The reasons why  241am smoke detectors are perfectly safe is because;
(i)   The amount of americium is very little.
(ii)   The aluminium core is where the detector is hosted.
(iii)  The detector has a plastic cover.
(iv)   Radiation is limited in penetrating power.
(v)    There is a low number which is leaving the case.
(iv) ions get trapped by electrodes.

African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes.
Readme [11.4K]
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the term ADAPTIVE RADIATION. African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes. Over time, specialized teeth and body colorations have evolved for each species in response to mutations and competition for food and mates. This change over time is an example of ADAPTIVE RADIATION. Adaptive radiation by definition, is <span>the diversification of a group of organisms into forms filling different ecological niches.</span>

Mutations rII1 and rII2 are known to fall into the rIIA and rIIB cistrons (genes) respectively. Cells of E. coli B are infected
viktelen [127]

Answer:

the answer is A. E. coli B

Explanation:

The multiplicity of infection (MOI) refers to the ratio between the numbers of viruses used to infect <em>E. coli</em> cells and the numbers of these <em>E. coli </em>cells. Benzer carried out several experiments in order to define the gene in regard to function. Benzer observed that <em>E. coli </em>strains with point mutations could be classified into two (2) complementary classes regarding coinfection using the restrictive strain as the host. With regard to his experiments, Benzer observed that rII1 and rII2 mutants (rapid lysis mutants) are complementary when they produce progeny after coinfect E. coli K (where neither mutant can lyse the host by itself). The rII group of mutants studied by Benzer does not produce plaques on <em>E. coli</em> K strains that carry phage λ (lysogenic for λ), but they produce plaques on <em>E. coli</em> B strains. This study showed that rIIA and rIIB are different genes and/or cistrons in the rII region.
