The correct answer is prophage. In a lysogenic infection, the viral DNA that is embedded in a host cell's DNA is called a prophage. Prophage is actually a bacteriophage genome that is being inserted into the circular bacterial DNA chromosome.
The correct option is A. Resource partitioning refers to a situation in which living organisms live together in the same environment in such a way that it is easy for them to co-exist because they are not using the same resources. In the question given above, it will be easy for the two species of squirrels to co-exist because although both are feeding on acorns, they are not feeding on acorns from the same location; one feed on the ground, the other feed on the trees.
Answer:
1Identify a research question or problem.
2Form a hypothesis.
3Gather evidence, or data, to test the hypothesis.
4Analyze the evidence.
5Decide whether the evidence supports the hypothesis.
6Draw conclusions.
7Communicate the results.
Answer:
All of these choices are correct.
Explanation:
Transposable elements or jumping genes has the ability to move from one site to another in the genome of an organism. The C value paradox indicates that the complexity of an organism doe not depend on the amount of the haploid content of DNA.
Transposable elements also correspond to the C value paradox. Their complexity can not be contributed by their amount of DNA. Their copy number can present on multiple chromosomes and their replication is controlled by the gene present on transposable element. The copy number of transposable element can increase in the next generation by copy and paste mechanism.
Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
