Answer:
It reduces loss of water.
Explanation:
The answer is simple as a plant such as cactus are found in deserts and as you know desert is a dry land of sand. So to survive a cactus has an anatomical and behavioural adaptation of absorbing and storing water, and one of them is preventing of loss of water.
Chromosomes are pieces of tightly packed DNA that prove useful in copying DNA for mitosis.
Hope this helps :)
The answers are:
A. DNA replication in the nucleus of a cell
B. From one helix of DNA in a replication process, we get two: The DNA is a double helix and it consists of two strands of specifically connected amino-acids. When the time for replication comes, a set of enzymes unwind the two strands and leave them as a base for additional two strands attaching to them - the green line is an example of that. The free nucleotides - adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine are left open and the enzyme called DNA-polymerase helps to produce a new strand on the template of the old parental one (one of the blue ones in the picture)
C. By the location on the smaller picture - replication takes place in the nucleus. And the most important hint are the letters A - adenine, G - guanine, T- thymine, and C-cytosine. A connects with T, and G connects with C.
populations were prevented from interbreeding by geographic isolation
I believe the correct answer is natural selection.
Natural competition and the fight for “survival of the fittest” is what pushes diversity the most.
