Answer:

Competition for food happens when there is a limited amount of food resources available. The members of a species that eat that food who are best adapted to access the food are more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes to the next generation.

For example, we have a bird feeder with a narrow opening for food. The small-headed birds can reach the food, the bigger-headed birds cannot. If this was the only food source for this area, then over time, there would be more smaller-headed birds than large-headed birds, due to the competition for food and success/lack of success.

Describe the genetic mutations that you think occurred in the cancer cells that were responsible for the phenotypic differences
ruslelena [56]

ANSWER:

Most types of cancer are believed to begin with a random genetic mutation. This is followed by mutations, which endow the cancer cells with properties allowing them to grow without normal controls to become a tumor.

Mutation is any change in the DNA sequence of a cell. Mutations may be caused by mistakes during cell division, or they may be caused by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment.

Genetic Mutations that lead to cancer cell formation can occur in two forms:

1. GROWTH-PROMOTING GENES are commonly mutated in cancer cells, becoming SUPER-ACTIVE and producing cells that are too strongly stimulated by growth receptors.

2. Mutations can INACTIVATE the genes that suppress cell proliferation or those that signal the need for apoptosis. These genes are known as TUMOR SUPPRESSOR GENES.

IThese statements compare and contrast Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. I. Some species in both groups can cause plant diseases. II
amm1812

The correct answer is I and IV

In the Basidiomycetes, the spores are produced externally on the end of specialized club-shaped structure called basidia. Whereas, In ascomycetes, spores are produced internally, in the sac-like structure called an ascus.  Some members of ascomycetes cause plant diseases such as powdery mildew of grape (<em>Uncinula necator</em>), chestnut blight (<em>Cryphonectria parasitica</em>), and apple scab (<em>Venturia inequalis)</em>. Memers of basidiomyctes cause smut of corn (<em>Ustilago maydis</em>), brown root rot, and coffee rust.

you are an employer and know from genetic testing that the most qualified applicant for the job has a 70 % chance of developing
Ludmilka [50]
I would hire this person because the disease is non-communicable. Plus, small cold and cough problems will not affect the performance of the person and therefore, there are little chances that he/she will take frequent holidays. Further, morally this job will help the person financially, in getting the proper treatment of the disease, if it occurs. And this will also raise the confidence and personality of the person. If the person has the skills that match our requirements, I will definitely hire him, despite his chances of developing multiple sclerosis.

Why are changes in the global carbon cycle important?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:II) Deforestation and suburbanization reduce an area's net primary productivity.

III) Increasing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide could alter Earth's climate.

IV) By using fossil fuels we are destroying a nonrenewable resource.

Explanation:

The global carbon cycle can be defined as the cycle of carbon in which the carbon is transformed and changed into forms while transferring to atmosphere, land, ocean and in the form of fossil fuels.

The deforestation and suburbanization processes will likely to affect the contribution of the plant in the net primary productivity generate due to photosynthesis process that involves the production of carbon products in the form of glucose by atmospheric carbon dioxide.

The increase in atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide through the burning of fossil fuels is likely to warm the earth climate. The burning of fossil fuel is likely to increase the abundance of carbon dioxide in the air.

The fossil fuels are the source of non-renewable resource utilized for the purpose of generation of thermal energy. These resources once consumed will not get replenished thus this will reduce the carbon level produced due to burning of fossil fuels in the future.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 58 and its mass number is 163
mr_godi [17]
Number of neutron = mass number - atomic number
                               = 163 - 58

Number of neutrons of element X is 105.
