A functional adaptation is any adaptation that helps an organism survive.
Hence, the correct answer is option D - the color and shape of a flounder allow it to camouflage.
This adaptation allows animals to camouflage with colors, patterns, and body shapes. Both predators and preys can process camouflage.
1. A transgenic organism expresses DNA that has been derived from another species. These organisms have altered genomes and are generated in the laboratory for the purposes of research, for example, the "knock-out" mice are tansgenic mice with a particular gene of interest disabled.
2. Recombinant DNA is the DNA that has been altered to contain genes, or portions of genes, from different organisms. The DNA molecules are formed in the lab using recombination methods to bring together genetic material from multiple sources and therefore creating sequences that are not found in the genome.
3. Restriction enzymes are found naturally in bacteria and they cut DNA at specific nucleotide sequences. These enzymes are also called restriction endonucleases, they cleave DNA into fragments at or near specific recognition sites called restriction sites. They are found in bacteria and archaea and they serve to provide a defense mechanism against invading viruses.
4. Biotechnology is the use or alteration of organisms, cells, or biological molecules to produce food, drugs, or other goods. Living systems and organisms are used to make or develop products. Biotechnology enhances cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies and product for the purposes of improving life and health.
5. Polymerase chain reaction is a technique that is used to quickly synthesize billions of copiies of a specific segment of DNA. It is a quick and a very efficient way to generate many copies of DNA. The process is applicable when there are small quantities of DNA to analyze. The events of PCR involves; separation of DNA strands, addition of primers, use of DNA polymerase to produce second strand of DNA.
6. In the process known as transformation, bacteria take up pieces of DNA from the surroundings. Bacterial transformation results from the uptake of naked DNA (DNA without associated cells or proteins). Transformation may also occur naturally in some species of bacteria.
dog = cat = 54= raining cats and dogs
Organisms that die would have a harder time decaying, or may not even break down at all! Decomposers and detritivores break down dead organisms so without them it won't take place.
Answer:
Correct answer is A and B.
Explanation:
Because the Tonkinese breed has a coat that is intermediate to the coat color of the Siamese and Burmese, we can say that this demonstrates incomplete dominance which means that the dominant allele does not have the ability to completely mute the recessive allele in the phenotype.
This is also true because of the development points on the coat of the Tonkinese breed.
So the correct answer is A and B.
I hope this answer helps.
