Biology
1 answer:
Keith_Richards [23]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct option is C. An encounter with an infected animal

Explanation:

An opportunistic organism can be described as an organism that causes infection when it gets certain opportunities or certain conditions. If the opportunities are not there, then the opportunistic organism will not be able to cause infection. For example, a weakened immune system might be an opportunity for opportunistic microorganism to cause infection.

An encounter with an infected animal would not cause disease because there would be no opportunistic conditions available for the pathogen.

Describe how DNA is coiled and eventually supercoiled to condense it into chromosomes.
Solnce55 [7]

Double-stranded DNA loops around 8 histones twice, forming the nucleosome, which is the building block of chromatin packaging. DNA can be further packaged by forming coils of nucleosomes, called chromatin fibers. These fibers are condensed into chromosomes during mitosis, or the process of cell division.

Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

During DNA packaging, long pieces of double-stranded DNA are tightly looped, coiled, super coiled, and folded so that they fit easily within the cell.  This highly compacted DNA is then arranged into structures called chromosomes.

Why is it impossible for male calico cats to exist
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

genetics

Explanation:

calico cats must also inherit a gene unrelated to the X and Y chromosomes that codes for white fur. Because male cats have one X chromosome with code for black or orange and one Y chromosome with no color genes, they cannot technically be calico. About one in every 3,000 calico cats is born a male, and, unfortunately, don't live as long as female calicos due to their genetic abnormalities. XXY Syndrome renders male calicos sterile and can be the root cause of many other health problems

What is intelligence
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The cognitive abilities of an individual to learn from experience, to reason well, and to cope effectively with the demands of daily living

Explanation:

Intelligence is something that can actually be measured, even though it is not a physical, but a psychological trait. The humans had wanted to be able to measure their intelligence for quite some time, but that only became possible with the development of the modern psychology and the test specially created for this purpose. The intelligence represents the cognitive abilities of an individual to learn from experiences, how well can it reason, as well as to cope effectively with the demands of the daily living. To put it more simple, it is the ability of an individual to acquire and apply skills and knowledge in its life.
