Answer:
Mass extinctions happen because of climate change, asteroid impacts, massive volcanic eruptions or a combination of these causes. One famous mass extinction event is the one that lead to the extinction of dinosaurs, 65 million years ago.
Explanation:
Answer:
d. regulatory; operator; regulatory
Explanation:
In prokaryotes, the regulation of gene expression is done at the transcription level by operons. Examples are the lac operon and the trp operon. To initiate transcription, RNA polymerase and a DNA segment are required for binding called a promoter.
DNA segments that are close to the promoter serve as binding sites for regulatory, activating or repressing proteins. They are called operons.
The Operon is a regulatory sequence close to prokaryotic DNA that lies between the structural genes and the promoter. It is responsible for controlling the transcription of structural genes. When the repressor, encoded by the regulatory gene, binds to the operator, the promoter is blocked which prevents transcription.
The Promoter is located next to an operator and is the site in the DNA molecule that binds to RNA polymerase (which is a regulatory protein) to initiate transcription.
<span>The tropical rain
forest biome or ecosystem has the highest net primary productivity. It is considered as the highest net primary
productivity for the fact that rainforests usually receives a rainfall of at
least 80 inches or 200 cm rain per year.
It is also believed by the scientists that the rainforests consists of
about half of the plants and animals that are found on the Earth’s land
surface, or even lived near the rainforest areas. Given also the fact that there is an abundant
sunlight in rainforest aside from the abundant amount of rain, its warm
temperatures, and a fast turnover of nutrients, these are the reason why
tropical rainforests is named as the highest net primary productivity.</span>
Answer:
It's a little difficult to see the difference between the finch 1 and finch 2 population lines, but their trends should match those of the food. This answer is assuming the finch 1 population aligns with the seeds line and the finch two population lines up with the fruit line: <u>The finch 1 population has a beak adapted to eating seeds and the finch 2 population has a beak better adapted to eating fruit</u>
Explanation:
Since we are given data for both the food source and the finch population, the answer will most likely reflect that. Therefore eliminating choices A (disease) and C (feathers). Again, this answer is assuming the finch 1 population aligns with the seeds line and the finch two population lines up with the fruit line. The lines for the finch population will match with the availability of food, so less seeds mean less finch 1 and when the amount of seeds rise up you can see the population of finch 1 also rises.
