A haploid species has a gene on chromosome 2 which codes for lactase. In nature, four different alleles of the lactase gene have

been identified. How many different alleles could you find in the genome of a single individual of this species

Answer:

Haploid organisms have only one allele per <em>locus</em>

Explanation:

In haploid species, the number of alleles for a single <em>locus</em> always will be only one. Haploid species contain one complete set of chromosomes in their somatic cells. In nature, species are generally diploids but there are exceptions to this norm (e.g., male bees, ants and wasps are derived from an unfertilized egg). Consequently, in haploid organisms, the allelic and genotypic frequencies are the same. In this case, it is also important to note that the three remaining alleles will be distributed among the other haploid individuals in the population.

Stells [14]

Answer:

A. The number of cells that are dying is balanced by the number of new cells that are being formed.

C. Harmful waste products may be accumulating.

D. The cells are likely running out of nutrients.

Explanation:

During the stationary phase, the number of viable cells remains constant. This may be due to a balance between cell division and cell death wherein the total number of newly formed cells and the cells undergoing death are equal.

Nutrient limitation is one of the several factors that make the microbial cells to enter the stationary phase. Depletion of nutrients slows down the population growth.

Accumulation of toxic waste products as it occurs during the growth of anaerobic bacteria also adversely affects the population growth.

For example, the accumulation of lactic acid and other organic acids (by-products of anaerobic respiration) inhibits the growth of the population by making the medium acidic.

Ede4ka [16]
Epithelial cells are mainly used for protection; in the urinary tract, these tissue cells are used to protect the bladder from toxic urine. The tissue can also expand to hold larger quantities of urine.

The biodiversity of cultivated crops is currently under threat from industrial
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The wastes or run off of the industrial farming enters the water and nearby cultivated crops, this waste consist of chemicals and pesticides mostly, that are the cause of destruction of not only the cultivated crops but also the useful soil-borne rhizoshpere bacteria too. On the other hand climate change impacting from emission of greenhouse gases, increase air pollution and also cause deforestation. Such circumstances could all lead to the extinction of important crops.

In order to avoid these problems, proper waste management systems should be developed to dispose the waste of industries and others at area that is far from the population or cultivation. The climate change resulting from the pollution could be avoided by the use of filtered products for the smokes, so that filter could absorb harmful substances and the smoke released in air would not be that much toxic. Moreover, there is the need to identify and grow such crops that can adapt these environmental changes.
