Answer:

The correct answer is option A, that is, the atoms in the mineral get rearranged.

Explanation:

With time, and under immense pressure, the atoms of a substance can become reorganized, producing a novel substance. For example, the carbon present underground in the form of coal encounters with intense pressure, that further gets rearranged or reorganized to convert into a diamond, that is, the atoms of coal get rearrange themselves with time to produce a diamond.

Which statement is true about climate change and biodiversity?
8090 [49]
Climate change and biodiversity are two completely different things. In some areas, climate change will increase biodiversity, allowing more species to live in certain climates, but it will make some species lose their habitats. Biodiversity helps ecosystems thrive, and generally keeps things in balance. However, introducing too many species in an area can cause increase competition for food, risking predators of different species to kill one another off. Both climate change and biodiversity can be good and bad.

Answer: C. It can help some species and hurt others.

What is the significance of a recombinant plasmid?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

recombinant DNA

A strand of DNA formed by splicing DNA from 2 different organisms is called recombinant DNA

Explanation:

Using the techniques of recombinant DNA technology, certain enzymes known as restriction enzymes capable of cleaving double stranded DNA in the plasmid of bacteria genomes (other organisms like eukaryotes can also be used) are used to obtain specific sequences of DNA bearing desirable traits in the both organisms.

Once the two DNA fragments have been obtained, another enzyme known as DNA ligase is used to seal the point of splicing, thereby constructing a single DNA from the two organisms.

This single DNA is known as Recombinant DNA

Carl Woese proposed the domain classification a. using shape to classify microbial species b. to divide the single-celled organi
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

c. to account for two major and distinct prokaryotic groups in addition to eukaryotes.

Explanation:

Microbiologist Carl Woese compared the ribosomal RNA sequence of the small subunit of RNA. Various organisms have structurally different small subunit of the ribosomes. According to Woese the molecular composition of rRNA in closely related organisms should be more similar than in distantly related organisms. He analyzed the 16S rRNA of various organisms and observed that there are two distinct groups of prokaryotes. He divided the prokaryotes among two domains: Bacteria and Archaea. He placed all the eukaryotes in the domain Eukarya.
