Answer:

-8 taxonomic levels: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

- 6 kingdoms: Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protist, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.

Explanation:

Taxonomy is the study of different organisms, their classification into categories according to their morphological and molecular characteristics and their evolutionary relationships, and assigning to each them a binomial name.

The categories where organisms are classified into are:

Domains are the highest taxonomic category in which living beings can be grouped or divided. There are three domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

- The archaea domain is composed of prokaryotic unicellular microorganisms that lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles, but they have a cell wall that protects the cell. These organisms are capable of inhabiting in places with extreme temperature, salinity, acidity, or pH, among others. They reproduce asexually.

- The bacteria domain is composed of a wide group of unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms with a simple structure and sized between 1 to 10 micrometers. These organisms lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles. They only present plasmids and ribosomes. They have a cell membrane and a cell wall that protects the cell. Some of them can also present a capsule. They reproduce asexually.

- The eukarya domain is composed of all the unicellular or pluricellular organisms that have eukaryotic cells that characterize by having a well-defined nucleus surrounded by a complex biological membrane. They also present organelles delimitated by membranes. These organisms reproduce asexually and sexually.

Kingdom: Includes different phyla closely relates. The bacteria domain includes the Eubacteria kingdom. The archaea domain includes the archaebacteria kingdom. Finally, the eukarya domain is divided into four kingdoms: Protist, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

Phylum: Includes different classes closely related.

Class: Includes different orders closely relates.
Order: Includes different families closely related
Family: Includes different genera closely relates
Genus: Includes many species.
Species

Humans produce skin cells by mitosis and gametes by meiosis. The nuclei of skin cells produced by mitosis will have

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The nuclei of the skin cells produced by mitosis will have identical genetic material as that of the parent cell.

It is because mitosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells, each having equal and identical chromosomes as that of the parent cell.

In addition, events like crossing over do not take place due to which no genetic variation is developed in the daughter cells.

The process of mitosis is mainly involved in the repair and growth of the body.

How does the introduction of invasive species such as the brown tree snake upset the stability of the legal system

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Invasive species compete for the same natural resources such as food and water which the native species also need for survival.

Explanation:

Invasive species upset the stability of the ecosystem because the prey in their new environment does not have the needed defense against them. They also upset the food chain, consume so much, and overpopulate in the new territory thus causing the extinction of the native species.

The introduction of brown tree snakes in Guam disrupted the ecological system as their population increased rapidly because their preys in this new environment lacked the ability to defend themselves against the brown tree snakes. For this reason, more than twelve native birds in the Guam Islands went into extinction. They also consumed the natural resources needed for the survival of the native species.
