Answer:
B - invasive species
Explanation:
Invasive species are species that are not native to a particular habitat but are introduced into that habitat intentionally or by accident.
The Burmese python was released in Florida (where it is not a native species). Because it is not from Florida, it does not have any natural predators there, and it can seriously damage the ecosystems by preying on organisms that have no adaptations against the new predator.
The sequence of the template DNA strand of the mRNA transcript of UGGCACUCCAG is ACCGTGAGGTC. This is from the pairing of U to A, G to C, C to G, A to T and T to U. In this case, the abbreviations refer to the nitrogen bases that are the biulding blocks of the DNA strands.
Answer: 1) a. decrease 2) b. increase
Explanation: 1) If the rabbit population declined and it is the main source of food for the lynx, the lynx population would decrease because it wouldn’t have enough to eat. 2) Since the lynx is a predator of rabbits, but all the lynx were killed then the rabbit population would increase because they aren’t being eaten.
<span>My pea plant has an unknown genotype for flowers, whether it has two dominant traits for white flowers (WW) or one dominant and one recessive (Ww) leading to white flowers; therefore I am doing a testcross in order to determine the genotype of my pea plant. The best plant to do this with is one that has a phenotype of purple flowers (ww) - that is, it is homozygous for the recessive trait.
If I use a homozygous recessive plant, I know exactly what its genotype is. I don't have to worry about whether it's got one or two dominant alleles; I know that at least half of my alleles are going to be the recessive w.
This makes identifying the offspring's genotype very simple. If I find that the offspring have at least some purple flowers among them, I know that my original plant had to be Ww; that is it had to have one dominant and one recessive allele for the flower color gene. If, however, all of the offspring are white flowers, I know that my original pea plant had both dominant alleles (WW).</span>
Answer: B
Explanation:
"Furthermore, ectomycorrhizal fungi can slow down decomposition, a natural process that returns carbon from forest soils back to the atmosphere. In these ways, ectomycorrhizal fungi enhance the ability of forests to keep carbon locked up in trees and soils, and out of the atmosphere."
