The answer is d. The population of light-colored moths decreased and the population of dark-colored moths increased.
<span>Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection. During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.</span>
If your metabolism is "high" (or fast), you will burn more calories at rest and during activity. ... A person with a "low" (or slow) metabolism will burn fewer calories at rest and during activity and therefore has to eat less to avoid becoming overweight.
Thin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell
- contains the cytoplasm (all interior cell organelles and the cytosol) - allowing the chemical reactions in the cell to occur
<span>- semipermeable (or selectively permeable) - allows certain substances in, keeps others out </span>

The denaturation step in the polymerase chain reaction will be affected. As a result the DNA strands will not unwind and the DNA will not become single stranded.
<u>Explanation:</u><u>
</u>
Polymerase chain reaction is used to synthesize multiple copies of DNA. The technique in molecular biology uses thermal cycling which involves steps of heating and cooling. There are three important steps in PCR.
Nucleic acid denaturation is the first step. In this step the DNA is heated to about 90°c and this causes the denaturation of the DNA. Two strands of DNA get separated. The second step is annealing in which the strands are cooled to 55°c.
During annealing the primers stick to the complementary sites on the DNA to facilitate its replication. The third step is extension in which the temperature of the mixture is raised to 72°c. The tag polymerase will start working on the DNA strands and replicate them.
If the denaturation step is not performed the speration of double stranded DNA into single strands won’t take place.
