Plasmid or vector transformation is the process by which exogenous DNA is transferred into the host cell. Transformation usually implies uptake of DNA into bacterial, yeast or plant cells, while transfection is a term usually reserved for mammalian cells.

Answer:

Answer is option A.

Orchid bees are to Brazil nut trees as breezes are to pine trees.

Explanation:

In Brazil nut trees, the female orchid bees act as pollinators that help in pollination. In pine trees, wind or breeze helps in pollination.

Pine trees are gymnosperms and so they do not have flowers to attract pollinators like bees or butterflies or birds. They are wind-pollinated. Pine trees are monoecious i.e., both male and female reproductive structures (pine cones) are present on the same tree.

The male cones (catkins) produce pollen grains that are lightweight, less sticky and have air bladders or small wing-like structures. As a result of these features, the pollen grains can be easily carried and dispersed by the breeze. In order to prevent self pollination (pollen falling on the female cones of the same tree), the male cones are normally located on the lower branches of the pine tree.  

The female cones are located on the upper branches of the tree and the center of the cone contains eggs or ovules. The pollen grains that are carried by the wind, fall on the female cone of another pine tree. Each pollen grain grows a pollen tube into the center of the cone and the nucleus cell of the pollen travels through the tube and reaches the egg, where it combines with the egg to form an embryo. The embryo eventually grows into a seed. The seeds of pine trees are then dispersed by wind or animals such as squirrels.

1: There are four stages of meiosis including prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. In the prophase phase (first stage) the chromosomes becomes visible as paired chromatids. When this happens the nuclear envelope disappears. During metaphase (second stage) the chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers. Throughout anaphase (third phase) the chromosomes move to opposite sides of the spindle fibers. While in telophase (fourth stage) two nuclei form by chromosomes and chromatids moving to the opposite ends of the cell.

2: The cells that outcome from meiosis are haploid daughter cells.

3: Haploid.

4: The similarities of meiosis and mitosis are that they both outcome with daughter from a parent cell. Differences are that mitosis has one round of genetic separation and cellular division while meiosis has two. In meiosis it creates daughter cells that aren’t identical.

Sexual reproduction combines genetics from two parents while asexual reproduction have offspring exactly the same as the genetics of the parent.

Asexual reproduction has the advantage of quicker reproducing. Sexual reproduction have all different offspring that can adapt to many different environments.
