Acids and bases are important in living things because most enzymes can do their job only at a certain level of acidity. Cells secrete acids and bases to maintain the proper pH for enzymes to work. For example, every time you digest food, acids and bases are at work in your digestive system.

It helps in the production of genetically modified crops that produce crops with desired characteristics.

Gene therapy is used for the diagnoses of diseases like cancer and Parkinson’s disease.

Genetic testing is another technique that is used to diagnose any genetic diseases in theparents.

The correct answer is D. species.


The definition of a species is termed as a group of interbreeding individuals cannot be easily applied to organisms that they reproduce only or mainly by asexual methods.

A population of mussels was observed in a particular ecosystem. Crabs have recently been observed occupying this ecosystem, whic
Zina [86]

Mussels are molluscans and are freshwater animals. The change in the environment led to new traits of mussels, it underwent natural selection and the thick shells have high chances of survival.

<h3>What is natural selection?</h3>

Natural selection is a process of nature that eliminates the organism with less survival and unfit traits while selecting the organisms with better traits of survival in the altered conditions.

The arrival or the introduction of the crabs in the environment altered the previous habitat of the mussels and led to the adaptation of the better trait quality in the mussel species.

The trait of the thick shells underwent natural selection as they were favoured for the changed conditions. The mussel having thick shells have high chances of survival over thin-shelled mussels as the crab will find it hard to attack the thick-shelled mussels.

Therefore, option A. change in environment, option B. natural selection and option E. chances of survival are the correct statements.

seeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants which explanation best explains this phenomenon?​
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below

eeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants. Which explanation best explains this phenomenon?

(a)The roots change into branches, and the branches turn into roots.

(b)The roots grow toward the force of gravity, and the shoots grow away.

(c)The plant will become a smaller version of a mature plant.

(d)Roots always grow toward the dark, and shoots grow toward the light.

Two options appear to be correct here: options B and D

Explanation:

Regardless of the direction the seed is planted, the seed has the ability to re-position itself via the help of growth hormones that respond to gravity and redirect the seed into the proper orientation. However, after re-orientation of the seed, the root grows toward the direction of gravity (a process known as gravitropism) while the shoot grows toward the direction of sunlight (a process known as phototropism). Even though two options appear to be correct here, the most correct option based on he question is b
