Rainforests are habitats for many plants and animals. However, habitat fragmentation is occurring because of human activity. When a rainforest is fragmented, a large area is divided into small patches that are isolated from each other. Species living in these patches are more likely to become extinct as a result of overcrowding and competition.

Which of the following is the best way to minimize the effects of habitat fragmentation on the biodiversity of a rainforest ecosystem?
A.
constructing boundaries and fences around each habitat patch
B.
building natural green pathways across the original habitat to join all the patches together
C.
building concrete roads across the original habitat to join all of the patches together
D.
introducing new species that compete with the existing species in each habitat patch

Answers

Answer 1

Building natural green pathways across the original habitat to join all the patches together. Option B

What is rain forest?

A rainforest is characterized by towering, largely evergreen trees and heavy rainfall. Some rainforests have existed in their current form for at least 70 million years, making them the oldest existing ecosystems on Earth.

Hence we can see that the best way to  minimize the effects of habitat fragmentation on the biodiversity of a rainforest ecosystem is building natural green pathways across the original habitat to join all the patches together.

to produce

Answers

Answer:

In most cells, DNA directs the production of a molecule of mRNA which then enters a ribosome. The ribosome produces the final product, a protein. Retroviruses do the opposite. They use the enzyme reverse transcriptase to use a template of mRNA to produce DNA.

Explanation:

The central dogma of molecular biology describes how a cell uses its genetic information to synthesize a protein. The first step called 'transcription' consists of using an RNA polymerase enzyme and a fragment of DNA (i.e., gene) as a template to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually a messenger RNA (mRNA). Subsequently, the genetic code in the mRNA sequence is read by the ribosomes in order to produce a protein, a process known as 'translation'. Retroviruses are viruses that have the ability to integrate into the host genome by using a reverse transcriptase enzyme that allows reverse transcription of mRNA to complementary DNA, which then integrates into the host's genome.

The correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.

What is gene expression?

It is the process by which cells produce protein from DNA molecules. DNA produces RNA which contains codes to produce amino acids.

The mRNA enters the ribosome which produced protein using the codons of mRNA.

Retroviruses have special machinery to produce the DNA from mRNA.

Therefore, the correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.

Explanation:

The TAS2R38 gene encodes a receptor protein that influences the ability to taste bitterness. The gene has two alleles: a dominant, wild-type allele that enables an individual (taster) to taste bitterness and a recessive, mutant allele that interferes with the ability of an individual (nontaster) to taste bitterness. In a sample of 2,400 people, 1,482 were found to have the dominant (taster) phenotype. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, approximately how many individuals in the sample are expected to be heterozygous for TAS2R38

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 1133.

Explanation:

According to H-W equilibrium;

p2 +2pq + q2 = 1 ........... eq.1   and

(p+q)2 = 1 ..............eq.2

Here q = frequency of the recessive allele,

and p = frequency of the dominant allele in the population

The genotype of p2 + 2pq shows the dominant(taster) phenotype.

The genotype of q2 shows the recessive(non-taster) phenotype.

q^2 = (2400 - 1482)/2400

= 0.3825  

= 0.618

using eq. 2 we get p= 1-q

=0.382

2pq = No. of heterozygotes/2400

No. of heterozygotes = 1133.1648

Answers

The correct option is :

Arteries don't have valves because back flow of blood isn't possible due to high pressure, but blood in veins doesn't have high pressure just like arteries, so to stop backflow of blood, veins have valves.

The diagram below represents some stages in the life cycle of humans. The numbers in the diagram represent various processes in the cycle.




Identify the process(es) represented by 1 and 2. State how these processes (1 and 2) affect the amount of genetic information provided by a parent to its offspring.

Answers

Answer:

The diagram below represents some stages in the life cycle of humans. The numbers in the diagram represent various processes in the cycle.

1. "The processes reduce the amount of genetic information from each parent by half."

During sexual reproduction, a specialized cell division process called meiosis occurs. Meiosis involves two consecutive divisions, resulting in the production of four haploid cells (gametes) from a diploid cell.

2. "Each parent only contributes half of the genetic information that is contained in his or her own cells."

As mentioned earlier, meiosis results in the formation of haploid gametes. Each gamete contains only one set of chromosomes, which is half the number found in the parent's diploid cells.

During meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up, and genetic recombination occurs between them, shuffling and exchanging genetic information.

3. "Each egg (or each sperm) will carry only half of the genetic information contained in the parent's body cells."

This statement reiterates that gametes (eggs or sperm) are haploid cells containing only one set of chromosomes. When a cell undergoes meiosis to produce gametes, it divides twice, resulting in four cells with half the genetic information of the parent's body cells.

A directional flow of electric charge

Answers

Answer:

The direction of an electric current is by convention the direction in which a positive charge would move. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires in the opposite direction.

Conventionally, a positive charge would go in the same direction as an electric current. As a result, the battery's positive terminal receives less current in the external circuit than its negative counterpart. Actually, electrons would go in the reverse direction across the cables.

What is electric current ?

A stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, traveling through an electrical conductor or a vacuum is known as an electric current. The net rate of electric charge flowing through a surface or into a control volume is how it is calculated.

The cell phone, trains, ships, refrigerator, and the motors in appliances like food processors all run on electricity. To be useful, electric energy must be converted into other forms of energy like heat, light, or mechanical.

Conventionally, a positive charge would go in the same direction as an electric current. As a result, the battery's positive terminal receives less current in the external circuit than its negative counterpart.
