Biology

Lamarck noticed many similarities among a variety of animals and was interested in the fossil record.


This led Lamarck to argue that organisms changed as a result of changes in their environment.

Lamarck developed the theory of acquired characteristics that organisms changed during their lifetime to accommodate their environment and that these acquired characteristics became inherited in their offspring. This theory was preceded for example by Erasmus Darwin who believed that "improvements" to organisms could be passed on or inherited.

lara [203]

Answer:

The correct option is H) these acids change the environment.

Explanation:

Soil can be described as the part of the environment where plants grow. In primary succession, life stars arising in an area which has no soil and only rocks, This is possible because lichens are the organisms which can grow on the rocks. Lichens secrete certain acids which break down these rocks and hence soil begins to form when these rocks break. This makes it possible for other plant species to grow on these lands.

Describe how a plasmid can be genetically modified to include a piece of foreign dna that alters the phenotype of bacterial cell
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Simple version:

First, the section with the desirable gene must be identified. Assuming that has already happened, the section of DNA must be excised from the original genome using restriction enzymes, which recognize certain DNA sequences and snip DNA at those sites. DNA ligase is used to "glue" these ends back together. The DNA is inserted into a plasmid (also with restriction enzymes), which would usually contain antibiotic-resistance genes (so they survive in an environment containing the antibiotic, which would also help show if the bacteria have been successfully transformed). 

Then comes the actual transformation process. The bacteria to be transformed are mixed with calcium chloride (which causes the bacteria to be more receptive to the plasmids) and then mixed with the plasmids. The bacterial cells are subjected to a heat shock (the solution is heated and rapidly cooled, e.g. by placing the mixture in a hot water bath and quickly transferred to ice) so they will take up the plasmid (since the temperature change makes the membrane more permeable). The bacteria are placed on a growth medium containing the antibiotic they're resistant to. Only those successfully transformed would survive.
