What species concepts is not very useful in defining plant species because some plant groups readily hybridize with other plant

groups?
Biology

matrenka [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The <u>biological species concept</u> is not very useful in defining plant species.

Explanation:

The biological species concept says that <em>species are population groups that, in a real or potential way, can reproduce and that </em><em>are reproductively isolated from other groups.</em>

<em>Individuals belonging to a species cannot reproduce with members of other species. </em>

This biological concept has limitations. Its application might present difficulties in concern with asexual reproduction species, such as bacteria, rotifer, cnidarians, plants, and etcetera.

Besides, this concept cannot be applied to the past because it is difficult to deduce reproductive capability between extinct species.

Finally, this concept is not adequate in concern to hybridization zones, something to be expected considering evolutionary processes. This is why this concept has been less accepted by botanists, as some plant species hybridize with other species. For example, species Quercus grisea and Quercus gambelii have overlapping ranges in the southwestern United States. Hybrids showing variation in leaf shape and other traits have been found in many places in this area.

A scientist isolated the Hepatitis B surface protein gene and introduced it into the DNA of a banana plant. The scientist tested
omeli [17]

Answer:

A. The gene for surface protein was transcribed and translated.

Explanation:

Because all living organisms use the same genetic code, it is possible to express genes from one organism in the other. In this case, the DNA sequence that corresponds to the hepatitis B surface protein gene has been inserted into the banana, and the protein is expressed.

For the protein to be expressed, the gene must have been successfully transcribed into an mRNA by the banana plant machinery. This mRNA has then been translated into a protein that means the hepatitis B surface protein is now present in the cell.
