Answer:

144

Explanation:

Population growth rate refers to the measure of how a population (N) changes over a particular time (t). Hence, it is termed as (dN/dt) where d represents the change.

The logistic population growth rate equation is given as:

dN/dT = rmaxN (K-N/K)

Where; dN/dt = population growth rate

K = carrying capacity of

population

rmax = maximum per capital

growth rate

N = population number

dN/dt = 0.3 × 1200 (2000-1200/2000)

dN/dt = 360 (800/2000)

dN/dt = 360 (0.4)

dN/dt = 144

Hence, the growth rate of the population (dN/dt) is 144

Why are unused embryos available? How could they be used in medical research?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Why are embryos used in medical research?

Stem cells can be obtained at the early stages of embryo development; these cells are called human embryonic stem cells (hESC). They also could be used in research to develop drugs to treat serious diseases, or to repair organs following a stroke or heart attack.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

In winter, the forest is extremely cold. The roots of the evergreen plants are unable to access water. The needle-like structure of these trees minimizes water loss from transpiration. The needles are also dark in color. The color allows them to absorb maximum sunlight for photosynthesis. Even with little food, the animals in the biome can access food from these trees. Squirrels can eat the seeds from the pinecones. Crossbill birds have special beaks that allow them to access the seeds. Moose eat sappy twigs. They’ve also adapted to build fat reserves to help them survive the harsh winter. Some animals hibernate, and others migrate to warmer places to survive the winter. During summer, the long days allow abundant photosynthesis. So, there’s increased plant growth accompanied by increased insect activity. Trees with seasonal leaves develop new leaves. Birds that had migrated return during the summer, when food is readily available. The plants and animals work as a system to obtain an adequate food supply throughout the year.

The restriction endonuclease ecori cleaves the dna sequence 5'-gaattc-3' in such a way as to leave a 5' overhang, which is often
qaws [65]

The restriction endonuclease EcoRI cleaves the DNA sequence 5'-GAATTC-3' in such a way as to leave a 5' overhang, which is often referred to as a "sticky end". To 5' overhang with the complementary sequence this sticky end adhere.

  • The palindrome EcoRI restriction site breaks DNA after G and creates sticky ends with AATT. G/corresponding AATTC's DNA sequence is CTTAA/G, where "/" designates the location of the peptide bond break.
  • When the ssDNA sequence 5'-GAATTC'-3 is recognised by the restriction endonuclease EcoRI, a single-strand cut is made between the G and A nucleotides.
  • At the ultimate end of double-stranded DNA, an overhang is single-stranded DNA. This can occur on either strand, and if it does, there will either be a 5' overhang on the 5' end of the strand or a 3' overhang on the 3' end of the strand.
