6 0

The correct answer is: 2.5%

The vast majority of the human genome (97.5%) is comprised of non-coding DNA with different functions. Non-coding DNA includes telomeres, introns, non-coding RNA genes and gene regulatory sequences.

• Telomeres-ends of DNA with protective role (prevents shortening of DNA),

• Non-coding RNA genes-e.g. genes for tRNA,

• Gene regulatory sequences such as promoter, enhancers and silencers.

Vesna [10]

Austin who was securely attached in Mary Ainsworth's theory of mother-infant attachment likely showed confidence in his caregiver's ability to protect him.

Options to this question were not provided. However, it is worthy to note that Mary Ainsworth's theory of mother-infant attachment classifies the relationship that children have with their caregivers as; Secure, Resistant, and Avoidant.

The Securely attached children are distressed when their mother is absent, they avoid strangers when their mother is not around but become friendly to strangers when their mothers are present.

They are also happy when their mother is around.

If a population is steady at its carrying capacity, but then a group of organisms from that species moves in to the same space o
baherus [9]

Answer:

It will remain relatively stable

Explanation:

<u>The carrying capacity (k) of an environment is a factor that represents the maximum number of organisms of a particular species such environment can support based on the resources it has. </u>

<em>Below the carrying capacity</em>, the population of a species still has the potential to increase due to resource availability, and <em>above the carrying capacity</em>, the population has the potential to reduce due to the overstretching of the available resources. Factors that keep the population from expanding significantly beyond the carrying capacity include competition for resources, natural disasters, disease outbreaks, etc.

<em>Hence, if a population is steady at its carrying capacity and a group of organisms from that species moves into the same space occupied by the original population, the carrying capacity will only increase temporarily before factors such as competition and natural disasters operate to bring the carrying capacity to the normal level. </em>
