D. The octupus population would decrease.
This is because if more sharks were in the ecosystem than they would feed on more octopus, decreasing the population of them.
Alcoholic fermentation; carbon dioxide. Alcoholic fermentation produces alcohol and carbon dioxide in bread. The alcohol evaporates during the baking process.
Cells, the basic unit of life, are derived from spontaneous generation.
It's not alive, nor is it even an organic compound.
- It cannot respond to stimuli (Responsiveness)
- It cannot secrete hormones (Secretion)
- It cannot send messages along a nervous system or anything similar (Conductivity)
- It cannot break down compounds to usable energy forms (Digestion)
- It cannot absorb broken down compounds as an energy source (Absorption)
- It cannot reproduce (Reproduction)
- It cannot grow--it has no cells (Growth)
- It cannot exchange gases between cells (Respiration)
- It cannot rid itself of waste material (Excretion)
Answer:
The correct answer is "9 cycles".
Explanation:
The minimum number of cycles necessary to replicate a fragment of DNA over 500 times is 9 cycles. In Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method, the fragments of DNA are doubled in each cycle. This means that after "n" cycles, the total number of fragments is given by the equation 2^n. In this case, after 9 cycles a total of 512 DNA fragments will be obtained, because 2^9 is equal to 512.
