Answer:
1. chromosome: tight coils of DNA
2. Eukaryote: a cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus
3. Gene: a specific sequence of DNA nucleotides that carry hereditary traits
4. Prokaryote: a cell whose nucleus is not bound by a membrane
5. Trait: genetic characteristic of an individual
Explanation:
Chromosomes are the thread-like structures that appear during cell division. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled with its packing proteins.
A cell is defined as eukaryote or prokaryote on the basis of the presence of a membrane-bound nucleus. The cells that lack the membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles are called prokaryotic cells. Example: bacteria.
The cells that have a membrane bound nucleus in which DNA is present are called eukaryotic cells. Example: Plant cells.
A stretch of DNA that code for a particular protein and thereby regulate specific genetic trait is called a gene. Genes are present on chromosomes and are carried from one generation to next to maintain the genetic traits.
The features of living beings regulated by the gene are called trait. Example: skin color, eye color, etc.
Explanation:
Two important ways by which humans have affected the carbon cycle, especially in recent history, are: 1) the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere during the burning of fossil fuels, and 2) the clearing of trees and other plants (deforestation) that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Answer:
10 meters/second.
Explanation:
Unladen swallow consists of two species are <em>Hirundo domicella </em>and the <em>Hirundo spilodera</em>.
The average speed of unladen swallow comes out to be 10 meters/second. The maximum speed can go upto 13-14 meters/second. The speed of unladen swallow can be calculated by the formula given by Graham K. Taylor. According to graham the speed of unladen swallow is 3 times of the product of frequency and amplitude. ( v= 3fA, v is velocity, f is frequency and A is amplitude).
Answer:
The highest population an environment can support.
Chlorella is a genus of about thirteen species of single-celled green algae belonging to the division Chlorophyta. The cells are spherical in shape, about 2 to 10 μm in diameter, and are without flagella. Their chloroplasts contain the green photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll-a and -b. In ideal conditions cells of Chlorella multiply rapidly, requiring only carbon dioxide, water, sunlight, and a small amount of minerals to reproduce.
