Nematodes are wormlike organisms which can be seen with naked eye, live in water-filled pore spaces in the soil. Nematodes are in large number in the upper soil layers where organic matter, plant roots, and other resources are most abundant.
The functions of nematodes:
- Free-living nematodes decompose organic material into nutrients and cycled them in the soil by feeding on some bacteria and fungi.
- Nematodes help in distributing bacteria and fungi through the soil and along roots by carrying live and dormant microbes.
- They used as food for higher predators, soil microorthropodes.
- They eat disease-causing organisms, thus suppress their growth.
- They acts as potential bio- control agents.
Answer:
Point A - Intrusive igneous rock
Point B - Extrusive igneous rock
Explanation:
Intrusive igneous rocks are rocks which is formed by molten magma that cools and solidifies below and within the surface of the earth, thereby forming large crystals beneath the earth surface. Examples of Instrusive igneous rocks gabbro, granite, peridotite etc.
Intrusive Ignoeus rock is formed at point A in the diagram given above.
Extrusive Ignoeus rock, on the other hand, is the opposite of Intrusive igneous rock. Extrusive igneous rock is formed when molten rocks, called magma, erupts from beneath the earth and cools and solidifies on the surface of the earth, thereby forming small crystallized rocks. Examples of extrusive igneous rocks are basalt, pumice, etc.
Extrusive Ignoeus rocks would formed at point B in the diagram above.
The number of amino acids that will be in the polypeptide chain produced by the normal DNA or MRNA sequence is usually 30 amino acids. Although the number of amino acids depends on the function of the generated DNA or RNA. The types of amino acids also differ depending on the function.

What is the function of restriction endonucleases in bacteria?
a) They serve no function.
b)They allow bacteria to genetically recombine with other bacteria.
c) They allow bacteria to engineer new DNA fragments.
d)They provide a defense mechanism against infection by viruses.
Our answer is surely D
d)They provide a defense mechanism against infection by viruses.
Explanation:
Restriction enzyme/restriction endonuclease:
Are produced by bacteria for cleaveing DNA at specific sites. Restriction enzymes cleave foreign DNA in the bacterial cell to fight against infecting organisms.
Pls Note:
Restriction enzyme are used by
bacteria to defend against bacterial viruses called bacteriophages or phages
Answer:
<h3>
The Prokaryotic Cell</h3>
Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures. Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome: a piece of circular, double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called the nucleoid.
