Answer:

D)the sexually reproducing species

Explanation:

  • Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which two parents are required to generate an offspring.
  • As this mode of reproduction requires two parents, the genetic composition of the offspring is a mixture of both the parents and hence, sexual reproduction gives rise to genetic variation.
  • Genetic variation is essential to survive in a changing environment as it can lead to the development of certain characters that prove to be essential for survival.
  • Therefore, if there are 25 different species of protists in the tide pool, it is the sexually reproducing species that will be able to thrive in the changing environment as their offsprings will have genetic variation and this may lead to a positive natural selection.

Why are elephants scared of mice??
IrinaVladis [17]

It's not known if elephants are actually scared of mice, but as the television show 'Mythbusters' has shown: where possible, elephants will avoid mice. Perhaps mice are to elephants what cockroaches are to people: something small and fast that they instinctively back away from.

What is the correct sequence of molecules involved in protein synthesis from beginning to end?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

DNA → mRNA → tRNA → Protein

DNA → mRNA → tRNA → Protein

Explanation:

This is because during protein synthesis, DNA is use to make RNA in the process called transcription. The DNA double strand is unwind by an enzyme called RNA polymerase to produce mRNA in the nucleus. The trans is produced in the nucleolus by RNA polymerase 1 and the site then binds aminoacyl tRNAs which is assembled in the RIBOSOMES. The tRNA are then translated into protein.
