A mountain lion population recently experienced a drop in population size. The best  limiting factor that is involved is- The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite.

Only this could be the best possible answer out of all other options because when there are no deer, there is no food for the lions.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite

Explanation:

As the prime food of lion in the jungle is deer, so if the population of deer is to be considered as declining , there will be some certain amount of negative impact on the population of lion as well.

The parasite attacking the deer causes their death , due to which very few deer are available as food to the lions thus the lions reach a stage of starvation after a certain period of time . In absence of food they may start dying as well thus the factor "The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite" is a limiting factor.

Answer: The energy is transferred to ATP.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which sugars such as glucose is oxidized to produce energy (in form of ATP) to drive cellular processes.

The high energy bonds contained in 1 mole of glucose is split by the action of glycolytic enzymes, and other enzymes of the citric acid cycle eventually generating 36 ATP molecules.

Thus, the high energy of glucose is transferred to ATP.

Which RNA sequence will result from the transcription of the DNA sequence AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA?
dsp73

Answer:

A. UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process of Gene expression, which involves the synthesizing of a mRNA molecule from a DNA strand. This process (transcription) which is carried out or catalyzed by an enzyme called RNA polymerase, uses the complementary base pairing rule to synthesize nucleotides.

The complementary base pairing rule as proposed by Chargaff states that Adenine base (A) should bond with Thymine base (T). Likewise for Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C). Hence, in a DNA strand with sequence: AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA, the following RNA will result:

UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU.

Note that, Uracil base replaced Thymine base in the mRNA molecule.

Since; A-U and G-C

AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA ---------- DNA

UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU --------- RNA

How does a cloned sheep compare genetically to a sheep that is made using sexual reproduction
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The cloned sheep is the result of nuclear fusion from two different sheeps. In one sheep the enucleated egg is fused with DNA of another sheep.

Explanation:

The cloned sheep is the result of nuclear fusion of 2 different sheep. In the cloning process, the egg cell of one sheep was enucleated. Then a DNA from another sheep had taken and put into the enucleated egg cell to fuse.  Then the egg allowed to divide in the laboratory to the blastocyst stage. The blastocyst incorporated into a surrogate mother or a third sheep.  The surrogate mother after some months gives birth to the cloned sheep.  

The sheep produced by normal reproduction has the DNA of two parents. The sheep have two parents and resemble their parents.  

In cloned sheep, there is no biological parent and have DNA of the donor sheep. That means the cloned sheep has a gene of a single sheep not the DNA of others. Because the egg cell was enucleated before the cloning process.  The sheep are more like the donor DNA sheep not like the surrogate mother.

In the lac operon, the repressor:a. binds to allolactose and becomes active, blocking lac gene expression.b. binds allolactose a
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

c. binds to allolactose and becomes inactive, allowing lac gene expression to occur.

Explanation:

Interaction between allolactose and repressor leads to allosteric repulsion which makes repressor inactive leading to the lac gene expression. This is the reason why allolactose is known as the inducer of lac operon becasue it causes gene expression in lac operon.

In the absence of allolactose, the repressor binds the operator and does not allow RNA polymerase to do transcription.
