Biology

6 0

Answer:

Grinnell was the scientist who coined the term niche. An ecological niche the place where the species and their members live together. Niche is quite different from habitat.  

Niche include all the things which have impacts on a population and population impact on its environment and other species in their area. So the ecological niche does not mean the volume of area a species occupies but also include its specific functional role in its community.

For example, a lake can be considered as a habitat for fish but a lake can provide a different niche for fishes. A big fish hunting a small fish in a portion of a lake is a niche and a small fish hunting an insect in another portion of the lake is another niche.

The testcross makes it possible to determine the genotype of an individual of unknown genotype who exhibits the dominant version
klio [65]

Answer:

All of the above answer choices are correct.

Explanation:

Test cross is done to find out the genotype of an individual displaying dominant phenotype as it can be homozygous or heterozygous. To find this the individual is crossed with a recessive phenotype individual. For example: a dominant trait tall height can be homozygous TT or heterozygous Tt. If it is TT all the offspring of test cross with tt will be tall. If it is Tt half of the offspring will be tall and half of the offspring will be short.

Multiple offspring are required to come to the final result because offspring production happens in random order and it might take a few tries before another type of phenotype is produced. For example: If a test cross produces an individual with dominant phenotype we can still not surely say if the test individual is homozygous or heterozygous because both can produce dominant phenotype in test cross. We need more offspring to check if the recessive phenotype is produced or not and accordingly decide the genotype of test individual.

Hence all of the above answer choices are correct.

Answer:

TAAGCCGATAAATGCTAACGGTA

Explanation:

Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) [Apples grow on Trees]

Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G) [Cows eat Grass]

Therefore using this complimentary bonding system we just assing each nucleotide its complimentary pair

ATTCGGCTATTTACGATTGCCAT ----- Original Parental strand

TAAGCCGATAAATGCTAACGGTA ------- New strand
