Beetle pollinators of a particular plant are attracted to its flowers' bright orange color. The beetles not only pollinate the f

lowers but mate while inside of the flowers. A mutant version of the plant with red flowers becomes more common with the passage of time. A particular variant of the beetle prefers the red flowers to the orange flowers. Over time, these two beetle variants diverge from each other to such an extent that interbreeding is no longer possible. What kind of speciation has occurred in this example, and what has driven it?
A. Allopatric speciation, ecological isolation.
B. Sympatric speciation, habitat differentiation.
C. Allopatric speciation, behavioral isolation.
D. Sympatric speciation, sexual selection.
E. Sympatric speciation, allopolyploidy.

Answer:

B. Sympatric speciation, habitat differentiation.

Explanation:

The right answer to our question is B, Sympatric speciation, habitat differentiation.

Edward Bagnall Poulton derived the term sympatric speciation in 1904. It is a mode of speciation, which entails new species emerging from an ancestral species that is still alive and extant. Both the emerging and ancestral species will exist in the same zone.

This speciation is found more in plants. There are different types of these speciations. Habitat differentiation is seen within sympatric speciation. It is found when mutations that exist in the same zone can make use of varying conditions. Allopatric speciation and parapatric speciation are the other types of speciation.

Answer:

DNA Replication:

Replicate the following strand of DNA:

Original DNA: A T G A A C CA T T C A G T A T G G

Complementary DNA:

Remember that the complimentary base pairs in DNA are Adenine-Thymine and Guanine-Cytosine, or A-T and G-C. This means that if the original sequence is:

A T G A A C C A T T C A G T A T G G

Then the compliment is (replace with the opposite base pairs):

T A C T T G G T A A G T C A T A C C

Transcription:

Transcribe the DNA to make an mRNA molecule

COMPLIMENTARY DNA:

mRNA Molecule:

So if our complimentary DNA (antisense stand) is T A C T T G G T A A G T C A T A C C then to transcribe, we basically create another complimentary strand, but for mRNA, we use Uracil instead of Thymine:

A U G A A C C A U U C A G U A U G G  

Translation:

Translate the mRNA into the corresponding amino acids.

mRNA MOLECULE:

AMINO ACID:

Using the DNA sequence provided, determine the amino acids.

Next, take each codon (3-base set) to the table and record the corresponding protein:

A U G = Methionine (start)

A A C = Asparagine

C A U = Histidine

U C A = Serine

G U A = Valine

U G G = Tryptophan

ORIGINAL DNA: A T G G G T C T A G C G A A A G A T

Complementary DNA:

mRNA DNA Molecule:

Amino Acid:

And we do it all again:

A T G G G T C T A G C G A A A G A T = original DNA

T A C C C A G A T C G C T T T C T A = complementry DNA

A U G G G U C U A G C G A A A G A U = mRNA

A U G = Methionine (start)

G G U = Glysine

C U A = Leucine

G C G = Alanine

A A A = Lysine

G A U = Aspartate

A given ecosystem has the following amounts of energy available at each trophic level: Primary producers: 4,000 gC/m2/day; Prima
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

b. Yes, the average efficiency is 10%

Explanation:

The average efficiency at each trophic level is 10% because there is about 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to another. In some trophic levels the efficiency of organisms is 20% but in most of the trophic level has 10% efficiency so that's why the average efficiency is 10%. Yes, this ecosystem  obeys the Lindeman's Law for ecological efficiency due to its 10% of ecological efficiency.
