Biological diversity. It studies all living organisms and how they interact with each other and their environment.
Answer: Lk for this plasmid = 47
Explanation:
The formula to compute Lk is given by :-
Topological Linking Number (Lk): Twist (Tw) + Writhe (Wr)
Given: A plasmid 41 twists and 6 right handed writhes.
i.e. Twist (Tw) = 41 , Writhe (Wr) = 6
Then, Topological Linking Number (Lk) for this plasmid : = 41+6
= 47
Hence, the Lk for this plasmid = 47
I believe animals that possess homologous structures probably evolved from the same ancestor. Homologous structures are similar because of common ancestry. A homologous structure is an example of an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor.
Answer:
C) production of sperm and eggs
Explanation:
Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.
Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.
Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells. If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
Restriction enzymes are DNA cutting enzymes found within bacteria. They can cut the DNA molecule.
