Answer:

The study of microbes in their natural habitat and their relationship with each other and their environment is termed as Microbial ecology. It mainly constitutes of Viruses, Eukaryotes ,Bacteria and Archaea as its living entities.

Being omnipresent in the biosphere they impact the other life-forms up to a significant extent.

They also help maintaining biogeochemical cycle by nitrogen fixation, sulfur metabolism and methane metabolism. Microbes also play a vital role of availing energy in the ecosystems where sunlight is scarce and hence photosynthesis is not good means of energy trapping, in such ecosystems the microbes actively engage in fundamental ecological processes including production, decomposition, and fixation inside the host organism.

KatRina [158]
Assumptions:
1. Equilibrium has been reached for the allele proportions
2. Absence of <span>evolutionary influences such as </span>mate choice<span>, </span>mutation<span>, </span>selection<span>, </span>genetic drift<span>, </span>gene flow<span> and </span>meiotic drive<span>.

Defining L=long stem, l=short stem, and L is dominant over l.
f(x) = frequency of allele x  (expressed as a fraction of population)
Then the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law applies:
p^2+2pq+q^2=1
where 
f(LL)=p^2
f(Ll)=2pq
f(ll)=q^2

Given f(ll)=0.35=q^2, we have
q=sqrt(0.35)=0.591608
p=1-q=0.408392
=>
f(Ll)
=2pq
=2*0.408392*0.591608=0.483216
= proportion of heterozygous population

Answer: percentage of heterozygous population is 48.32%

Recombinant DNA (rDNA) _____.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

combines genes from organisms of different species in a lab

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA technology involves the process of joining the genes (DNA) of different multiple species in order to insert into another organism (host). Recombinant DNA technology has many applications in genetic engineering.

One example of Recombinant DNA is the synthesis of Insulin in bacteria cell where a human insulin gene is first inserted into a plasmid vector, then inserted into a bacterial cell that uses its expression abilities to transcribe and translate the gene into INSULIN protein.

This procedure is usually conducted in a laboratory with the use of certain laboratory equipments.

A bird is flying in the air at a 4 m/s. If the mass of the bird is 7kg what is it’s kinetic energy
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: The kinetic energy of the flying bird is 56 Joules.

Explanation:

Mass of the bird  = 7 kg

Velocity of the flying bird = 4 m/s

Kinetic energy of the bird will be given by :

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}\times 7 kg\times (4 m/s)^2=56 Joules

The kinetic energy of the flying bird is 56 Joules.

Answer:

pretty sure it's d. invasive species

Explanation:

the reason a species is called invasive is if it is incredibly difficult to get rid of and the population is growing out of control quickly. the characteristics that was given were likewise to the behavioral problems of an invasive species.
