Answer: A.The ant is the predator, while the cicada is the prey.

Explanation:

A predator is a living being which kill other organisms so as to obtain it's own food. A prey is an organism which is weak and inferior over predator and killed by it.

According to the given situation, it is already mentioned that a group of ants attack a cicada, feed on it and kill it. This is a predatory response shown by the ants over the cicada. The response cannot be parasitic because the ants are not causing any disease to cicada, the ants are killing the cicada so as to obtain it as food like every predator do.

Put the following steps in the correct order from 1-9
storchak [24]

Answer:

transcription of mRNA from DNA

small ribosomal subunit binds to mRNA

initiation complex formed with addition of large ribosomal subunit

translocation

codon recognition (non-initiating site)  

peptide bond formation

ribosome reads a stop codon

polypeptide chain is released from the P site

ribosomal subunits dissociate

Explanation:

The above describes the process of translation in the ribosome. After transcription of DNA to mRNA, the mRNA is taken to the ribosome to undergo translation, here the mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subuits and to other initiation factors; binding at the mRNA binding site on the small ribosomal subunit then the Large ribosomal subunits joins in.

Translation begins (codon recognition; initiating site) at the initiation codon AUG on the mRNA with the tRNA bringing its amino acid (methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine in prokaryotes) forming complementary base pair between its anticodon and mRNA's AUG start codon. Then translocation occurs with the ribosome moving one codon over on the mRNA thus moving the start codon tRNA from the A site to the P site, then codon recognition occurs (non-initiating site again) which includes incoming tRNA with an anticodon that is complementary to the codon exposed in the A site binds to the mRNA.

Then peptide bond formation occurs between the amino acid carried by the tRNA in the p site and the A site. When the ribosome reads a stop codon, the process stops and the polypeptide chain produced is released and the ribosomal subunits dissociates.

DNA is a nucleic acid molecule that undergoes a replication process to form a new daughter strand. The blue segment is the parental strand, and the yellow is the daughter strand.

<h3>What is replication?</h3>

Replication is the process of the central dogma that duplicates the copy of the parent strand into new daughter strands. The two helixes of the parent strand get separated to make the complimentary copy of the new strand.

The daughter DNA is semi-conservative and are complementary structure made from the duplication of the parent strand with the help of the replication enzymes.

Therefore, the daughter strands are the semi-conservative copies of the parental strand.

Igg possesses _______ binding sites for antigen, and the t-cell receptor possesses _______ binding sites for antigen:
tankabanditka [31]

<u>2</u>, <u>1</u>

Igg possesses <u>2</u> binding sites for antigen, and the t-cell receptor possesses <u>1</u> binding sites for antigen.

<h3>IgG: What Does It Mean?</h3>
  • Known as immunoglobulin G, It is an antibody of some sort.
  • Your immune system produces antibodies, which are proteins, to combat pathogens.
  • Your cerebrospinal fluid's levels of IgG are measured using a CSF IgG index.
  • Normally, your cerebrospinal fluid contains very little IgG.

<h3>What is the role played by IgG in the body?</h3>
  • IgG is typically the most prevalent antibody in blood.
  • It guards against infections.
  • Therefore, infections are more likely to affect those with IgG deficiencies.
  • Your body produces unique proteins known as immunoglobulins or antibodies when it senses an attack.

<h3>When IgG is positive, what happens?</h3>
  • The presence of IgG indicates that the infection occurred several weeks to months ago.
  • Additionally, it implies that you might no longer be contagious.
  • IgG suggests that you might have some viral immunity, though you might not.

A dominant allele is ________.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

a trait that prevents the showing of orher traits.

Explanation:

in a table, 2 by 2 if both parents have the dominant gene brown eyes and recessive gene blue, then all combinations with the dominant gene prevent the recessive blue. leading to a 1 in 4 chance of blue eyes
