Answer: The colonies would have less genetic variation.

Explanation:

Bacterial Conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between the bacterial cell when they come in direct contact to each other.

Thy build a bridge like connection in between two cell from where the genetic material is exchanged between them.

If there will be no exchange of genetic material then there are very less chances of genetic variation.

Gene expression might be altered at the level of post-transcriptional processing in eukaryotes rather than prokaryotes because o
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

<h2>As transcription and translation occurs in different location in eukaryotes, while in prokaryotes, both the processes occurs at same location,  post-transcriptional processing in eukaryotes. </h2>

Explanation:

The transcription and translation occurs in different location in eukaryotes, while in prokaryotes, both the processes occurs at same location and can be co-translation.

As, in eukaryotes, the transcription occurs in the nucleus and then this transcript have to move in the cytoplasm to translation, so before reaching in the cytoplasm, various modifications occur in this transcript known as post transcriptional modification or processing ( include 5' capping, 3' poly-adenylation and RNA splicing).

As, in prokaryotes, both transcription and translation occur at same place so there is no time for modification for transcript because translation starts as the transcription is still going on.

Which of the following statements about a prokaryotic cell is NOT true?
Gemiola [76]

The right option is; A. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus

''Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus'' is the statement about prokaryotic cells that is NOT true.

Prokaryotic cells are cells that lack a true nucleus and some other cell organelles. Prokaryotic cells are found in unicellular organisms called prokaryotes. Examples of prokaryotes are; Bacteria and Archaea. The components of prokaryotic cells include plasma membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, nucleoid, ribosomes, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Most of the prokaryotic’s DNA (genetic material) is located in a middle area of the cell (nucleoid), and it contains a single large loop known as a circular chromosome.

List and describe two characteristics of all living things
Mice21 [21]

Hello User,

All living organisms share several key characteristics or functions: order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing. When viewed together, these characteristics serve to define life.

  • Living things are made of cells. Cells are the basic building blocks of living things
  • Living things have movement. This movement can be quick or very slow.
  • All living things have a metabolism
  • Living things grow
  • Response to environment.
  • Reproduction.
