Answer:

C)  hunting and killing the snakes on the farm

Explanation:

Hunting and killing the snakes on the farm would lead to an increase in the rodent population. Snakes and rodents comprise a predator-prey relationship in an ecosystem. If you remove the predator, the prey population will logically increase.

Answer:

A. Hunting and killing the snakes on the farm

Explanation:

Snakes are naturally born predators and rodents such as rats and mice serve as their preys. Hence, their presence on the farm will limit the population of rodents in such farm.

<em>Therefore, hunting and killing all the snakes on the farm will allow rodent population to flourish, leading to a spike in their population.</em>

The correct option is A.

Use the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 to place the protein creation steps below in the correct order. Ribosome attaches to the mRNA.
kirza4 [7]

Answer: The correct sequence for the protein creation is as follows-

1) Information is transcribed in DNA to mRNA.

2) mRNA leaves the nucleus.

3) Ribosome attaches to the mRNA.

4)  tRNA anticodon carries an amino acid that compliments the mRNA codon.

5) The chain of amino acids forms a protein.

According to the Central Dogma, the genetic information is transferred from DNA to mRNA to Proteins.

The first step is transcription in which DNA is converted to mRNA with the help of enzyme RNA polymerase. In eukaryotic cells, this process occurs in the nucleus.

This is followed by translation, which takes place in the cytoplasm when mRNA leaves the nucleus.

Ribosomes are the specialized organelles, which act as the site for protein synthesis ( translation).

Ribosomes attach to the mRNA. tRNA brings amino acid, which has anticodon complementary to the codon present in the mRNA. A chain of amino acids is thus synthesized, which is called Protein.
