Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "Site-specific recombination involves two defined sequence elements, whereas transposition involves the movement of a specific sequence to a nonspecific site in the DNA".

Explanation:

Site-specific recombination is a type of genetic recombination that involves two defined sequence elements. The recombination is catalyzed by Site-specific recombinases (SSRs) that recognizes and binds to the short DNA sequences that are recognized. On the other hand, transposition is a type of genetic recombination that involves the movement of a specific sequence to a nonspecific site in the DNA. Transposition is mediated by transposases, a large super-family of enzymes from both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Light energy.

Explanation:

Light energy cannot reach the chloroplasts, preventing ATP, NADPH and sugars because light energy is responsible for photosynthesis in algae. if light energy is not available to algae, then no photosynthesis happens and as a result no energy produced in the form of ATP, NADPH and sugars in the body of algae. so we can conclude that light energy is responsible for the preventing of production of ATP, NADPH and sugars.

Does the size of the parachute affect its flight?
lana66690 [7]
Independent Variable: flight
Dependent Variable: size of parachutes
Controlled Variables: precipitation, wind speed, person using parachute (weight), and the shape of the parachute.

The question is slightly broad; it does not specify whether the experiment focuses on the quality of the flight (stability in the air), speed of descent, or the distance it can travel. However, this is what I have come up with.
