Is the benefit gained by each individual in a mutualistic relationship equal?

Biology
1 answer:
arsen [322]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It is not necessary that both partners get equal benefits from each other.

Explanation:

Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship between two individuals. In mutualism both the partners get benefitted from each other but it is not necessary that both get equal benefits from each other.

Every mutualistic relationship is different and in all mutualistic relationships, altruistic behavior is not seen by any partner species. Each partner is selfish and help the other partner unintentionally in mutualism. So it is not necessary that each partner gain equal benefit in this relationship.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Animal ; prokaryote ; plant ; virus

Explanation:

Animal:  An animal cell possesses cell membrane, ribosomes, lysosomes and nuclear membrane.

Prokaryote:  In a prokaryotic cell, cell wall is present  such as bacteria, ribosomes are present  but nuclear membrane is absent

Plant: A plant cell possesses cell wall, ribosomes, nucleus and a large vacuole.  

Virus:  Viruses reproduces inside a cell  because they do not have their own energy producing system, nucleus is absent  but nucleic acid ( DNA or RNA) is present

Know what makes a solution acidic or basic (the pH number and the ions).
Brrunno [24]

To determine whether an acidic or basic solution, it is first necessary to compare the concentrations of the hydronium (H3O +) and hydroxide (OH-) ions in the solution.

In acidic solution, the concentration of H3O + ions is higher than that of OH- ions.

  • In acidic solution, the concentration of H3O + ions is higher than that of OH- ions. Such a solution can be achieved by adding a small part of the H3O + ions, for example. Acid solutions have a pH below 7, the further away from 7 the pH of the solution is the higher its acidity content.  According to Le Chatelier's principle, when a disturbance is caused to an equilibrium system, it tends to readjust in order to diminish the effects of that force. This means that if an acid is added to water, the H3O + ions will be in excess and the equilibrium will shift in the opposite direction to the left. Then these excess ions will react with the OH- ions. Thus, the concentration of OH- ions will decrease and the solution will become acidic.
  • In basic solutions, the concentration of OH- ions is higher than that of H3O + ions.  If we add a base to the water, it means that we will be adding OH- ions and, as explained in the previous section, by Le Chatelier's principle, the equilibrium of the water selfionization reaction will shift in the opposite direction, and the excess ions will react. with the H3O + ions, decreasing their concentration and making the basic solution.  Basic solutions have a pH greater than 7, the farther from 7 and closer to 14 the pH of the solution, the higher the basification content.

A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white co
Rina8888 [55]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?

a) Incomplete dominance

b) Genetic recombination

c) Chimerism

d) Codominance

Answer:

d) codominance

Explanation:

Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.

Predict the most likely outcome of culturing transformed E. coli in the presence of tetracycline.Justify your prediction.
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

E.coli is a bacterium which is preffered for transformation due to its rapid growth and high efficiency of introduction of DNA molecules into cells.

Tetracycline is an antibiotic used to treat several infections such as cholera, plague, brucellosis, and malaria etcetra.

Plasmid is a small, extrachromosomal DNA molecule present in cell which is seprated from chromosomal DNA and have ability to replicate independently.

When a plasmid resistant to tetracycline and kanamycine is inserted into E.coli, the process is called transformation. E.coli might not be able to survive due to absence of plasmid but the transformed strains having antibiotic tetracycline and kanamycine will probably be able to survive it.

Hence, the culture of bacteria carrying plasmid will be able to survive only.
