There are three main factors that affect the mutation rates in an organism. The three are:
1. <span>Frequency of Primary Changes in DNA
2. </span><span>Probability of Repair
3. </span><span>Probability of Recognition</span>
Answer:
i think C
Explanation:
Natural selection is the process where organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.
A downhill skier traveling down a hill has a large amount of kinetic energy because of their mass and high velocity.
Dodder is a parasitic plant which has A. HAUSTORIAL ROOTS for support and absoption of nutrients from the host plant.
Dodder can not live alone. It grows from a seed and sprout from the ground but if it does not find a host within 10 days, it will die.
When the Dodder finds its host, it twines itself in a counter-clockwise direction around the stem of its host. The Dodder stem has bumps called "haustoria". These bumps are tightly pressed against the stem of the host plant and said bumps will eventually push their way inside the hosts' stem to pull the nutrients it needs to survive to the detriment of the host plant.
Dodder plant may be parasitic but it does not kill its own host instead it causes the growth of the host to be stunted.
Answer:
Pupillary light reflex refers to the contraction that the pupils present when they light up. In cases of injury to the optic nerve, when the eye where the injured optic nerve is illuminated, since it cannot conduct the stimulus to the brain, neither pupil closes.
Explanation:
Pupillary light reflex refers to the reaction that causes the pupil to close with light thanks to the contraction of the sphincter of the pupil and to open in the dark thanks to the relaxation of that muscle by not receiving any stimulus. A light stimulus reaches the eye and in the retina it is transformed, through a chemical reaction, into an electrical stimulus that will be transmitted through the optic nerve and the visual pathways to the brain. The visual cells of the retina, rods and cones, also act as light receptors that control the pupil's motor activity. Thus, pupil-motor thresholds to light follow the same spectral sensitivity deviations as visual thresholds, which are a function of the state of light adaptation of the retina.
