Phytoplankton are microscopic photosynthetic organisms that live in the surface waters of the ocean and are the start of most aquatic food chains. For a better understanding of their significance, here are three reasons why they are important.

1) They are the most important primary producers in the Earth's ocean.

2) They produce most of the oxygen in our atmosphere.

3) They help to regulate global carbon balance.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day, as well as a safe one! Also, hope your having a good 2020 :-)

A particular triplet of bases in the template strand of DNA is 5' AGT 3'. The corresponding codon for the mRNA transcribed is __
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3' UCA 5'

Explanation:

The rule of pairing of base-pair says that A and T base pairs with each other with two hydrogen bonds and G and C base pairs with each other with three hydrogen bonds in DNA. In the case of RNA Uracil comes at the place of thymine that means uracil replaces thymine.

Therefore according to this base-pairing rule the corresponding codon of mRNA transcribes from DNA codon 5' AGT 3' will be 3' UCA 5' as U came in place of A nucleotide, C comes in place of G nucleotide, and A comes in place of T nucleotide.  

Therefore the correct answer is 3' UCA 5'.

Please HELP!! Place the events 1 to 7 in order of how they happen during speciation.
hoa [83]

Answer:

6, 3, 4, 5, 7, 2, 1

Explanation:

Here, speciation occurs because the original butterfly population gets separated into two populations, each facing a different set of environmental conditions. Initially, there was just a single population of butterflies in the valley and all butterflies were able to mate with each other. A fire destroyed their habitat so they had to migrate to other areas. Some butterflies migrated to eastern side of mountain and some to western side of mountain.

Now there were two butterfly populations and they faced different environment from each other. Over the time, the populations adapted to their local surroundings and started to accumulate changes in their genome. Their gene pools started to separate from each other. Eventually they evolved into two different species. When their old habitat was restored in the valley, they returned once again. However, this time they were not able to interbreed because they were now two different species.
