Answer:

Legislation in some areas has been effective in preventing further coral reef loss. In Australia, zoning laws require individuals who have collector's licenses to collect only in certain areas. Collectors have been able to gather 45 to 50 metric tons of material with no measurable effect on coral reefs. Facilities have been established to measure cyanide levels in live reef fish. The percentage of fish testing positive for cyanide has declined from 80% to 30% in the past five years. Facilities have been able to make a positive impact on coral reef preservation efforts.

bazaltina [42]
<span>The correct answer is horizontal gene transfer, transduction.</span>  

Transduction (a type of horizontal gene transfer)is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a bacteria cell. When viruses infect bacterial cells, their DNA is integrated into a bacterial chromosome and thus harness the replicational, transcriptional, and translation machinery of the bacteria. As a result, bacteria cell makes numerous virions (viral particles).

The diagram shows a simple lipid.
Evgesh-ka [11]

The correct answer is option A, that is, saturated.

The mentioned lipid is not a phospholipid, as it does not comprise a phosphate group at the terminal of the chain, and is not a triglyceride due to the absence of glycerol moiety.

Each carbon combined with the hydrogens forms the maximum number of possible C-H bonds, thus, there are no multiple bonds between the carbons. Hence, it can be concluded that the lipid is saturated.

Leaves curving towards sunlight are examples of _____.
aleksklad [387]


The correct answer is phototrophism.

Phototrophism is said to be the growth of a plant toward a source of light.

It is response to the stimulus of  light and is seen when a plant bends towards the direction that light is coming from. Response by plants to a stimulus is called tropism. The  word or prefix "photo" means or refers to light. Therefore phototropism simply means response to light.

Phototropism can be especially evident in the jungle where the jungle floor gets very little light. If a tall tree falls to the ground, it leaves a gap in the canopy through which sunlight streams to the ground. Many jungle plants growing on the ground will bend towards the  gap  and rapidly grow towards the source of  light.
