How does predation alter a population’s gene pool?
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

If we consider Darwin's theory we would realize that the species which are not able to survive are unfit or weak. Thus, predators usually attack species that can be easily targeted. Hence, it this way predation leads to selective pressure on any species and hence leads to creation of a fit gene pool. The weak organisms are removed and more fit organism could mate among themselves to produce healthy offspring.  

 Hence, option C is correct

Titanium, a very strong and durable mineral, is used in making bikes, automobile parts, and sports equipment.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Titanium is a strong, light  metal. It is as strong as steel and twice as strong as aluminum but 45% lighter than steel and highly resistant to corrosion.  It is used in making alloys and is mostly added to steel because it increases the strength and resistance to corrosion of steel.

 Titanium - steel alloys are particularly useful in spacecraft and aircraft applications which account for about 65% of all Titanium sold. These alloys find a host of other applications  such as in manufacture of jewelry, bicycles, golf clubs, various sports equipment and also in the medical field as artificial hips, knees and specialized dental implants.

Briefly describe how the experiments of Avery, McCarthy, and MacLeod, building on the work of Griffith?
satela [25.4K]
The Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment<span> was an experimental demonstration, reported in 1944 by </span>Oswald Avery<span>, </span>Colin MacLeod<span>, and </span>Maclyn McCarty<span>, that </span>DNA<span> is the substance that causes </span>bacterial transformation<span>, in an era when it had been widely believed that it was </span>proteins<span> that served the function of carrying genetic information (with the very word </span>protein<span> itself coined to indicate a belief that its function was </span>primary<span>).

It was the culmination of research in the 1930s and early 20th Century at the </span>Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research<span> to purify and characterize the "transforming principle" responsible for the transformation phenomenon first described in </span>Griffith's experiment<span> of 1928: killed </span>Streptococcus pneumoniae<span> of the </span>virulent<span> strain type III-S, when injected along with living but non-virulent type II-R pneumococci, resulted in a deadly infection of type III-S pneumococci.

In their paper "</span>Studies on the Chemical Nature of the Substance Inducing Transformation of Pneumococcal Types: Induction of Transformation by a Desoxyribonucleic Acid Fraction Isolated from Pneumococcus Type III<span>", published in the February 1944 issue of the </span>Journal of Experimental Medicine<span>, Avery and his colleagues suggest that DNA, rather than protein as widely believed at the time, may be the hereditary material of bacteria, and could be analogous to </span>genes<span> and/or </span>viruses<span> in higher organisms.</span>

The coyote will become the apex predator and
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

No, coyote will not become the apex predator.

Explanation:

No, coyote will not become the apex predator but greatly reduces the populations of foxes in order to reduce competition for available resources. Yes, The coyote population will decreases because t he gray wolf kills coyote to avoid competition for food resources. If another wolf is introduced to fit the same ni che, the coyote population will decrease because the wolf feeds on coyote. As the number of coyotes increase, the number of beavers will decrease because coyote feeds on beaver. If the gray wolf became extinct,  the coyote population increases in that location due to no predator.
