7 0

Answer:

1. Nucleoid

2. Plasmid

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are groups of organisms characterized by the lack of a membrane-bound nucleus in their cell. Due to this, the genetic material (DNA) of prokaryotes are found naked i.e. not housed. The DNA of a prokaryote is arranged in a single coiled chromosome located in a region of the cell called NUCLEOID.

However, some prokaryotes e.g. bacteria carry genes on extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA called PLASMID. Plasmids carry certain genes like antibiotic resistance genes.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

A)11,460 years

Explanation:half of a radioactive element represent the time take for half of it's components to dissociate or disintegrate.

For carbonn14 that undergo an emmision to form a stable carbon 14,it moves thus

14C(1 part) ______14C(0.5 parts)_____14C(0.25parts)

i.e it undergo two radioactive decay which means two half lives .

Since each half life is 5780 years ,the age will be 2×half lives= 2×5780=11,460 years

Answer:

I would say B.

Explanation:

A would only fix biodiversity temporarily, until humans come and wipe them out again. C is just kind of impossible, and containing them could also be problematic.

All embryos appear female during early development. <br> a. True<br> b. False
guapka [62]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Geneticists have discovered that all human embryos start life as females. In the early development in the embryonic stage, this is true both for humans and mammals. This changes only at the 2nd month (in the case of humans, since different mammals have different gestating periods) if the embryo can elaborate enough androgens (dominant male hormone) to offset the maternal estrogens (dominant female hormone) then, maleness develops.

What happens to the body cells if the kidney produce very little urine?
Andreas93 [3]

Explanation:

Having filtered out small essential molecules from the blood - the kidneys must reabsorb the molecules which are needed, while allowing those molecules which are not needed to pass out in the urine. Therefore, the kidneys selectively reabsorb only those molecules which the body needs back in the bloodstream.
