Answer:

A) Chromosomes are made of DNA

C) Alleles are the different forms of a gene that can exist

D) Chromosomes contain genes that control the inheritance of traits.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are long molecules of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contain part (or all) of the genetic material of an organism. Humans contain 46 chromosomes organized in 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes, X and Y). Moreover, a gene is a physical segment of a chromosome that contains the information to encode a protein. Alleles are different forms of a gene  (i.e., gene variants) that may be caused by mutations or genetic recombination. Humans are diploid organisms (2N: 46), and therefore we have two copies of each gene (alleles), one on each homologous chromosome.

Which level of organization is characterized by a group of cells that work together to perform a common function? i need help wi
mamaluj [8]

Organization in organisms is like this:

cells => tissues => organs => organ systems => organisms

Since we are talking about a group of cells, this would be a tissue. Don't let the word 'function' confuse you. Tissues do functions as well as an entire organ or organ system.

It is helpful to use the flow chart when asked questions like these, so make sure to memorize it! It will be helpful in any level of science.

I hope this helps!

A study is being done to test the affects of habitat space on the size of fish populations. different sized aquariums are set up
qwelly [4]
Although not specified, I am assuming that you want to identify the different variables and groups of this case. To answer this, the different typical factors that make up an experimental set up include: 1) dependent and 2) independent variables; 3) controlled variables; as well as the 4) control and 5) experimental group.

The dependent variable in this case is: the size of the population. While the independent variable is: the habitat space. Controlled variables in this experiment include: type and amount of food, cleanliness of the aquarium, and water temperature. The experimental group are simply the fish being observed. There are no controlled groups in this case depending on your definition. Controlled groups are usually the reference point or standard in experimental setups but this experiment wants to look at the differences of the goldfish with each other and not necessarily to a one particular goldfish and hence no controlled group.

The dependent variable is called as such because it is the one that changes depending on the factors given and is usually the one being observed. The independent variable is named as such because it remains the same throughout the experiment.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

In compare to eukaryotes,prokaryotes are morphologically simpler,more evolutionary primitive,less sensitive to physical environment.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are unicellular organism which don't possess cell organelle like nucleus,mitochondria,Endoplasmic reticulum,golgi body, etc.

They are the first living organism in the primitive earth and the genetic components are located in the cytoplasm which is enclosed by cell membrane.

prokaryotes contain 3 domains that are Archaea, bacteria and eukarya.

The cytoplasm is enclosed by cell membrane.

Molecular studies have reveal that eukaryotes are evolved from prokaryotes.

Some prokaryotes bear long projection which helps them for locomotion,called as flagellum.This is present in gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
