Based on cell differentiation, what it means when a gene can be "turned off" or "turned on", or not expressed is what we call INDUCIBLE GENES. Other genes are inducible having this characteristic. When a gene is inducible, this means it can be responsive to its external environment or not. Hope this helps.

6. Why does meiosis increase genetic variation in the offspring, but mitosis does not? (1 point)
brilliants [131]
Meiosis involves crossing over where chromosomes exchange genetic segments, resulting in different sets of chromosomes. Each time an egg or sperm created, it is different due to this recombination. Mitosis on the other hand is non-sex cells replicating exact copies of themselves which lead to no genetic variation as they aren't involved in producing offspring.

Describe the potential effects when a keystone species is removed from a community.
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

A keystone species is the one which plays an important role in maintaining the structure of the ecosystem. On the keystone species many other species of the ecosystem are dependent upon.  

The potential effects associated with the keystone species includes the following:

1. No other species will be capable of filling the same ecological niche. Hence, the dependent organisms will suffer and the ecosystem will change drastically.

2. The ecosystem will be populated by the invasive species which will affects the population of native species.
