Explanation:
For example a rabbit is a prey because a fox (predetor) can hunt or kill it.
Answer: It is Hypertonic solution.
Explanation:
Hypertonic solution is a solution in which the the solutes Concentration outside the cells is greater than solute concentration inside the cell. When a cell is in Hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell and it will shrivel. The cell will shrinks or cremated and may eventually die.
Answer:
Point mutation is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Sickle cell disorder is a genetic disorder that is caused because of point mutation.
Due to point mutation protein lose their function which results in sickle cell disease.
The mutation in the Hemoglobin Subunit Beta gene in Sickle cell diseases affects the hemoglobin and the red blood cells molecules that transfer oxygen to the cells.
Sickle cell diseases can lead to stroke, organ damage,blindness, priapism,hypertension, acute chest problems.
Answer:Algae contributes to the phosphorus cycle
Explanation:Algae are organisms which have distinct chlorophyll and are autotrophic in nature .Most of them live in water.Algae include the Unicellular chlamydomanas and the multicellular sea weed.some algae are colonial and some are filamentuous.Algae possess chlorophyll, carotenoids and phycobillins as pigments.
Algae are important primary producers in the water bodies and produces a significant portion of oxygen.
Some algae eg diatoms are fossilized due to their glass cell wall and are known as diatomaceous earth, which has various uses such as abrasives,tooth paste and as filters.
Red algae produces calcium carbonate which forms coral reefs.
The products of some algae are used as solid gels and source of agar for microorganism culture.
Answer:
Option-B
Explanation:
Heredity refers to the passing of the traits from the parents to the offsprings or generation and also known as inheritance and Genetic variation is the difference in the genetic material in population which leads to the formation of a variety of traits.
Since the variation in traits is determined by factors (Gregor Mendel) later called "genes" which are passed on to the offsprings, therefore, the branch of biology which studies the pattern of inheritance and variation is known as "Genetics". Gregor Mendel is known as the Father of Genetics.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
