Answer:
D. Any or all of the above could be causing the problem.
Explanation:
Pollution has been said to have adverse effect on living organisms. In this question, a decrease in number of intertidal organisms has been observed. Since a major freeway runs along a stretch of the ocean shore, the most likely cause of the death of the intertidal organisms is the release of any form of toxic waste into the water body.
Oil pollutants causes death of living organisms by hindering the entrance of oxygen into the water body. It makes it difficult for oxygen, which is a requirement for life, to penetrate the water body. Hence, living organisms in the water body will suffocate and die.
Toxic wastes also causes the death of organisms when ingested in excess. Waste water causes deterioration in the oxygen content of the water body. Hence, any or all of the above options can likely cause the reduction in number of the intertidal organisms.
Answer:
List of options to choose from to complete the question:
A. Aneuploidy
B. Polyploidy
C. Translocation
D. Monosomy
E. Duplication
The CORRECT ANSWER IS A.
A. Aneuploidy.
Explanation:
Aneuploidy results from unusual number of chromosomes in a cell, e.g a human cell with 45 or 47 chromosomes other than 46.
It's mostly seen in Trisomy e.g. trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) and trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome).
Epigenetic is the study in the field of genetics of cellular and physiological phenotypic trait variations that are caused by external or environmental factors that switch genes on and of and affects how cells read genes instead of being caused by changes in the DNA sequence. Therefore, hence epigenetic research seeks to describe dynamic alterations in the transcriptional potential of a cell.
Hope this helps you!
Chloroplast is a cell organelle and the site of photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. Hence they are present in plant cells and algae, but not in animal cells or bacteria cells.
