Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Resistance

Explanation:

The ability of any organism in a population to tolerate a chemical like insecticide, pesticide or antibiotic which is designed to kill it or slow its reproduction is called resistance.

For example, the antibiotic resistance is seen in some bacteria like MRSA(Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). They gain this resistance because they have some variant traits in their genome which provide them resistance against these chemicals.  

These individual are selected through natural selection when the environmental condition changes and become adverse. So the correct answer is resistance.

Answer:

B. 0.50

Explanation:

The estimated frequency of allele A in the gene pool is 0.50. Allele A is a variant form of gene which has different forms located at same position. Allele frequency determines common presence of genetic locus of an allele in the population. It is calculated by dividing the number of common allele that appears in the population by total number of copies of genes.
