Answer:
Increase the genetic diversity by introducing other subspecies of cougar to the population.
Explanation:
- Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic makeup of species. It includes the number of species that have differences within the species and is distinguished from the genetic variability.
- The genetic diversity services allow for the population to adapt to the environment and continue to generate more. Thus introducing the subspecies of cougar can be done to save the species from getting extinct.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Somatic cells are diploid (46 chromosomes)
Gamete cells are haploid ( 23 chromosomes)
1. Answer: A
Explanation: For a cell to form proteins, the specific types of proteins are coded for by the genes in DNA (found in the chromosomes of the nucleus). To produce proteins, the genes are first transcribed by RNA polymerase to form messenger-RNA. The mRNA is then translated into proteins by ribosomes in the cytoplasm of the cell.
2. Answer: B
Explanation: Translation of genes into proteins is dependent on the sequence of nucleotides. They are translated in sequences of 3 nucleotides known as codons. Therefore adding a nucleotide on a piece of DNA causes what is referred to as a frame-shift mutation. The 3 sequences (of codons) is interrupted and shifted by one nucleotide. Therefore, the codons change and the amino acids translated will also change.
3. Answer: A
Expanation: Producers are significant in a food chain because they incorporate the energy of the sun into the food chain. This is why they are at the base of the food chain and have the largest biomass. They are consumed by primary consumers which are consumed by secondary consumers which are consumed by tertiary consumers and so on.
4. Answer: D
Explanation: Plants are consumed by herbivores. Therefore, a decrease in plant population due to drought was resulted to decrease in herbivore population. This is due to stiff competition by the herbivores for the scarce plant population. Carnivores consume herbivores. Due to a decrease in the herbivore population, then the carnivore population would also decrease.
5. Answer: A
Explanation: Burning of fossil fuels emits carbon dioxide gas which is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gas traps infrared wavelength of lights hence warming up the atmosphere, causing global warming. Reduction in use of fossil fuels will hence alleviate an increase in global temperature hence protect coral in the oceans from bleaching.
Answer:
Flood barriers are very affordable, lightweight metal barriers may be installed in different places and taken away when water disappears.
Explanation:
Answer:
I think that it's false
Explanation:
The reason is because there is a thing called a 'Water Cycle'. It is basically the continuous movement of water on the surface of the Earth.
