This kind of modeling is known as (D) simulation. A computer program is used to simulate an environment, in this case, the zoo. Instead of having to do an actual experiment which harms real animals, a simulation is done to cut costs and avoid using live samples.

What term is used to describe bacterial cells that can naturally take up dna from their environment?
Maru [420]
<h2>The correct answer is: Competent cells</h2>

Explanation:

  • Bacterial cells have the capability of incorporating foreign naked DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid fragments from the environment or the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. This process is known as Transformation.
  • The bacterial cells which are able to undergo transformation are called Competent bacterial cells.
  • Some of the bacterial cells are naturally competent like<em> Bacillus subtilis, Streptocossus pneumoniae</em> while others  like <em>Escherishia coli </em>need to be chemically treated to make them artificially competent.
  • In natural competence, the foreign DNA from the cell exterior is incorporated into the cell interior through specific protein complexes present in the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells.
  • In artificial competence, the negative charge on foreign DNA is masked by positively charged calcium ions (so that it is not repelled by the negative charge of the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell plasma membrane) and then small pores are created in the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells by giving a heat shock to the cells. This results in the uptake of the DNA by the bacterial cells.

Butterflies laying their eggs on milkweed plants occurs at what level of the biosphere hierarchy?
nikitadnepr [17]
<span>The answer is: at the level of population. A population is a group of organisms of the same species in an area. Here, we have a group of butterflies of the same species laying eggs on milkweed plants. Therefore, butterflies laying their eggs on milkweed plants occurs at the level of population. </span>

Genetic variability is beneficial for a species because it enhances that species’ ability to adapt to changing conditions. Why,
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:  Genetic variability  is beneficial for the survival and adaptation. But a flaw in DNA Replication Control or check may leads to the death of cell or may contribute in the disease or cancer.

Explanation:

Almost every species comes with the diversified collection of genes (genome). And some of the diversity comes from the spontaneous mutation but it occurs on a very low frequency. The genes either express constitutively or occasionally for an important task like genes responsible in the generation of ATP by glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, electron transport chain etc. While some of the genes are inducible that is only activated in a response to an external stimuli. Genetic variations in inducible genes might account for the adaptability or negligible change in a species genetic expression but genetic variation in constitutive or house keeping genes leads to cancer cell formation or even cell death. like mutation occur in p53 genes dysregulate the cell cycle or mutation occur in DNA polymerase enzyme that is responsible for the incorporation of NTPs (nucleotide tri-phosphates) according to wobble base pairing rule in order to make a complementary new strand from the old or parent strand, will eventually leads to cause mutations ultimately results in cell death or cancerous cell formation.
