<span>D.The primary structure of RNA is fundamentally different than the primary structure of DNA.
</span>
The correct answer is option A. RNA can catalyze reactions because the sugar of RNA is much more reactive than the sugar of DNA. The extra <span>OH on the 2' carbon makes the difference.</span>

<u><em>Naturally acquired active immunity:</em></u>  It happens when someone is exposed to a live disease and gets the disease. The person then becomes immune as a result of the first immune response.

It's sort of like a fall and learn to get up for the body.

<em><u>Artificially acquired active immunity</u></em>:  It can be isert into the body by a vaccine so you won't get sick. That's why if you get a flu shot, you won't get the flu, if you get a chicken pox vaccine, you won't get the chicken pox.

It's like you're body has a personal guide telling it where and where not to step in order to not fall.

Predict how the removal of an herbivore from a food web could affect the entire community
katrin [286]
Plants and animals live in interacting, interwined communities. There is a characteristic set of species in different environments. For example, certain species of trees, shrubs, ground cover, arthropods, reptiles, mammals, birds etc. live in a temperate forest environment. A completely different set of creatures live in a marsh, or a grassland or an agroecosystem. However, the relationships between these groups can be defined by the ecological role they play, the flow of energy between them and the cycling of nutrients between them. This is a fancy way of saying "everything is connected"! And if you change one part of the system, something else changes. In an ecosystem management decision, you hope you know what those consequences of your actions are!) This is important in managing agroecosystems as well.
