In an experiment, DNA from dead pathogenic bacteria was transferred into living bacteria that do not cause disease. These altere

d bacteria were then injected into healthy mice. These mice died of the same disease caused by the original pathogens. Based on this information, which statement would be a valid conclusion?
(1) DNA is present only in living organisms.
(2) DNA functions only in the original organism of which it was a part.
(3) DNA changes the organism receiving the injection into the original organism.
(4) DNA from a dead organism can become active in another organism.

Answer:

Option D,  DNA from a dead organism can become active in another organism

Explanation:

It has been established by a famous researcher Soren Overballe-Petersen that some parts of our body never die. This is because the even though the organisms die, its genetic components such as DNA or part of it remain active and if these are fed into any culture , they are adopted by the genomes of the cells in the culture.

Hence, option D is correct

In what pattern does the flow of energy in the ecosystem take place
Aliun [14]
The pattern of the flow of energy in the ecosystem take place in an unidirectional pattern. In the ecosystem, unidirectional pattern of energy flow should be present, following the law of thermodynamics which states that the amount of energy in the universe is constant. It cannot be created or destroyed, however, it may be changed into another form of energy. Example: chemical to heat. The law also says that without degradation into heat energy, non-random energies like mechanical, chemical or radiant energy cannot be changed.

Please help! I really appreciate it.

Hello!

The answer to 36: Only 10% of energy transfers from one level of the pyramid to the next.

37: The reason only this much energy is transferred is because the other amount of energy is released as heat or used by the organism(s) in each level.

38:This energy is released as heat as the organism performs daily life functions like eating, scouring, and simply moving around.

39: When autotrophs take in nutrients from the earth, they take in carbon and energy. These are either eaten by another organism or die and enrich the ground. The ones that are eaten by other organisms transfer energy to the organism they are consumed by. Wastes and other deposits back time earth keep the cycle going.

I hope this is accurate and helpful! :)
