Answer:

Dogs shown in this picture belongs to the secondary consumer trophic level which consumes primary consumer herbivores. These primary consumer herbivores are dependent on grass for food which is a primary producer. If all dogs die, the population of primary consumer herbivores will increase. This increase will lead to decrease in grass at a drastic rate. Therefore, primary producers (grass) will be affected.

In the reproductive cloning of an animal the genome of the cloned individual comes from
MrRa [10]
Reproductive cloning, researchers remove a mature somatic cell, such as a skin cell, from an animal that they wish to copy. They then transfer the DNA of the donor animal's somatic cell into an egg cell, or oocyte, that has had its own DNA-containing nucleus removed.

In a certain species of plant, the allele to produce green melons (G) is dominant over the allele to produce yellow melons (g).
marishachu [46]

Answer:

4.26

Explanation:

Let the green-melon parents be Gg, then we expect the cross with the yellow-melon plant gg so as to produce 50% Gg and other 50% of gg offspring. What we observed was that 53 green and a 41 yellow. Based on the total number of 94 offspring , we expected half and a half ratios to be 47 of each color.

                                Observed(o)   Expected(e)   (o-e)    $(o-e)^2$      $(o-e)^2/e$

Green-melon plant        53                    47               6          36             0.766

Yellow-melon plant        41                    47              -6          36             0.766

Therefore the chi-square value is 1.53 which is less than the critical value of 3.84. Therefore, the null hypothesis is accepted.

Which of these individuals is likely to be most successful in an evolutionary sense?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct options is B.

Explanation:

Evolution has to do with the changes that occur in a particular population of organism as a results of environmental changes and other pressure that the population is exposed to and how the organism adapt to counter the changes.

Out of all the options given in this question, the individual that is most likely to be successful in an evolutionary sense is the one describe in option B. This is because, the organism has a short life span of five days and it left behind ten children that are capable of reproducing. Evolution is a process that occur over a long period of time. So, if it an environmental change occur in the environment where the organism lives, it will be easier for the new generation and the subsequent generations of the organism to adapt to the change.

Those organisms that have long life span will not be able to adapt as easily as the organisms in options B because it will take many years and many generations for them to do that.

goldenfox [79]

DNA is double-stranded while RNA is single stranded.  DNA contains thymine base whereas RNA contains uracil base.  RNA contains a ribose sugar while DNA contains a deoxyribose sugar.  The function of DNA is long term storage of generic info.  The function of RNA is for translating and transferring genetic code from the DNA to ribosomes to create proteins.
