Answer:
a. Biomagnification
Explanation:
Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.
For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.
The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.
Answer:
RNA
Explanation:
CRISPR system was discovered by a Japanese scientist. Naturally <u>bacteria and many other prokaryotes</u> have <u>CRISPR system in their genome</u> which they use as a<u> self defense against a pathogen</u> which is invading them. It consists of<u> inter spaced, short palindromic nucleotide repeats </u>which <u>encode a guide RNA (gRNA)</u>. This guide RNA (gRNA) recognizes the<u> target sequence</u> on the pathogen. The <u>gRNA is followed by Cas9 enzyme</u> which along with the gRNA plays a very important <u>role in breaking genome</u> of the pathogen. Once the target gene is cut down the rest of the DNA can be rejoined by<u> non homologous end joining. </u>
But nowadays, scientists are using this system for <u>genome editing</u> and <u>incorporating desired gene</u> between the two ends which are cut down by <u>CRISPR Cas9 system.</u>
The answer is option A)cyclins
It’s D, cognitive. Cognitive development has to do with the mind.
Answer:
The correct answer is - carboxyl group.
Explanation:
Lipids are one of the major macromolecules that are made up of fatty acid and carboxyl groups as two main parts of the molecules. The most common type of lipid is formed with the glycerol associated with the fatty acid chain.
In the provided structure the circled part is the carboxyl group with the long fatty acid chain. However, glycerol belongs to the alcohol group.
Thus, the correct answer is - carboxyl group.
