Biology
1 answer:
Maksim231197 [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Consumers (animals) get their energy by eating the producers and/or other consumers. Scavengers and decomposers get their energy by eating dead plants or animals. Living organisms require these nutrients to create cells, tissues and to provide energy for life processes. Thus, all living things need energy to survive.

You have a 15kb plasmid. EcoRI cuts the plasmid into 7kb and 8kb pieces, and BamHI cuts the plasmid into 1kb and 14kb pieces. If
Harman [31]

Answer:

a. Bands at 1kb, 6kb and 8kb

Explanation:

The EcoRI and BamHI are the restriction enzymes which cut the DNA sequence especially a plasmid at specific sites called the restriction sites.

The restriction enzymes produces bands of specific length therefore these restriction enzymes are used to estimate the approximate length of the DNA.

In the given question, the

1. EcoRI- produces two strands of 7 kb and 8 kb

2. BamHI- produces two strands of 1kb and 14kb

This shows that the length of DNA sequence is 15kb

But when the DNA strand are digested with both the enzymes simultaneously then it will produce three bands as:

i) 14 kb can be broken down in 2 bands of 6 kb and 8 kb

ii) 1 kb band is already produced by the Bam HI.

This shows that 1+6+8= 15 kb

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Complete the sentences to describe natural selection
Vikentia [17]
  1. The environment needs to change in order to natural selection to occur.

Reason:

Because, Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.

2. Population has some genetic variations.

Reason:

Genetic variation is essential for natural selection because natural selection can only increase or decrease frequency of alleles that already exist in the population. Genetic variation is caused by:

mutation and random mating between organisms

3. Nature select organism with specific traits to survive and reproduce.

Reason:

According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.

If an organism’s diploid chromosome number is 18, how many different possible combinations of homologous chromosomes lining up d
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
<span>D. 9 </span>

<span>Notice that diploid cells which 18 are the complete number of chromosome pair of the organism. This usually happens under cell divison –mitosis which process of replicating oneself to produce another like cell. Meiosis occurs in gametes, sex cells. Their respectively called spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells). These cell division –meiosis produces haploid cells, in which in words “half” from the complete cell chromosome number, hence, these </span>haploid cells<span> only produce half number or one set of chromosome (9) instead of the complete pair which in this case, 18.<span>
