Elephant seals are abundant in their population size but they have low genetic diversity within their species due to overhunting
Anastasy [175]
<h2>Genetic diversity </h2>

Explanation:

If the environment changes, the species runs the risk of not having the genetic diversity to be adaptable to that change and could go extinct

  • Genetic diversity is the diversity  or genetic variability within species
  • The huge variety of different gene sets defines an individual or a whole population's ability to tolerate stress from any given environmental factor
  • While some individuals might be able to tolerate an increased load of pollutants in their environment, others carrying different genes might suffer from infertility or even die under the exact same environmental conditions;the former will continue to live in the environment the latter will either have to leave it or die
  • Any change in the environment - natural or human induced causes a selection of events that only the fittest survive
  • In case of elephant seals,overhunting reduces the sum of genes available,thus leaving behind a population that is less capable of tolerating any further natural or human disturbances in environment
  • The loss of genetic diversity within a species can result in the loss of useful and desirable traits

A 20-year-old male shoots his hand with a nail gun while replacing roofing shingles. Which of the following cell types would be
Leni [432]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. Neutrophils

Explanation:

Neutrophils are the cells that first reach to the infection side and kills the bacteria. Neutrophils comprises most part of WBCs approximately 50-70% of total WBCs. Neutrophils kills the foreign bacteria by engulfing them and this process is called phagocytosis.

The engulfed bacteria is called phagosome and phagosome then fuse with lysosome making phagolysosome. Now fused lysosome secrete lytic enzymes like proteases, lipases and glycosidases which kills the engulfed bacteria by digesting them.

So neutrophils will be the first cells migrates to prevent bacterial infection in the hand of 20 year old boy who shoots his hand with nail gun.

Which of the following statements explains how N-formylmethionine (fMet) is only associated with the 5' AUG initiation codon and
Scilla [17]

Answer:

  • Only fMet-tRNA(fMet) can bind first to the P site in the ribosome. ( A )
  • There are more than one tRNA with the 5' CAU 3' anticodon. ( B )
  • The N-formyl group attached to methionine prevents fMet from entering  interior positions in a polypeptide. ( D )

Explanation:

The statements that explains how N--formyl methionine (fMet) is only associated with the 5' AUG initiation codon and not with internal AUG codons, given that methionine in both cases in encoded by an AUG in the mRNA are :

Only fMet-tRNA(fMet) can bind first to the P site in the ribosome. ( A )

There are more than one tRNA with the 5' CAU 3' anticodon. ( B )

The N-formyl group attached to methionine prevents fMet from entering  interior positions in a polypeptide. ( D )

While statement C is wrong.

Cilia are found in certain:__.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Cilia are found in certain a. protozoa.

In the field of biology, cilia can be described as thread-like projections which are membrane-bound, found in mammals and various microorganisms referred to as ciliates.

Protozoa are eukaryotic organisms that are single-celled. The protozoa can either live freely or choose a parasite to live in.

Cilia are present in certain protozoa in order to help the protozoa in movement. The cilia also help the protozoa in gathering food for nutrition. The cilia also make it possible for protozoa to attach to a surface. Sensations in a protozoa can also be generated through cilia.

The cilia cover the entire surface of the protozoa cell.
