Answer:
a) 99.93%
b) 99.98%
Explanation:
Given that:
Total population size was only around 18 individuals ( for black-footed ferret)
If the annual survival rate in the wild was 0.4%.
a)
What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year?
To find that; we multiply the annual survival rate in the wild with the total population; which is:
(0.4%×18) = 0.072%
Then; we subtract it from a total of 100% in order to determine the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year.
= (100.00% - 0.072%)
= 99.93%
b)
What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present?
Given that;
Because of the presence of canine distemper disease, the annual mortality rate might have been as high as 0.89.
To determine the probability; we have:
1 - Annual mortality rate = annual survival rate
1 - 0.89 = 0.11 %
Therefore, 0.11% of 18 individuals = (0.0011 × 18)
= 0.0198%
Probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present = 100 - probability of annual survival rate
= (100 - 0.0198)%
= 99.98%
Answer:
Translation will not occur.
Explanation:
The start codon is responsible for the initiation of translation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. AUG is the start codon in both which code for methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine and prokaryotes.
Therefore if the starts codon becomes mutated than the tRNA would not able to recognize the initiation codon and no methionine would be added as the first amino acid so the translation process might not start and no protein forms. Then the ribosome scans further for the next start codon to start translation.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Matthias Jacob Schleiden was a German botanist who, with Theodor Schwann, cofounded the cell theory. In 1838 Schleiden defined the cell as the basic unit of plant structure, and a year later Schwann defined the cell as the basic unit of animal structure.
Carbon is the atom, which is necessarily find in the living organism.
All the living organisms are made up of biomolecules. All the biomolecules are organic compounds. The substance cannot be consider as living, if it lacks nucleic acids. There are two types of nucleic acids DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), both have a structure made up of carbon rings and chains.
Other than nucleic acids, proteins, enzymes, hormones etc are also made up of carbon. So, all the living cells, or dead remain of organism must have carbon atom.
Hence, the correct answer is option D. carbon.
