Answer:
Our cells are not poisoned to death because it is metabolized by our organs.
Explanation:
- Toxins are any chemical products that damages the functioning of our body.
- To be more specific, human body do not produce any toxins. They only discrete the waste materials that are easily secreted by our body through the metabolic activities.
- Organs like liver and kidneys are responsible for fighting against the harmful waste products and toxins by throwing it out from our body.
Answer:
D. Plasmids are nucleic acids which can pass on traits
Explanation:
A Nucleic acid is one of the four biomolecule polymers in living systems. It is made up of monomeric units called Nucleotides. RNA and DNA are the two nucleic acids in existence and they function in storage and expression of genetic information.
According to the question, a colony of bacteria that can break plastics were mixed with the colony that can't break plastics. The two different colonies engage plamids, which conferred the ability to break plastics to some of the colonies that previously couldn't. This tells us that the ability to break plastics in the certain bacteria colony is GENETIC.
If the trait is genetic, the plasmid must be a nucleic acid because of the ability to genetically pass on traits. Note that, a plasmid is an extra-chromosomal DNA (nucleic acid) capable of replicating on its own. Hence, plasmids are nucleic acids which can pass on traits.
The genes that survive and flourish in a species are the strong ones. Strong genes evolve into the next generation, while weaker ones die.
