Answer:
D Independent assortment occurs when chromosomes separate during meiosis and causes variations that can be beneficial or harmful to a species
Explanation:
During meiosis, the homologous chromosomes separate and segregate independently of each other. This process is referred to as 'independent assortment'. In consequence, different gene variants or 'alleles' localized in homologous chromosomes segregate independently of each other during gamete formation, thereby one particular gamete has an equal probability to carry either of these segregating alleles. Independent assortment generates genetic variation in the gametes, which can be beneficial or deleterious in a given environment.
Answer:
E.coli is a bacterium which is preffered for transformation due to its rapid growth and high efficiency of introduction of DNA molecules into cells.
Tetracycline is an antibiotic used to treat several infections such as cholera, plague, brucellosis, and malaria etcetra.
Plasmid is a small, extrachromosomal DNA molecule present in cell which is seprated from chromosomal DNA and have ability to replicate independently.
When a plasmid resistant to tetracycline and kanamycine is inserted into E.coli, the process is called transformation. E.coli might not be able to survive due to absence of plasmid but the transformed strains having antibiotic tetracycline and kanamycine will probably be able to survive it.
Hence, the culture of bacteria carrying plasmid will be able to survive only.
The action of compressing or being compressed.
the reduction in volume (causing an increase in pressure) of the fuel mixture in an internal combustion engine before ignition.
Answer:
1: Burning of fossil fuel
2: Deforestation
3: Waste disposal in landfills
Explanation:
Burning of fossil fuel is the one of the primary cause of increased level of carbon dioxide in air. Deforestation refers to uncontrolled cutting down of trees which in turn increases the level of carbon dioxide in air. Plants are the natural resources that remove the carbon dioxide from air through the process of photosynthesis. Waste disposals in landfills emits methane which is one of the greenhouse gas.
