How has human activity impacted the evolution of the peppered moth?

Biology

Ivenika [448]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Most peppered moths used to be grey with dark spots, but have evolved to be mostly black. This is because pollution from the Industrial Revolution threw soot on the trees causing them to look black. This gave the black moths camouflage from predatory birds meaning they survived and reproduced. By survival of the fittest, the peppered moths became black like the trees.

This zone has the greatest concentration of plankton in a freash water lake ecosystems
ZanzabumX [31]
 According to an article/websites, the link stated below, plankton dominates the "limnetic" zone of freshwater ecosystems, which make sense since this is the topmost layer. This is the zone that receives the most sunlight, thus the plants can photosynthesize better than those at the lower levels. Plankton will rarely be found in the lowest zone as there is little to no sunlight there. The lower in the lake/freshwater ecosystem you go, the less plankton you'll find because of their lack of ability to photosynthesize. You can refer to the website below and other books/websites like it for more in-depth information on plankton and their role in freshwater ecosystems. Hope this helps.

After cloning the Glo gene in the puc18 plasmid of E.Cori, the next step would be to culture the clone.  While amplifying DNA requires Polymerase Chain Reaction cycles, amplifying proteins requires the metabolic activity of <span>organisms to utilize central dogma process and ribosome activity to produce proteins.  Culturing produces many clones that synthesize the proteins in significant amounts. </span>
