b. Clarity of Water.

Explanation:

  • The vertical migration of <em>Daphnia sp.</em> is their characteristic behaviour.
  • These organisms migrate to the surface of the water body during night and remain at the bottom during the day.
  • Behaviorists believe that <em>Daphnia sp. </em>does this to avoid predation.
  • During the day, it remains at the bottom that lacks light and avoids being noticed by the fishes. But at night when the day light is absent it swims up to feed upon the algae present in the clear surface water.
  • Thus we can conclude <em>Daphnia</em> population is responding to the clarity of water.

Which structure of the nephron reabsorbs the most substances?
omeli [17]

Answer:

Proximal convoluted tubule

Explanation:

The major work of re-absorption is carried out in nephron by the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). The PCT re-absorbs all the essential nutrients such as amino acid, potassium, glucose etc. and water driven by passive transfer based on concentration gradient. Along with gradient, pH of the urine also affects the re-absorption. Based on the pH of the urine (basic or acid), re-absorption of ionized acid increases or decreases.

Because there are three different possible reading frames in a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule, most mRNAs can be translated in a
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In the genetic code, each triplet of nucleotides (i.e., each codon) determines one specific amino acid or one-stop codon. The genetic code is not overlapping, which means that the same letter in the genetic code (nucleotide) cannot be used for two different codons. There are 64 possible combinations of triplets of nucleotides, 61 of them determine amino acids, while three triplets determine stop codons (UAG, UAA, and UGA) that indicate the termination of translation. Moreover, the genetic code is also degenerate, which means that one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon.
