Answer:
Surprising
Explanation:
This is surprising because the total number of planets in our solar system are nine which revolve around a central star i.e sun in different orbital paths.
Also, out of 9 nearly four planets i.e Mercury, Earth, Venus and Mars are terrestrial i.e having some land forms. Out of remaining 5 non terrestrial planets nearly four planets are gas planets (Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Saturn) and these planets are distantly positioned from the central star
Hence, the given discovery is surprising
Answer: The correct answer is D) Some energy in each trophic level is used for life processes.
Food chain represents the flow of energy through various living organisms (which lie at different trophic levels) in an ecosystem. The energy flows from one trophic level to the next and it is decreased with subsequent trophic levels.
As per the law of 10% energy transfer, only 10 % of the energy is transferred from one level to the next as the rest of the energy at every trophic level is utilized in various metabolic processes like respiration, digestion, excretion and also liberated as heat in the surrounding.
Due to this, the energy available at any trophic level is less than the previous trophic level.
Answer:
Since there is presence of excess tryptophan, the trp operon will be switched off, since the bacterial need not to synthesize.
Explanation:
Understand the following.
The trp operon is a group of gene that encode biosynthetic enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan.
The transcription gene in the operon is switched off when the tryptophan is in excess but is switched on by the bacterium when the tryptophan is low, so that more tryptophan can be produced.
Adaptation? Their size plays a role in this, and size is sometimes an adaptation.
