A set of identical twins are together in an introductory biology class. The unit of study is DNA and its structure. The teacher

describes the structure of DNA and its role in gene expression over the course of the lesson. Which components of the structure and expression of DNA would be identical for these particular twins that account for their similar appearance? Select ALL that apply. A) The timing of the DNA replication is identical for all cells in these students. B) The environmental influence of gene expression is identical for both students. C) The alleles that are carried on the chromosomes are identical for both students. D) All of the genes carried on the DNA are always expressed for both of these students. E) The order of the bases on the interior of the DNA molecule is identical.

In identical twins, alleles are identical and the order of the bases on the interior of the DNA molecule is identical (Options C and E). It is because genetic material is identical.

<h3>What are identical twins?</h3>

Identical twins refer to individuals produced by the same zygote cell, i.e., they are monozygotic twins.

Since these individuals are produced by the same zygote cell, their genetic material (DNA) will be identical.

Identical twins are useful to understand the exact role of genetics and environment in a given phenotypic trait.

Which statements accurately describe the roles of decomposers in the carbon cycle?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, here's the complete question;

Which statements accurately describe the roles of decomposers in the carbon cycle? Check all that apply.

-Decomposers release carbon dioxide into the air as waste.

-Decomposers remove carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis.

-Decomposers break down the remains of dead plants and animals.

-Decomposers return carbon compounds to the soil.

-Decomposers use carbon to make food molecules.

The correct answer is;

Decomposers release carbon dioxide into the air as waste.

Decomposers break down the remains of dead plants and animals.

Decomposers return carbon compounds to the soil.

Explanation:

In the earth, all living things are made up of carbon. Carbon cycle is the process in which carbon travels from the atmosphere into living things in the earth and then returned into the atmosphere.  Carbon is released into the atmosphere through processes like respiration, decomposition, combustion etc. The carbon cycle explains how carbon is stored, made available to living things and replaced on earth. Plants absorb carbon in the form of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to produce food (glucose) and release oxygen in a process called photosynthesis. When animals feed on these plants , the carbon is transferred to them and thus passes it along the food chain. During respiration, animals release carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. When the organisms eventually die, the carbon from them is put back into the atmosphere by decomposers so that other living organisms can use it. Decomposers break down dead organisms , releases carbon dioxide through cellular respiration and enriches the soil with nutrients.  The examples of decomposers are bacteria, fungi and worms. Bacteria decomposes most types of organic matter. Fungi are the main decomposers in the forest as they break down wood and the cellulose in plant cell walls. Decomposers are very important because they release carbon locked up in the dead organisms back into the atmosphere and without carbon dioxide in the atmosphere plants can not produce glucose and oxygen.

"Early philosophers and naturalists used (FILL IN THE BLANK) characteristics to classify living things."
Zanzabum
Perhaps the answer is "physical characteristics". I am simply making an educated guess, however I do know early philosophers classified organisms into two groups, Plants and Animals, and identified them based on physical characteristics.
