Answer:

by phenotypically identifying plants unable (or with an altered ability) to synthesize auxins. This approach is called reverse genetics

Explanation:

Reverse genetics is a strategy widely used in molecular genetics aimed at analyzing the function of target genes by identifying defective phenotypes of one or more organisms following the disruption of the gene. In this case, a mutagenesis approach (i.e., irradiation with X-rays) was used to induce mutations in the gene/s involved in auxin production. Subsequently, the resulting mutant phenotypes, i.e., plants with an altered ability to synthesize auxin, can be used to reveal the biological function of individual (mutated) gene sequences.

The correct answer is it lives inside or on a host.

A is incorrect because a parasite steals from the host, without giving anything in return. Much like a leech

C is incorrect because leeches almost always use their host as a food source

D is incorrect because parasites can often dig beneath the host's skin to be hidden from sight

Describe an animal behavior that you hypothesize is advantageous to an animal’s survival. Discuss the ways in which you believe
Hunter-Best [27]
Male animal aggression during mating season. The evolutionary purpose of most species is to repopulate and keep the species alive long enough to become the highest being it can evolve into (We humans have done the best at this so far). So, every male in a species gets aggressive during mating season because the stronger ones are most likely to have healthy offspring. So, when animals fight they are fighting to keep their species alive. If you think about it who wouldn't want to be responsible for the evolutionary breakthrough that kept a species alive over thousands of years?  hope this helped.

nika2105 [10]

The inner lining of blood vessels is called the inner lining of blood vessels is called Endocardium .

The endocardium is the innermost layer of tissue that lines the chambers of the heart. Its cells are embryologically and biologically similar to the endothelial cells that line blood vessels. The endocardium also provides protection to the valves and heart chambers.
