Answer:

Antigens

Explanation:

Antigens can be defined as molecules that can bind to antibodies. Many authors prefer to define it as any substance capable of eliciting a response from the immune system, however there are antigenic substances that react with the antibody but are not able to stimulate its production.

Antigens are usually unknown molecules in the body. Molecules that detach from foreign cells such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa or even viruses can be considered antigens. Toxins released by bacteria are also examples of substances that can bind to antibodies.

When an individual's blood-type alleles have instructions that direct the construction of a specific set of chemicals that protrude from all red blood cells, these chemicals are the antigens.

Explain how you linked the predator and its prey to a specific environment.
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The mouse and shrew bones were common to all three owls so they were not useful in identifying environments. The gopher bones were unique to the great grey owl of Alaska. Gophers are rodents that are successful in areas with soft soil and lots of grass, so the gopher and this owl would be found in the meadows and evergreen forests of Alaska. The bat was unique to the barking owl of Australia. The bat would be found in woodland habitats where there are many trees the bat can hang from. The gull bones were unique to the short-eared owl of Cuba. Gulls are wetland birds, so the gull and this owl would be found in marshes and coastal areas.

In the genetic drift analogy of a drunk man on a train platform, the width of the platform is analogous to what
konstantin123 [22]

The answer is the population size.  The chance has a role in determining whether a given individual survives and reproduces and the alleles in the offspring are a sample of those in the parents. it is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms. Genetic Drift or another term for allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect.

A cell with 80 chromosomes undergoes mitosis. How many chromosomes are found in the daughter cells? How many daughter cells are
Natalka [10]

Answer:

1. 80 chromosomes are found in each of the daughter cells. 2. Two daughter cells are produced. 3. The daughter cells are identical to each other.

Explanation:

Mitosis is simply a process of cell division whereby two daughter cells that are genetically identical are produced from a single parent cell. A cell having 80 chromosomes would undergo Mitosis through these various stages:

Interphase: This can be referred to as the rest phase between cell division when mature enough for reproduction. This is a preparatory stage where DNA is duplicated and ready for the division of chromosomes

Prophase: This stage marks the beginning mitosis of the cell with 80 chromosomes. The chromatin threads start a coiling process in which the chromosomes become condensed to enable easy distribution to daughter cells without tangling.  

Prometaphase: This phase commences toward the end of the prophase, where the nuclear envelop breaks down. The chromosomes move toward to the center of the cell.

Metaphase: At this stage, the duplicated chromosomes line up on the mid plane or equator of the cell. During this stage, each chromatid is condensed completely and appears thick and distinct.

Anaphase: At this stage, the chromosomes move toward the poles as each replicated copies of the DNA of the cell ends up on either side of the cell. What we would have here at this stage is an entirely two new sister chromatid having 80 chromosomes. Cytokinesis begins towards the end of this stage as the parent cell cytoplasm divides which also continues at telophase.

Telophase: This is the final phase of Mitosis where two separate nuclei are formed and Cytokinesis takes place to complete the division of the cell to form two daughter cells having the same number of chromosomes. These cells are genetically identical to the original parent cell.
