Answer:
The correct answer is option a. "For recombinant DNA technology or for the creation of synthetic life, only the gene that produces a particular desired product is needed, and not the entire organism that carried the gene".
Explanation:
Genetic biodiversity and population genetics are modern concepts related to the total number of discovered genes, which in the video Craig Venter explains that are around 20 million. The number of discovered genes are very important for scientific development because for recombinant DNA technology or for the creation of synthetic life, only the gene that produces a particular desired product is needed, and not the entire organism that carried the gene. Therefore, each new gene that is discovered or available, has the potential to be used in recombinant DNA technology developments.
Answer:
d. sampling unit
Explanation:
<u>Sampling unit:</u>
Refers to the unit or group of elements that are selected from an original population during an investigation. The sampling unit might be composed of a statistical unit or a group of statistical units.
The statistical unit or element is the elemental unit that composes the target population.
The sampling unit is a basic concept to keep present during the development of the investigation project. It is the minimal unit of observation that will be used to take information about the variables of interest. All the sample unit composes the population and is defined by an <em>N</em>, while only some representative sample units compose the sample, and are represented with an <em>n</em>.
So, the whole population can not be measured because of its size, or the individuals´ characteristics, among other many factors. So we need to take a random and representative sample or group of the population to proceed with our investigation. This sample or group is composed of some of the original population individuals, which are defined as "sample units".
A cell, they are the tiniest living thing on earth.
Answer:
Heterotrophs or consumers
Explanation:
This are organisms that cannot produce their own food. They rely on autotrophs ( plants or producers ) for food. Most of the times these are normally animals.
