Answer: Option C.
High-energy waves like UV light or radiation physically damage the DNA
Explanation:
Mutation is the change or alteration that occur in the DNA sequence or nucleotides sequence of an organism which is caused by mistakes when the organism is copied or environmental factors such as UV light.
Ultraviolet light cause mutations by activating the SOS repair systemof which is a part of i a new DNA polymerase that has no power to edit e but has the ability to move past the thymine dimer and synthesize DNA, This lead to cells able to replicate but with a high frequency of mutations.
Mutations are not a mechanism for evolution.
They are similar in three main ways
1.Both DNA and proteins are polymers.
2. Both are made from smaller subunits joined together. DNA is made of subunits called nucleotides joined together and protein is made up subunits called amino acids joined together.
3. In both of them, these subunits or monomers are linked together by covalent bonds.
Nucleotides are a combination of a nitrogen - rich base that is either adenine, guanine, cytosine or thymine, together with a phosphate group and a sugar.
<h2>Gelatin </h2>
Explanation:
Gelatin is a differential medium which tests the ability of an organism to produce an exoenzyme, called gelatinase (this enzyme hydrolyzes gelatin)
When gelatin is at a temperature below 32°C (or within a few degrees thereof), it is a semisolid material and at temperatures above 32°C, it is a viscous liquid
When gelatin is broken down, it can no longer solidify and if an organism can break down gelatin, the areas where the organism has grown will remain liquid even if the gelatin is refrigerated
No the conclusion by student is not right because the tube must be runny after incubation followed by refrigeration to be considered gelatinase positive
Answer:
how changes in biodiversity impact an ecosystem
Explanation:
Water hyacinth is a free-floating perennial aquatic plant. This plant is native to tropical and sub-tropical South America. As an invasive species, when it grows in the new environment causes severe ecological or economic harm. By growing where it not native, it can spread extremely fast, blanketing a water surface in a very short period of time. It can limit boat traffic, swimming, and fishing, and it can deprive native plants and animals of sunlight and oxygen, thus reducing the local biodiversity.
This is how an ecosystem effects biodiversity impact. When a biological species grows in the new environment, It can affect the biodiversity or environment that can affect the biological species.
