The genotype at the Q gene is Homozygous
Answer:
A,B and E
Explanation:
- I+: I refers to the lac repressor, the + indicates that the repressor is functional
- P+: P refers to the promoter region and the + indicates that the promoter is functional
- Oc: O refers to the operator region, but the Oc indicates that the operator is constitutive ie. that it is always on/ can't be turned off.
- Z-: Z refers to the LacZ gene which produces β-galactosidase. Z- indicates that this gene is non-functional
- Y+: Y refers to the LacY gene which produces the permease protein. Y+ indicates that this gene is functional
So based on the breakdown above:
- C is not true because the lac operon is an inducible system. The operator needs to be able to be repressed. In this case the operator is constitutive (always on) which is not the correct form.
- D is not true because Z-, no β-galactosidase is produced.
Only A, B and E apply.

Villi are finger-like projections.They increase the surface area of inner walls and helps alot in absorption of digested food.
Explanation:
One snapping turtle weighs 40 pounds, so 10 snapping turtles in a pond have a total weight of 400 pounds. The turtles eat largemouth bass (1 trophic level below them), and the bass in turn eat minnows (2 trophic levels below the turtles). So since only 10% of energy is passed in each trophic level, we would need:
(x lbs of minnows)(10%)(10%) = 400 lbs of snapping turtles
x = 40000 lbs of minnows (Choice C)
