Lions and Tigers are the most similar of the "Big Cats". Why are Lions and Tigers so similar?

Biology
1 answer:
Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B. Because lions and tigers have many of the same genes.

Explanation:

You can rule out A, since all big cats and other predatory animals must hunt to survive.

C can be ruled out, as all animals have roughly the same cells.

D can be ruled out as well, since all animal cells have the same organelles (essentially the same reason C can be ruled out.)

That leaves us with option B. B is the most likely answer, as lions and tigers share most of their DNA with one another.

How does the virus use a host cell to make copies of itself
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

I wasn't quite sure what virus you were referring to in your question, but here's a general answer: Viruses use their host cells' machinery to replicate themselves.

If they are a specific type of virus known as a retrovirus, they have the ability to use the host cells' enzymes to change the RNA contained within the virus into DNA (via some type of replication I suppose).

In other cases, if they contain DNA instead of RNA (that is, the virus), they can use the host cell's machinery to create RNA via enzymes involved in transcription and/or they can incorporate that DNA into the host cell's DNA. This is part of a type of viral replication cycle known as the lysogenic cycle.

In another type of viral replication cycle known as the lytic cycle, the virus simply has itself and its genome duplicated until the host cell bursts, releasing the viral material. Here, again, the virus uses the host cell's machinery to replicate itself.

Use this portion of a dichotomous key for tree identification to answer the question.
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

They are nonlobed, simple leaves and are attached oppositely on the branch.

Explanation:

A dichotomous key is a tool you use in biology to know the identity of things in nature such as trees,flowers, fish or even rocks. This key has choices that follow each other in a progressive manner, where one choice led to the other until you identify the item.In this case, to identify Dogwood, you follow the below steps;

1b. Broad leaf = Step 2

2b. Simple leaf = Step 7

7a. Leaf bases attached opposite each other on branch = Step 8

8b. Leaves not lobed = Step 9

9b. Leaves not heart shaped = Dogwood

The key is (1b,2b,7a,8b,9b)
