Answer:

If the string of beads refer to a chromosome, then each bead is a gene responsible for one or more traits.

If the string of beads refer to a gene, then each bead refers to the sequence of nitrogenous bases in one strand of the gene.

Explanation:

A chromosome is composed of several genes.

A gene is composed of several nucleotides each containing a nitrogenous base. A gene is primarily made functional by the sequence of nitrogenous bases in its structure. If AGATTCA is a hypothetical sequence of the nitrogenous bases on one strand of a hypothetical gene then TCTAAGT will be the sequence of nitrogenous bases on the complementary strand of that particular gene.

Can humans live underwater what are some things to consider
timurjin [86]

Underwater living faces many of the same life support challenges as living in space. ... But in the future, underwater habitats might provide their own oxygen with artificial gill technology to extract dissolved air from the sea water

Since humans do not have gills, we cannot extract oxygen from water. Some marine mammals, like whales and dolphins, do live in water, but they don't breathe it. They have developed a mechanism to hold their breath for long periods of time underwater.

To put these depths into perspective, three American football fields laid end to end would measure 900 feet (274.32 m) long — less than the distance these divers reached underwater. Most recreational scuba divers only dive as deep as 130 feet (40 meters), according to the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.

How do bacteria enable a baby to extract nutrition from the mother's milk?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Lots of bacteria are present as the microflora of a baby's gut which helps it to extract the nutrition from mother's milk and also helps the baby to maintain a low number of pathogenic bacteria in its gut.

Some bacteria present in the baby gut release enzymes like glycoside hydrolase which helps baby to digest carbohydrate present in the mother's milk.  

Bacteria like Bifidobacterium, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus are already present in breast milk which helps in making gut microflora of baby and this gut microflora helps in extracting nutrients from mother's milk.
