Answer:
Hybrids are the offspring of two species. A mule is the hybrid offspring of a female horse and male donkey. Because mules are sterile, they are not classified as a distinct species. The biological species concept connects the idea of a species to the process of evolution.
The process by which DNA is copied to RNA is called transcription, and that by which RNA is used to produce proteins is called translation.
Answer:
This structure has not been highly beneficial for the organism
Explanation:
Vestigial structures are cells, tissues, and/or organs that have no apparent function. Vestigial structures are retained during the course of the evolution, but often they are degenerate and/or atrophied (due to disuse). In general, these structures are homologous to anatomical structures that play a specific role in evolutionarily related species. Some examples of vestigial structures include, among others, the presence of the appendix in humans and wings in flightless birds.
The correct choice from given option is "D", "Lactobacillus"
It seems proper to explain a bit about the types of cells here. Two type of cells are:
1) Prokaryotic: these cells have no nucleus and they are small and simple.
2) Eukaryotic: These cells have a nucleus and are large and complex as opposed to prokaryotic.
"Lactobacillus" belong to first stated category here.
Answer:
Zebra mussels feed on phytoplankton, which zooplankton need as a food source.
Explanation:
The population of zooplankton in Lake Erie and the Hudson River declined due to the arrival of zebra mussels because Zebra mussels feed on phytoplankton, which is the main source food of zooplankton. So due to limited or scarcity of food in the environment, the zooplankton die due to hunger that leads to the decrease of population of zooplankton in that environment.
