Answer:

base pair deletion

Explanation:

<em>The type of mutation that occurred would be base pair deletion.</em>

Base pair deletion mutation is a type of mutation involving the deletion of one or more nucleotide bases from a DNA/gene. This causes a reduction in the base pairs and shortens the length of the DNA/gene

<u>For example, if the first codon of a gene with base sequence 'AGGGCTACG' is deleted, the gene becomes shortened with a new base sequence of 'GCTACG'. Thus, the mutated gene would have a shorter base pair when compared to its wild-type counterpart.</u>

Answer:

The result of loss of topsoil are loss in fertility of soil, loss of water, crop production and hardened soil surface. Therefore, the correct answer to the above question is option A, B, C and D.  

Explanation:

When there is a loss of top layer of soil from the earth by any means, natural or artificial, it is known as soil erosion. The soil from one place gets detached and is transported to another area. Planting more and more trees is the one of the way to stop soil erosion as the roots of the plants hold the soil.  

When the soil from area is removed there is a loss of production in crop due to various reasons. The most fertile part of the soil occurs in the uppermost part.  Therefore, its removal has negative impact.

The total number of organisms an ecosystem can support is its tolerance range. True or false
Monica [59]

Answer;

The above statement is false

The total number of organisms an ecosystem can support is its carrying capacity.

Explanation;

-Carrying capacity is the average population density or population size of a species below which its numbers tend to increase and above which its numbers tend to decrease because of shortages of resources.

-For a given region, carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals of a given species that an area's resources can sustain indefinitely without significantly depleting or degrading those resources.

The carrying capacity is different for each species. in a habitat because of that species’ particular food, shelter, and social requirements.
