1. natural selection acts on existing traits because you can not evolve into something you didn't have
2. original structures evolve to accomplish new function in order to survive
Electrons are the smallest of the three particles that make up atoms.
Please correct me if I'm wrong!! I'd be happy to fix it!! :)
Nematodes are wormlike organisms which can be seen with naked eye, live in water-filled pore spaces in the soil. Nematodes are in large number in the upper soil layers where organic matter, plant roots, and other resources are most abundant.
The functions of nematodes:
- Free-living nematodes decompose organic material into nutrients and cycled them in the soil by feeding on some bacteria and fungi.
- Nematodes help in distributing bacteria and fungi through the soil and along roots by carrying live and dormant microbes.
- They used as food for higher predators, soil microorthropodes.
- They eat disease-causing organisms, thus suppress their growth.
- They acts as potential bio- control agents.
Any genetically engineered organisms is referred to as a transgenic organism.
A transgenic organism is any organism that was modified genetically or engineered by humans, for certain purposes, in this case, the function of the thale cress is to break down toxic metals in the water (cress plants grow on water).
Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
