Biology
1 answer:
Umnica [9.8K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Wegener suggested that perhaps the rotation of the Earth caused the continents to shift towards and apart from each other. (It doesn't.) Today, we know that the continents rest on massive slabs of rock called tectonic plates. The plates are always moving and interacting in a process called plate tectonics.

This statement is true.

In the case of autosomal dominant disease, the person is either homozygous (which is very rare) or heterozygous. On the molecular level, either the mutation produced a new deleterious protein for the organism, or the mutation affected an existing protein in the physiological state and that a 50% activity is not enough to compensate for the needs. of the body.

In case of autosomal recessive disease, the sick person is always homozygous. If the two loci each have a different mutant allele, it is called a "composite heterozygote". People with autosomal recessive inheritance disorder have "mandatory heterozygote" parents.

Name three invasive species and the specific location on Earth that they are affecting.
yan [13]

Answer:

Rats - Virgin Island

Hemlock - Asia

Zebra moulds - Great Lakes

Explanation:

An alien species is one that was introduced into a new environment, but does not have harmful effects. Such alien species are considered invasive species as they begin to have harmful effects on the new habitat. Invasive species can cause damage to the ecosystem, economic harm or human health effects.

Three invasive species are as following:

  1. Rats that came on board ships to the Virgin Islands infested the islands' sugar cane fields and caused significant crop damage.
  2. The woolly adelgid hemlock is an invasive Asian insect which rapidly kills infested hemlock trees.
  3. Zebra moulds in the Great Lakes can easily cover submerged surfaces, obstructing water intakes at water treatment plants and power plants
