Answer:

c. have changed the behavior of elk.

Explanation:

Wolves were reintroduced into Yellowstone Park in 1995. Prior to this time, they were a major predator in the park. Their reintroduction after a decade resulted in a change in the behavior of the Elk which now had a large population in the park and appeared in large herds.

The Elk's behavior has also changed as they do not move into farther thickets so as not to be attacked by wolves. Also, they no longer move to open fields where they grazed as herds to avoid being preyed upon by lions. Vegetation is now restored due to this change in behavior of the Elk.

A change in the morphology of the leaves generated can frequently be used to detect when an apical meristem transition from the juvenile to the mature vegetative phase.

<h3>Apical meristem: What is it?</h3>

The growth zone within the tips of new shoots and leaves as well as the root tips of plants is known as the apical meristem. One of three meristem types, or tissues that can differentiate into distinct cell types, is the apical meristem. Plant growth takes place in the meristem tissue.

Apical growth is defined as taking place at the top and bottom of the plant. While lateral meristems are found between branches, intercalary meristems grow in girth like those of woody plants. The apical meristem is essential for expanding both the roots' and leaves' access to light energy and nutrients. For plants to succeed, they need to grow in both of these directions.

A colleague gives you two tubes containing membrane fractions from an animal cell lysate. One tube contains the plasma membrane

OLga [1]

Answer:

B) a higher protein to lipid ratio.

Explanation:

The cell membrane of eukaryotes is known to be a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. This implies that the first tube will contain a higher amount of lipids.

The membrane of the mitochondria is slightly different from the cell membrane in which its protein to lipid ratio is higher, containing a large number of integral proteins.

Julie has been working in the laboratory with a new antibiotic. First, she placed an

frez [133]

Answer:

contractile vacuole.

Explanation:

Contractile vacuole is an organelle which is damaged from the antibiotic and as a result the cell burst. The main function of contractile vacuole is to regulates the quantity of water inside the cell. If the contractile vacuole is damaged so it does not regulate water required by the cell as a result more water enters inside the cell which results in the bursting of the cell.

A female fly that has miniature wings and sepia eyes is crossed with a male that has normal wings and is homozygous for red eyes

Eduardwww [97]

Answer and Explanation:

The gene that expresses the size of the wing is X-linked. The dominant allele expresses long wings, XM, while the recessive allele expresses miniature wings, Xm.

The gene that expresses the color of the eyes is autosomal. The dominant allele expresses red color, S, and the recessive allele expresses sepia color, s.

A female fly that has miniature wings and sepia eyes (XmXm ss) is crossed with a male that has normal wings and is homozygous for red eyes (XMY SS).

The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2.
