The diagram shows a nucleic acid in the shape of a double helix.
MrMuchimi

Answer:deoxyribose

Explanation: From the information provided, (though the diagram is not shown), the structure is a DNA double helix. A DNA contains deoxyribose sugar thus the name deoxyribonucleic acid. RNAs contains ribose sugar thus the name ribonucleic acid. A deoxyribose is a pentose (a 5- carbon sugar) which lacks one oxygen atom at position two of its carbon skeleton, hence the name deoxy - ribose. It's usually written chemically as 2- deoxyribose.

Why Is Biodiversity Important? Who Cares? Name three biological services provided by biodiversity.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Biodiversity is usually defined as the diversification of living species that exist on earth and the complexities that occurs in the ecosystem. It includes all the plants, animals, humans and micro-organisms.

The biodiversity is often affected by factors such as climate change, loss of habitat area, and occurrence of invasive species.

Three of the biological services that are provided by biodiversity are as follows-

  • A large number of medicines are being made from the various plant species that exist in an ecosystem.
  • It provides food, on which the organisms are dependent on it.
  • It also provides materials that are used for construction purpose and used as shelter.

inna [77]

I will answer the question accordingly so that it help you under stand it better.

Question A.

During an extreme heat wave, plants with white flowers survive better.

What mechanism is in work here?

Answer: Mechanism of Natural Selection will work here. This is called survival of the fittest which means the best color which fits in harsh conditions will dominate over others and will survive for longer time.

What is the effect on the gene pool?

Answer: The Frequency of white allele will increases because white color is the best fit to extreme heat wave.

Question B.

A person uproots the five closest plants, which all happen to have white flowers.

What mechanism is in work here?

Answer: The mechanism of gene flow will work here as color of flower represents genotype of flower.

What is the effect on the gene pool?

Answer: The Frequency of white allele will increases because genotype of white flowers is increased.
