Answer: the correct answer is E. Snakes, a major predator of young prairie voles, are active only from spring through early autumn.
Explanation:
Mortality among young voles from spring to early fall is high because snakes are active during this time.
Answer:
Written below.
Explanation:
5. During meiosis, a reproductive cell and its nucleus divide twice and produce four cells––two pairs of identical haploid cells.
6. Homologous chromosomes are two pieces of DNA within a diploid organism that carry the same genes, one from each parental source. In simpler terms, both of your parents provide a complete genome. Each parent provides the same 23 chromosomes, which encode the same genes.
Answer:
Decrease in genetic diversity reduces the chance of variation in the offspring.
Explanation:
If there is no variation, there will be no evolution. So, if there is a change in the environment (like an outbreak of a disease) that affects one of the organisms, it is likely to affect all of them and destroy the whole population. This would lead to extinction.
If i'm not mistaken amino acids can be used in our body to fuel a process in which cell replication occurs and DNA is made. So to use amino acids as fuel you would have to make sure everything is in correct order and lines up correctly from the time it's released from the nucleus to a ribosome.
