kkurt [141]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: genetic variation is a mutation or a change in the sequence of DNA. It can be preserved if that sequence is needed for a species to survive ( evolution). It can also be preserved if that sequence is strong enough to be passed down from mother to child. The mutation can be eliminated if it causes distress to the animal or if it makes the animals chances of survival smaller. If an extra fin on a dolphin helped it to better escape its predator and better obtain food then this trait may stick around because it is beneficial to the species. If the fin cause the dolphin to swim slower then the dolphin may not survive to reproduce or the trait will not pass on.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options. The options are:

A) Nitrogen will be incorporated into nucleic acids.

B) Phosphorus will be incorporated into amino acids.

C) Potassium will be incorporated into lipids.

D) Magnesium will be incorporated into carbohydrates.

The answer is A. Nitrogen will be incorporated into nucleic acids.

Explanation:

Fertilizers serve as external source of nutrients as they contain certain elements necessary for the build up of biomolecules in living organisms. According to this question, the bag of fertilizer contains the following elemental components: nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and calcium.

These elemental components of the fertilizer will be incorporated by organisms and used to build biomolecules in their systems. The four biomolecules are carbohydrate, proteins, lipids and nucleic acid. NUCLEIC ACID is a complex biomolecule made up of simpler NUCLEOTIDE subunits. Each nucleotide is made up of a pentose sugar, phosphate group and NITROGENOUS BASE.

NITROGENOUS BASE is a base which principally contains NITROGEN in the core of its structure. Hence, nitrogen element is a vital component necessary for the formation of nucleic acids. Therefore, Nitrogen component of the fertilizer will be incorporated into nucleic acids of organisms in the area.
