Degger [83]

Answer:

Predators are an important part of a healthy ecosystem. Predators remove vulnerable prey, such as the old, injured, sick, or very young, leaving more food for the survival and success of healthy prey animals.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The results are useless

Explanation:

The alkaline/alkaline results could indicate that only the protein was utilized by the organism, but it could also be a result of prolonged incubation. The organisms could have exhausted that available sugar and then reverted to protein catabolism.

if a mutation occurs in the somatic tissue, approximately how many of the gametes will carry the mutation?
Mrac [35]

None: Only those mutations that occur in the germ line and result in gametes will have a chance of being passed on to progeny. An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception.

Somatic mutations can occur in any of the body's cells except germ cells (sperm and egg) and are therefore not passed on to children. These alterations can (but not always) cause cancer or other diseases. Mutations in somatic cells are called somatic mutations. Because they do not occur in the cells that give rise to gametes, the mutation is not transmitted to the next generation sexually. Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs and 2 sex chromosomes that may or may not form a pair. This is the 2n or diploid condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, each of 23 unique chromosomes, one of which is a sex chromosome. Somatic cells are the cells in the body other than sperm and eggs (called germ cells). In humans, somatic cells are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Mutations in a somatic cell occur in somatic cells and are transmitted by mitosis, resulting in cancer. However, mutations in a gamete are passed on by meiosis, resulting in mutated offspring. A genetic mutation occurs during DNA replication, and chromosomal mutations occur during meiosis.

What are two functions of cell surface markers?
svetlana [45]
There are 2 functions for cell surface markers. The first is to recognize the outside cell. The second is to allow the cell to bind to substances outside the cell. Cell surface markers are proteins expressed on the surface of cells that often conveniently serve as markers of specific cell types. There are different types of cell surface markers. These markers are vital for the human body to function. These markers also vitally affect the functions of other biological systems of other organisms and creatures such as animals.
