The diagram below represents a marine food web and a process that can harm the human population. Each circle represents an organ

ism and the smaller dots inside them represent a toxic substance. What is being represented and how does it harm the population?
A pyramid representing a marine food web. The lowest level shows 11 white circles each with one dot inside. The middle level shows four white circles with two or three dots inside. The top level shows one white circle with 11 dots inside.

The diagram represents biological half-life, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance.
The diagram represents biomagnification, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance.
The diagram represents the process by which different organisms prey upon each other; this can impact the human population by reducing the number of organisms that do not contain the toxin.
The diagram represents the way that toxins are metabolized by living organisms, with those at greater trophic levels able to metabolize more efficiently than those at lower levels. This means that those at higher tropic levels are safer for humans to consume compared to the organisms at lower trophic levels.

ki77a [65]

Answer: Segmental duplication

Explanation:

Most of the times, segmental duplicarions occurs to preserve/conserve important regions on the chromosome to avoid extinction. If perhaps a damage occurs in one particular region that has a duplicate, the duplicate is present to help conserve the functions of the damaged regions.

____ is a genetic disorder caused by a recessive allele on the<br>X chromosome​
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Hemophilia

Explanation:

This is a disorder in which a blood coagulation factor is missing from the blood, so if the person with the disorder gets even a small injury, he'll bleed a lot due to absence of proper blood coagulation.

It's more common in males than females because females have two X chromosomes. If they have one recessive allelle on one X chromosome, while the other has the dominant allele, they're going to be asyptomatic carriers of the recessive allele.

However, since males have only one X chromosome, having the recessive allele means that they'll suffer from hemophilia. There's no chance of them being just carriers unlike the females.

Which RNA sequence will result from the transcription of the DNA sequence AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA?
dsp73

Answer:

A. UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process of Gene expression, which involves the synthesizing of a mRNA molecule from a DNA strand. This process (transcription) which is carried out or catalyzed by an enzyme called RNA polymerase, uses the complementary base pairing rule to synthesize nucleotides.

The complementary base pairing rule as proposed by Chargaff states that Adenine base (A) should bond with Thymine base (T). Likewise for Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C). Hence, in a DNA strand with sequence: AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA, the following RNA will result:

UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU.

Note that, Uracil base replaced Thymine base in the mRNA molecule.

Since; A-U and G-C

AAT TTC CGA ATG GGA ---------- DNA

UUA AAG GCU UAC CCU --------- RNA
