Answer:

Because they don't have a nucleus which houses DNA and no RNA. These are require to repair cells whenever damage is done. Since these are absent, the cell can only survive 120 days if minimal injuries.

Given that the dna molecules all have similar charge to mass ratios, what property do you think is most important in determining
prisoha [69]

The answer is size. The larger the DNA molecule the slower it travels through the gel.  This is because of the restriction of their movement through the pores of the gel. The smaller DNA molecules travel furthest. The size of the pores can be varied through by changing the mixture ratios of the agarose gel.

Small, isolated populations of collared lizards remain in glades of desert-like habitat scattered throughout the oak-hickory for
dusya [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Options

A. most populations were fixed for a single genotype, but genotypes varied among populations

B. average heterozygosity was declining steadily over time

C. individual populations were polymorphic for several loci and most populations were genetically similar to one another

D. all populations were fixed for the same allele at each locus studied

Solution

As per the study conducted by Templeton, it was found that human affect the biodiversity at all biological levels such as genetic, ecosystem, species etc. and behind genetic variation two important factors are genetic drift and gene flow.  

Both the gene flow and genetic drift produce opposite results as genetic drift increase variation with in the species but decrease variation with in the local population and the opposite of this happens in gene flow.  

Genetic drift has actually lead to speciation of collared lizards  among themselves for a specific genotype

Hence, option A is correct
