Biology
1 answer:
raketka [301]3 years ago
4 0

Answer

The main reason being the amount of food available.

Explanation:

Think of it this way:

If an animal is trying to find food but another species is looking for the same prey then its going to be increasingly difficult for the species to find prey and if there's not enough of the prey species then the population of the predator to go down.

That is why its considered a limiting factor.

Which of the following statements about excision repair is correct?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

a. True, b. False, c.True, d. True

Explanation:

a. Base excision repair is started by a DNA glycosylase  that recognizes the changes and removes the altered base by cleavage of the glycosidic bond binding the base and the deoxyribose sugar together.

b. Nucleotide excision repair works by a cut-and patch mechanism that removes their heavy lesions, including pyrimidine dimers and nucleotides . Endonucleases are responsible for the lesion of the damaged strand.

c. Nucleotide excision repair  is initiated by the proteins namely UvrA, UvrC, and UvrB in Escherichia coli.

-UvrD (helicase II) later removes the damaged strand

-DNA polymerase I (PolI) fills in the resulting gap.

d. DNA glycolases removes the damaged nitrogenous base.

-It leaves the sugar-phosphate backbone intact and thus creating an  apurinic/apyrimidinic site, which is commonly referred to as an AP site.

e. Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A(XPA)

-This is an essential protein in the nucleotide excision repair pathway.

- It helps to make a pre-incision complex along with other proteins.

In pea plants , yellow pod color is recessive and green pod color is dominant . A heterozygous dominant for that trait . What pe
almond37 [142]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

In pea plants, yellow pod color is recessive and green pod color is dominant. A heterozygous plant produced offspring with a plant that is homozygous dominant for the trait. What is a percent chance that the pea plant will have green pods.

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele "G" gives green pod color while the allele "g" imparts yellow color to the pods. The genotype of the heterozygous plant would be "Gg". A cross between heterozygous green plant (Gg) with homozygous dominant (GG) plant would produce progeny in following ratio=

Gg x GG= 1/2 GG (green): 1/2 Gg (green)

Therefore, there are 100% chances that the progeny plant will have green pods.
