Answer: D. They can outcompete native species.

Exotic species are the species which are not native to the region to which they are introduced. They can be referred as alien, non indegenous species. These species are introduced either due to human intervention in order to use these species for their own benefit or these species migrate from their native land in search of food and other resources. These species may act as an invasive species, which means they compete with the native population for resources. Therefore, they will disturb the natural biodiversity of the ecosystem.

Hence, exotic species when introduced in an ecosystem they can outcompete native species.

The synthesis of nucleotides requires several amino acids. Sort each amino acid as a precursor in the synthesis of purines, pyri
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Glycine is required for purines, aspartate for pyrimidines, glycine and aspartate for both purines and pyrimidines. The remaining amino acids are not required for the synthesis.

Explanation:

Nucleotides are the monomer for the synthesis of DNA and RNA. The two main class of nitrogenous bases are purines and pyrimidines. These nitrogenous bases require the amino acids as a precursor for their synthesis.

Glycine is the simplest amino acid and required for the synthesis of purines. Aspartate is required for the synthesis of pyrimidines. Glutamine and aspartate are required for the synthesis of both purines and pyrimidines. Lysine, leucine, alanine, histidine, methionine, tryptophan and alanine are not used as a precursor for the nucleotides.

Data was collected concerning Galapagos bird beak size over time. There are several species finches, and they are also known as
astra-53 [7]

Finches adapt to the new conditions such as drought by changing the size, shape and depth of their beaks. Beak morphology varies according to drought conditions. Since after the drought, vegetation dries out and the hard, big, tough seeds remain, only the finches with deep beaks will survive. Finches adapt via their beaks to different foods sources and different local conditions.

What is responsible for termination of transcription in eukaryotic protein-coding genes?
kupik [55]

Answer:

<h2>A polyadenylation signal or poly(A) </h2>

Explanation:

Termination. In eukaryotes, transcription is terminated differently for the all 3 different RNA polymerases. Transcription is terminated by two elements: i) a poly(A) signal and ii) a downstream terminator sequence.

In eukaryotic protein-encoding genes, the cleavage site in the RNA occurs between an upstream( the sequence before the cleavage site) AAUAAA  and a downstream GU-rich, separated by approx 40-60 nucleotides. After they both have been transcribed, a protein knows as CPSF  and another protein called CstF( in humans)  helps in termination.
