You are studying a population of wild coyotes and notice that every three years there is an epidemic of a bacterial disease. Whi

ch of the following best explains this periodic cycling of the disease?
a) New coyotes are continuously born into the population.
b) Coyotes are dying from other causes over time.
c) During an outbreak, the proportion of coyotes who are sick with the disease slowly falls as they recover.
d) Coyotes from other populations, who have already caught and recovered from the disease, immigrate into the study population.

I think the answer would have to be D.
The reason I think that this would have to be the answer is because Coyotes from different populations would have encountered disease and most likely grow immune to them (the ones that survived) ad those coyotes could migrate to the other population of coyotes and those coyotes would get that disease.

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

b. The enzyme and substrate would be stuck together.

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins whose active site binds to specific chemical reactants (i.e., substrates), thereby forming a complex that is similar to the interaction between a lock and its key. This active complex lowers the energy of the reaction and promotes a conformational change in the substrate to break down it into multiple products. When the enzyme contains mutations in its active site, the ability to bind the substrate is altered. In this case, the enzymatic reaction can't occur because the interaction enzyme-substrate doesn't produce an active complex.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Intrusive igneous rocks cool from magma slowly because they are buried beneath the surface, so they have large crystals. Extrusive igneous rocks cool from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so they have small crystals.

Archy [21]
1. DNA unzips in the nucleus.
RNA polymerase binds to the DNA sequence, separates the two strands and creates a single-stranded DNA molecule that will be transcripted. 

2. Transcription occurs.
Transcription is the first step of gene expression. During this process, a gene's DNA sequence is copied and a mRNA molecule is produced.

3. mRNA moves to the ribosome
The mRNA is then transferred from the nucleus to the ribosome, the organelle that serves as a site for protein synthesis.

4. Translation occurs
Translation is the process where a mRNA sequence into the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide (protein).

5. Protein assembled at ribosome.
Translation, meaning the formation of a protein, occurs on the ribosome.

George on one pair of his chromosomes has STRs of lengths 6 and 7, Stephen (his father) STRs of lengths 3 and 6, and Mary (his m
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Stephen is not his biological father.

Explanation:

DNA fingerprinting is a technique use to determine the DNA sequence of an individual organism. Short tandem repeats are unique among the individuals ans used to identify the individual in population.

The George DNA fingerprinting shows that he has STRs length of 6 and 7. Stephen's STRs does not match with his son George whereas Mary shows some similarities with George STRs. This indicates that Stephen is not the biological father of George because the biological father's STRs must match with the children STRs.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
