Answer:The nucleus is damaged.

Explanation:

The nucleus is supposed to keep genetic material (DNA) housed within its membrane-bound structure, but in this cell, the genetic material is openly floating around the cell's cytosol.

Most, maybe all, bacteria have their genome DNA tethered to their cell membranes, so it is in the cytoplasm but its not really floating around. Plasmids in bacteria however are free floating. This is why it's so easy to isolate plasmids from bacteria with centrifugation after lysing.

Julli [10]

Answer:

Speciation was allopatric or peripatric, but would depend on the number of individuals that dispersed from the original populations.

Explanation:

  • There are two types of speciation: allopatric and peripatric.
  • Allopatric speciation occurs when the species of same population gets isolated that results in lack of gene flow.
  • From the isolated population, new species are formed then it is known as the peripatric speciation.
  • All these isolation of populations and formation of new species depends upon the initial or original group of species that was dispersed.

Which of the following best explains a characteristic that differentiates Fungi from Plants?
NikAS [45]
<span>The answer is C because fungi use decomposition to get nutrition, while plants produce their own nutrients, making them autotrophs. Answer choice A is incorrect because fungi cells do have cell walls, even though they contain chitin, which isn't present in the cell walls of plants. Answer choice B is incorrect because while they do form colonies, most fungi are multicellular. Answer choice D is incorrect because plants are also able to reproduce both sexually and asexually.</span>

Oliga [24]

Answer:

A. They were part of the control group

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, the CONTROL GROUP as opposed to the experimental group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment. This acts as a standard for comparison.

In this question, the EXPERIMENTAL VACCINE is the experimental treatment or independent variable that was added. The five animal test subjects that was injected with this vaccine are called the EXPERIMENTAL GROUP while the other five test subjects that were rather injected with a PLACEBO are called CONTROL GROUPS.

DNA ___________ is important because it ensures that when a cell divides, the two resulting cells have the same genetic code. Pl
slega [8]

Answer: Replication

Explanation: When the cell is preparing to divide it will <u>replicate</u> its DNA so that both of the daughter cells will have a complete set of the DNA. It's like a book of instructions and the cell has to perfectly replicate it so that when it splits into two both of the new cells will have a perfectly made copy of it! Hope this helps :)
