In a 1973 essay with the same name, geneticist Theodosius Dobzhansky made famous the idea that nothing in biology makes sense ex

cept in the light of evolution. From a careful reading of The Serengeti Rules, one could also argue that nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of regulation. Do you agree or disagree with this claim

I agree with this claim because organisms interact with one another in an ecosystem, thereby regulating population sizes in the community.

  • The Serengeti Rules is a documentary film based on biologist Sean B. Carroll's book (2017). This book explains the balanced functioning of an ecosystem by exploring the discoveries of five pioneering scientists: Mary Power, Bob Paine, Tony Sinclair, John Terborgh, and Jim Estes.

  • The term 'Serengeti rules' is due to many of these rules were obtained by studying natural populations in the Serengeti National Park (Tanzania).

  • These rules are a set of simple ecological rules of nature that indicate how ecosystems work.  

  • The Serengeti rules explain how organisms interact with one another in the ecosystem, thereby regulating population sizes in the community.

  • Some key concepts of the Serengeti rules are as follow:
  1. Keynote species is a type of species whose activities govern the wellbeing of other species in the ecosystem.
  2. A trophic cascade is a phenomenon by which species impact other species even when they do not directly interact with each other.
  3. Downgrading refers to cascading effect of the removal of a species at the top of a food web (e.g., predators)

Assume that a given plasmid vector to be used in a cloning experiment contains 4000 base pairs of DNA. Assume also that the rest
Georgia [21]

Answer:

1000, 2000 and 3000.

Explanation:

The example given in the question is of a DNA with 4000 base pairs and it is being cut at 1000 pairs, 1500 pairs and 3000 pairs. So the lenghts of the segments that are cut from the original spiral are 1000, 500, 1500 and 1000 respectively. And the information that only the linear fragments are being produced is given to us in the question so the sizes of DNA expected would be 2000, 1000, 3000 and 2000 again respectively.

I hope this answer helps.

Is the phenol red indicator used to detect the amount of carbon dioxide or oxygen? Explain.​
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em><u>As the instructor, you supply the carbon source by blowing bubbles in phenol red. The carbon dioxide in your breath will dissolve in water to form carbonic acid, which lowers the pH of the solution. Phenol red turns yellow in a pH lower than 7, revealing in this case the presence of a carbon source.</u></em>
