Rough-skinned newts and common garter snakes are in an "evolutionary arms race." In this phenomenon, two species continually evo

lve adaptations against one another to increase their own chance of survival. Rough-skinned newts produce tetrodotoxin, a type of poison, as a defense mechanism. Most common garter snakes have some resistance to the toxin. In areas where common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts coexist, rough-skinned newts express very high levels of tetrodotoxin, and common garter snakes have evolved a very high degree of resistance to tetrodotoxin.
Based on this information, what is the most likely relationship between common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts?

A.
commensalism
B.
predator and prey
C.
facultative mutualism
D.
obligate parasitism

Answer:

The correct answer is : B.

Explanation:

  • The rough-skinned newts and common garter snakes exhibit a Prey-Predator relationship.
  • Here, the newt is the prey for the predator which is the snake.
  • The newt produces chemical substances which are toxic for the snakes so that they can avoid attack by the snakes.
  • In response, the snakes produce other chemical substances that can neutralise the toxic effect of the newt's toxins.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Transcription.

Explanation:

Transcription may be defined as the process of formation of RNA molecules from the DNA template. Specific enzymes and chemical factors are required for the process of transcription.

During transcription, the RNA copy is made from the DNA template. Three main different types of RNA are messenger RNA, transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA.

Thus, the answer is transcription.

Ainsley lives in a town 360 miles directly north of Orlando. One Saturday, she takes the train from her town to Orlando. The tra
MakcuM [25]
Take note that the total distance that needs to be traveled is 360 miles. The train is moving at 60mph and 2.5 hours have passed. To get the remaining distance, first you need to solve for the distance traveled already. 

Distance is equal to the velocity times the time travelling or:

d = vt

So considering the given we can get the distance traveled in 2.5 hours. 

d = vt
d = (60mph)(2.5h)
d = 150miles

So far, Ainsley traveled 150 miles. If her town is 360 miles away, you can get the remaining by subtracting the distance already traveled from the total distance. 

360 miles - 150 miles = 210 miles. 

Now if you want to put that into a single equation you can do that by combining all the equations together.

d = 360 miles - (vt).
d = 360 miles - (60mph)(2.5 h)
d = 360 miles - 150 miles
d = 210 miles
