Both the shrimps and the cockroaches are considered to be as scavengers at any point because they feed on dead organisms. Therefore the most accurate statement among the two organisms is "<span>Both animals are detrivores, and they fill the same niche in different environments."</span>

Answer:

A) Both animals are detrivores, and they fill the same niche in different environments.

Explanation:

Niche of an organism refers to its habitat, activity role and functional position within system. Detritivores are the organisms that feed on dead and decaying organic matter and serve to release the nutrients back in the environment. Since both shrimp and cockroach feed on dead and decaying organic matter, both are detritivorous. Being found in different habitat, they fulfill the same niche (same functional role, that is, the role of detritivore) in different environments.

Repressors are transcription factors that bind to _____________sequences in dna
Trava [24]

Answer:

The given blank can be filled with operator.

Explanation:

The proteins that assist in turning on or turning off the function of a specific gene by getting combined with certain sections of the DNA are known as transcription factors. The transcription factors that activate the transcription of a specific gene are known as activators, while that prevents transcription and is termed as repressors.  

A repressor can be an RNA or a DNA binding protein, which prevents the articulation of genes by getting combined with the operator. A repressor, which binds with DNA prevents RNA polymerase from getting combined with the promoter, which further inhibits the transcription of the genes into mRNA.

How do ldl and hdl differ structurally and functionally?
ZanzabumX [31]

The main structural difference between LDL and HDL is their compositions. Approximately 50% of the weight of an LDL particle is cholesterol and only 25% is protein. High-density lipoprotein particles, on the other hand, consist of 20% percent cholesterol by weight and 50% protein.

Which force is the central causative agent of the cohesion-tension model of xylem transport?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
The causitive agent of the cohesion-tension model of xylem transport is transpiration. During the process of transpiration, water vapor is lost from the stomata of the leaf. To replace this water, water from adjacent cells is withdrawn. The water molecules stick together due to cohesion and are transported upwards through the stem in the form of a stream.<span />
