Answer:
<em><u>D. The first flowering plants were introduced toward the end of the Mesozoic era.</u></em>
<em><u /></em>
Explanation:
Following the Paleozoic Era, the Mesozoic Era or <em>Age of Conifers</em> began approximately 250 million years ago. This major geological era brought about the ancestors of many of the plant and animal groups still in existence today.
The Mesozoic era is marked by 3 divisions:
- the Triassic Period,
- the Jurassic Period,
- and the Cretaceous Period.
Animals and plants slowly recovered after the mass extinction in the Permian-Triassic extinction that led to the eradication of most aquatic marine species. They evolved to exploit varying niches in their environment, leading to a boom in terrestrial animals. Over time the planet's increasingly warm climate, abundant in atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide, contributed to the growth of diverse megaflora, that rapidly dominated the planet's terrestrial biosphere.
By the end of the <em>Mesozoic Era</em>, in the Cretaceous period, flowering plants (angiosperms) largely replaced the dominant seed ferns of the <em>Triassic</em>, and the conifers, cycads and gymnosperms of the <em>Jurassic</em>.
<em>Varied dispersal mechanisms in angiosperms co-evolved with the evolution of certain types of fauna. Plants used animal life, including herbivorous reptiles and early mammal-like species to disperse large seeds.</em>
Answer: Ethnocentrism
Explanation:
Ethnocentrism refers to the tendency to see other people's culture i.e way of life such as mode of dressing, eating pattern, marital rites etc as INFERIOR, while ONLY your own culture is normal, natural and superior, and should therefore be adopted by all people.
Answer:
Phenotypes are physical attributes. Genotypes are the alleles.
The phenotypes are 75% green peas and 25% yellow peas. This is because the capital G is a dominant allele and green is the dominant attribute and as long as 1 G is present, then the pea will appear green.
The genotypes are 25% GG, 50% Gg, and 25% gg.

Explanation:
A. Shine-Dalgarno Sequence:
- This is a binding site found in the messenger RNA (mRNA) in prokaryotic organisms. It is found upstream of the start codon AUG and aids in the initiation of protein synthesis
B. SRP:
- Signal Recognition Protein (SRP). This acts by binding to the bacterial ribosome, which as a result restricts protein synthesis.
C. NLS:
- Nuclear Localisation Signal is a short amino acid sequence, which is responsible for transporting proteins from the cell cytoplasm into the nucleus. The NLS is also responsible for the development of the nuclear envelope of the cell.
D. Ubiquitin:
- Found predominately in Eukaryota, the ubiquitin is a protein that aids in the control of other proteins within the organism.
E. Specificity Factor:
- Also known as the sigma factor, is responsible for the initiation of bacterial transcription. It is recycled during the transcription process and is only required at the initiation of transcription.
F. CRP:
- cAMP Receptor Protein (CRP) is involved in catabolite (glucose) repression and serves as an inducer in the process.
