Answer:
DNA:
- is a single molecule that can be over 10,000,000 nucleotides long
- is usually double stranded
- includes the base thymine
- is the genome for prokaryotic organisms
RNA:
- can be translated into a protein
- is usually single stranded
- includes ribose sugar
- is a single molecule that can form a complex secondary structure
Explanation:
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary genetic material of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, while RNA is the genetic material of many viruses. DNA is a double helix molecule composed of four types of nucleotides: a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine), a five-carbon sugar (i.e., deoxyribose), and a phosphate group. On the other hand, RNA is usually a single-stranded molecule whose nucleotides contain ribose sugars and Uracil bases replace Thymine bases. During translation, a type of RNA molecule referred to as messenger RNA (mRNA) is used as template to direct the synthesis of a polypeptide chain (protein). This RNA molecule can fold to form stable double-stranded RNA hairpins (i.e., secondary structures).
Answer:
In science, accepted theories do not represent absolute truths. A scientific theory is accepted when there is much evidence available that support its statements, but new lines of evidence can modify original presumptions
Explanation:
A scientific theory is a plausible explanation of a particular phenomenon of the natural world, which has been many times tested and verified by using the scientific method. The accepted theories are progressively modified (or even overturned) as new lines of evidence emerge. In consequence, a scientific theory is composed of statements that we consider as truths regarding the available evidence, but we have no absolute certainty that such statements are true. The ability to self-correct is fundamental in science and it happens when we discover that the original statements of a scientific theory were wrong, thereby new lines of evidence allow us to correct the error and/or develop new scientific theories.
Based on the description of events, being that the lizard population appears to increase as soon as the snake population decreases, it appears that the snakes prey on the lizards. This suggests that the snake is a keystone species. A keystone species is one that has a dramatic effect on maintaining the balance of an ecosystem. As soon as the snake population decreases, major changes occur to the ecosystem, such as the lizard population increasing.
Therefore, the answer is D: <span>The snake is a keystone species in the ecosystem.</span>
I know the first two for the fill in:
1. I believe it's energy
2. Diaphragm
Multiple choice:
1. I believe it's 3, trachea
2. I think it's 3, respiration
There's quite a lot of questions, but I hope this helps :)
Prokaryotes divide by binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction in which a cell divides into two cells with identical genetic information.
Explanation:
Binary fission and mitosis can be viewed as the same principle of asexual reproduction to give out two identical cells. However, the major difference between the two is that binary fission is to prokaryotes and mitosis is to eukaryotes. Remember that prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus (they have a nucleoid) hence binary fission does not involve the dividing of the nucleus. Mitosis does.
Sexual reproduction is responsible for creating variation in offspring especially due to the process of meiosis in gamete development and subsequent fertilization of two gametes from different parents.
