Elephants exhibit herding behavior. When they travel, the oldest and largest members often travel on the outer edges of the grou

p. Why is this important to the survival of the species?
A.
Elephants have few offspring, so they need to protect them from predators.
B.
Elephants have large numbers of offspring, so they need an organized system of travel.
C.
This arrangement allows adult members of the groups to spot mates.
D.
This arrangement allows young members of the group to spot food more easily.

Correct answer - A (Elephants have few offspring, so they need to protect them from predators.)

Why? - The herd is led by the oldest and often largest female in the herd, called a matriarch. They live in herds so that the young elephants stay safe from predators.

In describe four features of bacteria that enable them to survive in a wide variety of habitats
ohaa [14]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The 4 principle requirements for microorganisms survival are:

1) Food

2) Moisture

3) Warmth

4) Time

There are microscopic organisms that can develop in cold temperatures and some that blossom with warm temperatures.

A few bacteria go after the other microscopic organisms for survival. Different microscopic organisms get by getting supplements from dead items. Some microorganisms use photosynthesis to make their nourishment.

What differs among DNA structures of different species?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

D) the arrangement of the nucleotides within genes

Explanation:

De-oxy ribo nucleic acid that is basically a polymer of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of three basic units: a de-oxyribose sugar unit, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases that can be Adenine, Gunanine, Thymine and Cytosine.Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.

This is a universal composition of DNA in each and every living organism. The genes are a segment of DNA that contain specific sequence of nucleotides and encode for a specific trait of organism such as height, weight, eye color etc. The sequence of nucleotides expresses the trait in the form of protein product during the process of Translation. The products of translation are amino acids and every amino acids encode for a specific protein  in almost  all living organisms.

So, what differs in the specie is the sequence of nucleotides in genes. Infact this is the nucleotide sequence which brings evolution in organism and organisms evolve to form new specie with the passage of time. One major cause of change in nucleotide sequence is mutations due to which the organisms change with time.

Suppose the sequence of nucleotide of specific gene in organism A is

AAGGGGAAATTT

However in other specie organism B of same specie is:

TAGGGGAAATTT

This means only mutation of one base changed the gene in organism B and also its product called protein.

Hope it help!
