Biology
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago

Answer:

They use a gene modification technique called CRIPSR-CAS9. The pigs have been given a gene that allows them to better regulate their own body temperature, whereby they burn fat, or at which animals consume their own fat.

Explanation:

British and Chinese scientists explained that they conducted the study by adding a mouse version of the UCP1 gene used for porcine embryos, which is used to regulate body temperature characteristic of most mammals, but not ordinary pigs.

It is problematic for pigs to maintain a stable body temperature, and this is especially complicated in pigs that are cold in the winter months because they have not been able to "store" fat.

Inserting the UCP2 gene could solve this problem.

Match each of Darwin's ideas to the earlier scientist whose work helped Darwin develop the idea.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Lamarck:

The inheritable traits of species may change over time.

Malthus:

In every species in nature, some individuals survive while may others die.

Hutton, Lyell:

The environment of organisms may change over time.

Explanation:

Darwin's revolutionary ideas were influenced by a number of scientists and thinkers of the time:

Jean Baptiste Lamarck:

A botanist and zoologist, Lamarck, for, the first time, proposed the idea of evolutionary changes or adaptations in organisms in response to changes in the environment. He introduced the concept of inheritance of acquired characters.

Thomas Malthus:

Thomas Malthus was not a biologist, but an economist who proposed the ideas that at the rate of the current population growth, human population would eventually suffer from famine and starvation.This would lead to the deaths of the weakest of the population. This idea inspired Darwin to formulate the idea of "the survival of the fittest".

Charles Lyell and James Hutton:

Charles Lyell and James Hutton were famous geologists who greatly influenced Darwin with their theories about the beginning and evolution of the Earth. Charles Lyell proposed that the present state of the Earth was a result of small, gradual changes. James Hutton theorized that the processes that too place at the beginning of the Earth were still in progress.

Lyell and Hutton's work paved the way for the formulation of the theory of natural selection.

Some inbred strains of the weedy plant Arabidopsis thaliana flower early in the growing season, but other strains flower at late
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a. Let us consider that L is responsible for late and l is responsible for early. From the mentioned data, it can be concluded that allele L or late is dominant over early. By crossing plants 1 and 4 we get the expected ratio of 3: 1, which shows that it follows Mendel's law of dominant.  

b. The genotype of all the four plants are:  

1st plant = Ll

2nd plant = ll

3rd plant = LL

4th plant = Ll

c. If the plant 1 is self-fertilized then the expected progeny will be 3 (late): 1 (early).  

In case if the 2nd plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be only early.  

In case if the 3rd plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be only late.  

In case if the 4th plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be 3 (late): 1 (early).

What are the products of aerobic respiration?
bixtya [17]
I am confused as to what your question is specifically asking but the chemical formula for aerobic respiration is:

Oxygen + Glucose --------> Carbon Dioxide + Water
O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ --------> CO₂ + H₂O

Hopefully this will aid you in answering your question :)
