteria developed pneumonia and died
- Griffith tried injecting mice with heat-killed S bacteria (that is, S bacteria that had been heated to high temperatures, causing the cells to die), the heat-killed S bacteria did not cause disease in mice
- When harmless R bacteria were combined with harmless heat-killed S bacteria and injected into a mouse, not only did the mouse developed disease and died, but when Griffith took a blood sample from the dead mouse, he found that it contained living S bacteria
- Griffith concluded that the R-strain bacteria must have taken up what he called a transforming principle from the heat-killed S bacteria, which allowed them to transform into smooth-coated bacteria and become virulent
2) Experiment done by Avery:
- Avery, McCarty and MacLeod set out to identify Griffith's transforming principle
- They began with large cultures of heat-killed S cells and, through a long series of biochemical steps progressively purified the transforming principle by washing away, separating out, or enzymatically destroying the other cellular components
- These results all pointed to DNA as the likely transforming principle but Avery was cautious in interpreting his results
- He realized that it was still possible that some contaminating substance present in small amounts, not DNA, was the actual transforming principle
3) Experiment done by Hershey and Chase:
- Hershey and Chase studied bacteriophage, or viruses that attack bacteria
- The phages they used were simple particles composed of protein and DNA, with the outer structures made of protein and the inner core consisting of DNA
- Hershey and Chase concluded that DNA, not protein, was injected into host cells and made up the genetic material of the phage
Answer:
because they reduce interspecific competition
Explanation:
Narrower niches are known to be more specific and limited compared to broader niches, which are generally less specific and less limited. The species that live in broad niches are named generalists because they are able to withstand different conditions. A narrow niche is often correlated with reduced overlap and thus tends to reduce interspecific competition. For example, coral reefs consist of a wide variety of species (including anemones, sea sponges, sea fans, brain corals, etc) which have narrow niches, thus showing high biodiversity.
Answer:
Active transport
Explanation:
The molecules are moving from a low concentration to a high concentration across a cell membrane via a protein. ATP is used in this reaction.
We know it cannot be diffusion, facilitated diffusion, passive transport, or osmosis, because these are all passive processes. In the picture, the molecules are moving against their concentration gradient and uses energy.
It cannot be endocytosis or exocytosis, as there are no vesicles.
Active transport is the movement of molecules from a low concentration to a high concentration across a cell membrane against their concentration gradient. ATP is used to supply the energy for this process.
