The correct options are:

The organism would not grow.

If an organism were cut or burned, the damaged area would not heal.

The organism would not produce new cells.

The mitosis is essential for the division of the cells. The division of the cells allow the organism to grow and heal the damaged cells. The division of the cells replace the old cells and multiply the number of the cells in an organism. hence, in any condition, the organism would be affected and in the absence of the mitosis, the organism cannot heal and cannot grow, due to non-production of new cells.

Deep water rises along the coast of Peru to replace surface water carried away from the coast by strong winds. Why is upwelling

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Upwelling is important to mix the nutrients that are present deep inside the water.Updewelling is a phenomenon in which the deeper water rises and gets mixed to the surface water to promote the growth of phytoplanktons and seaweeds as the water that is present deep inside is rich in nutrients.These phytoplanktons serve as as source of energy for large fishes and other aquatic animals. As these large animals are higher in population and are an important part of food chain and they also provide food to different marine mammals ,sea birds.The deep water infuses with costal water so to serve as a fuel for high productivity of marine ecosystem.

Which of the followings statements is true?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D, Unconfined aquifers are found between two layers of impermeable soil or rock.

Explanation:

An unconfined aquifer is not confined by rock layer on both of its side. Usually the ground water level (GWL) is considered as the upper layer of unconfined aquifer. Also the rocky layer found on the other side of the unconfined aquifer is not impermeable as the major source of recharge of unconfined aquifer is the seepage of water through is permeable layer or through rain.

List the products or outcomes for the following biological processes

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

1- DNA replication: two identical DNA strands

2- Transcription: mRNA

3-Translation: proteins

4- Mitosis: two identical diploid somatic cells

5- Meiosis: four different haploid gamete cells

Explanation:

1- DNA replication: through the process of semiconservative DNA replication two identical DNA strands are created

2- Transcription: the process by which DNA becomes mRNA

3-Translation: the process by which mRNA becomes proteins

4- Mitosis: a parent cell will split into two identical diploid somatic cells, this process is used to replace old cells

5- Meiosis: a parent cell will split into four different haploid gamete cells, this process is used to create ovary/testes cells

How is genetic engineering different from natural reproduction?

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Genetic Engineering is on purpose.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering could range from selective breeding to adding/removing DNA and RNA. Natural reproduction occurs with the sole purpose of creating successful offspring. The offspring could he tainted if the male and female are related leaving it to not have the DNA or RNA necessary to lessen the likelihood of dysfunctional genetics.
