Answer:

D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.

Explanation:

The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population,  are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the  alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.

Select the appropriate shape for the given volume formula. V = pi r squared h. V = four-thirds pi r cubed. V = l w h. V = one-th
devlian [24]

Explanation:

          Volume of a cylinder = \pi r² h

          Volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3}  \pi r³

          Volume of cone =  \frac{1}{3} \pi r² h

          Volume of cuboid = l w h

Where:

     r is the radius of the body measured

     h is the height

     l is the length

    w is the width

     

The volume of a body is the space it occupies and it refers to its size.

it is measured in cubic meters or cubic centimeters.

What cellular process(es) is/are responsible for the increase in protein content associated with the gap phases of the cell cycl
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Protein/enzyme synthesis

Explanation:

<em>The process of synthesis of protein in the cell is mainly responsible for the increase in the protein content of the cell.</em>

<em>The process which is also known as the translation process of gene expression takes place at the G1 and G2 phases of the interphase of the cell cycle.</em>

During protein synthesis, mRNA synthesized in the nucleus are transported to the cytoplasm and the genetic codes on the mRNA are translated into their respective amino acids linked together by polypeptide bonds. The protein are then folded in specific ways for specific enzymes.
