Answer:

Genus = Elephas

Species = maximus

Explanation:

Carolus Linnaeus, who is considered to be the FATHER OF TAXONOMY for his immense contribution to the classification of living organisms. Carolus Linnaeus between the year 1735 and 1758, developed a scientific system of naming organisms using two-way naming system called BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE.

The two Latin names given to organisms were derived from their generic and specific epithet i.e. one of the names is GENUS and the other SPECIES. According to this question, the scientific name using the binomial naming system for Indian elephant is Elephas maximus. This means that Elephas is the part that refers to GENUS while maximus is the part that refers to SPECIES.

Which of the processes are coupled (i.e. LINKED) in prokaryotic organisms but uncoupled (i.e. UNLINKED) in eukaryotic organisms?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Transcription & translation (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Prokaryotic organisms do not have membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, thus the process of transcription & translation occurs in the cytoplasm. Also because of the need for rapid life cycle, the mRNA molecules start to be made, & their ribosomes are ready to start making proteins more rapidly than Eukaryote, thus the process of the couple is quicker.

In eukaryotic organisms, transcription process start (happens) inside the nucleus of the cell and translation process can't start until the mRNA is transported out from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.

Biologists surveying the bacterial flora of Yellowstone National Park, particularly populations located in the park’s famous hot
Goshia [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B

Explanation:

The data collected on the bacterial species in the Yellowstone national park involved:

1. habitat characteristics

2.DNA of bacteria from each population

3. compared with other species of the park

Based on these features, the biologist could apply all the types of species concept like ecological species concept which allows the study of the species from the same niche.

Also, they compared the DNA of the species of the bacteria and compared them which allows to trace the evolutionary patterns and showing the phylogenetic relationship.

Since bacteria do not reproduce by the sexual reproduction, therefore, a biologist cannot apply the biological species concept which states that species can be called species which can reproduce only with the closely rated species only or the individual of the same species.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
