The ___ biome is characterized by moderate temperatures and high quantities of precipitation.
diamong [38]

Answer:

The temperate rain forest.

Explanation:

Temperate rain forests are similar in structure and precipitation amounts to a tropical rain forest. The difference is in the location and temperature of each. Tropical rain forests are located on and near the equator, and are incredibly warm and humid, with large amounts of precipitation. Temperate rain forests are found north of the Tropic of Cancer and have moderate temperature and humidity levels. The way to remember the difference is to notice that Temperate is a combination of 'moderate' and 'temperature' and can be said to mean "moderate temperature". I hope this is the answer you were looking for!

Answer:

(A): DNA and protein

(B): The case for proteins appeared stronger until the 1940s, especially since biochemists had identified them as a class of macromolecules with great heterogeneity and function specificity, essential requirements for the hereditary material. Moreover, little was known about nucleic acids, the physical and chemical properties of which seemed far too uniform to account for the multitude of specific hereditary traits of each organism

(C): Virulent strains are pathogenic (causing disease), whereas non-virulent strains are non-pathogenic (harmless) strains.

Those mutated genes are most commonly recessive. Females have two X chromosomes so they can have a chromosome with the mutated gene and one with the healthy gene. The healthy gene is dominant so the disease won't manifest, and the woman is only a carrier. Males have only one X chromosome and an Y chromosome. If they have the mutated gene on the X chromosome they won't have another X chromosome with the healthy gene.

To summarize, men can't be carriers and they only need one copy of the mutated X-linked gene while women need two copies of the mutated gene.
