Explain reproduction as attribute of Living Organism(long answer type question)​

Biology

Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago

Explanation:

Reproduction (or procreation or breeding) is the biological process by which new individual organisms – "offspring" – are produced from their "parents". Reproduction is a fundamental feature of all known life; each individual organism exists as the result of reproduction. There are two forms of reproduction: asexual and sexual.

In asexual reproduction, an organism can reproduce without the involvement of another organism. Asexual reproduction is not limited to single-celled organisms. The cloning of an organism is a form of asexual reproduction. By asexual reproduction, an organism creates a genetically similar or identical copy of itself. The evolution of sexual reproduction is a major puzzle for biologists. The two-fold cost of sexual reproduction is that only 50% of organisms reproduce[1] and organisms only pass on 50% of their genes.[2]

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The mice died

Explanation:

In Griffith's experiment, two strains of the same bacteria were used. S strain was smooth because it had a polysaccharide coat. This coat also made it virulent because mouse immune system was not able to destroy it and ultimately the mice died. R strain was rough because it did not have the coat and thus was harmless to mice.

When Griffith injected mice with dead S bacteria and living R bacteria together, the mice died. Live R bacteria had taken up the genetic material or as Griffith called "transforming principle" from the dead S bacteria and transformed into S bacteria. So live S bacteria were present again and they killed the mice.

Which part of thr mitochondrion does an electron transport chain occur?​
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Electron transport chain is the series of the cycle of the transfer of electrons from the one complex to other complex of the cycle. Both oxidation and redo reaction occurs in the electron transport chain.

The process of electron transport chain occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane. All the complexes and the substrate of the cycle are embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. ATP is produced by this cycle located in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
