Machines have moving parts and electronics that can overheat in some situations. Engineers use metal heat sinks to help the heat

escape from the machine. A heat sink is made of metal and usually has fins, which give the heat sink a large surface area. Why is it important for heat sinks to be made of metal and have a large surface area?

A eukaryotic mutation upstream of a particular gene has been identified that changes the sequence of the TATA box to GATA. How w
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Transcription factor binding would be reduced or eliminated, and transcription of the gene would decrease dramatically.

Explanation:

Mutation means the changing of the structure of the gene that results in the variant form which may be transmitted to the subsequent generations.  They are caused by the altering the the single base units in the DNA of the species.

In both eukaryotic as well as prokaryotic, the mutation can affect the diversity in the future generation of the cells.

The eukaryotic mutation of the gene affects the transcription of the gene as the transcription factor binding will be lowered or will be eliminated and the transcription of this gene will decrease.

Infer whether species diversity increases or decreases after a fire on a grassland. Explain your response
MrRissso [65]
I believe it'd decrease. Many species would either take a major population hit depending on the range of the fire or some species would have to move from the area entirely.

After watching the video, how would you define the term ecological relationship? Are they always beneficial to organisms involve
dangina [55]

Answer:

There is no video but ecological relationship will be defined on a general note and it is not always beneficial to organisms.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, organisms of the same or different species tend to interact with one another. This interaction is referred to as ECOLOGICAL RELATIONSHIP between the involved organisms. An ecological relationship can be of different types depending on the effect.

SYMBIOSIS is an ecological relationship between two organisms that interact together. SYMBIOSIS can either be mutualistic (both organisms benefit), parasitic (one organism loses and one gains), or commensalistic (one organism benefits and one neither benefits or loses). Another ecological relationship is PREDATION, where one organism called the PREDATOR feeds on part or all of another organism called PREY in order to obtain energy.

As stated above, some of the organisms involved in an ecological relationship benefits while others lose. Hence, it is not always a beneficial relationship to organisms.
