In describe four features of bacteria that enable them to survive in a wide variety of habitats
ohaa [14]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The 4 principle requirements for microorganisms survival are:

1) Food

2) Moisture

3) Warmth

4) Time

There are microscopic organisms that can develop in cold temperatures and some that blossom with warm temperatures.

A few bacteria go after the other microscopic organisms for survival. Different microscopic organisms get by getting supplements from dead items. Some microorganisms use photosynthesis to make their nourishment.

Why do leaves appear green?
s2008m [1.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is B. Green wavelengths are the least used in photosynthesis.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Plants have a pigment in them called as chlorophyll. This chlorophyll is able to absorb only certain wavelengths of the light within the light spectrum.

From that visible light spectrum, chlorophyll is only able to absorb light of red and blue wavelength. The green light is not absorbed by the by chlorophyll as it is reflected back.

Therefore, this reflection of green light makes the leaves to appear green.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

When looking at a pedigree remember that:

  • squares are males
  • circles are females
  • the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
  • the empty figure represents a healthy individual

Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.

According to this pedigree

  • I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
  • I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
  • we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.

So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD

Parentals)    YX⁻     x     X⁺X⁻  

Gametes)   Y     X⁻      X⁺     X⁻

Punnett square)

                        X⁺             X⁻

            X⁻      X⁺X⁻         X⁻X⁻    

            Y        X⁺Y           X⁻Y

F1)

  • The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%

Part of an important cellular process involving a DNA strand is modeled below. What is the purpose of this cellular process ?​
Burka [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Transcribing information in the DNA sequence for use by the cell.

Explanation:

The transcription process is the process that involves copying the sequence of DNA, that sequence is the information or code for the particular protein, to make RNA molecule that brings the information to the ribosome where translation process initiated to produce amino acid chain.

In the given diagram, the cellular process is showing is transcription as there is transcribing the sequence is shown which copy the sequence that is used for the cell and a useful part of protein synthesis
