The correct answer is option D. species.

It is the individuals of a species which can interbreed to produce fertile off springs. This concept is known as biological species concept. The individuals from different species cannot produce fertile off springs even if they mate. It happens because the eggs produced by the female of a particular species is compatible with the sperms of male of that particular species only. Even if through mating, sperm of a dog will reach the egg of a cat who belongs to another species, it will not be able to fuse with the egg. For fusion of egg and sperm their compatibility is must & they are compatible only if the male and female are of same species.

There are some exceptions to this concept like liger is an off spring which is produced when a male lion mates with a female tiger even though they both belong to different species. But, even though they are able to reproduce an off spring yet this off spring is not fertile.

Which of the following best explains how the light reactions of photosynthesis generate ATP?
frutty [35]

Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Rattlesnake venom contains a collection of different enzymes, from phospholipases (which hydrolyze phospholipids into fatty acid
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Lipid bilayer

Explanation:

Red blood cell is surrounded by a cell membrane that separates its interior from the surrounding medium. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer and consists of two layers of phospholipids. The polar heads of phospholipids make the surfaces of the cell membrane while their nonpolar tails are buried in its core.

The snake venom has phospholipase enzymes that digest the phospholipids into fatty acids. Digestion of phospholipids of the lipid bilayer of red blood cells would cause leakage of their content into the surroundings and loss of integrity of cells.

What are similarities and differences between the organization and structure of DNA in bacterial cells and in human cells?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Both human and bacteria cells contain DNA and both have a outer membrane that controls how materials come into and leave the cell.

Predominantly multicellular not in bacteria but in human body

*Cell contains a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles not in bacteria but in human body..

*DNA occurs in a circular form* in bacteria only..

* Ribosomes size in bacteria 70s and in human body 80s

*Capable of growth at temperatures greater than 80 C only in bacteria

*His tone proteins present in cell only in human body cells

* Operons present in DNA only in bacteria..

BOTH acids and bases A) turn red litmus blue. Eliminate B) are a component of soaps C) donate protons to solution. D) conduct el
Alecsey [184]

C is incorrect

Both acids and bases produce ions in solution, are electrolytes, and conduct electricity in solution. Although red litmus is an indicator, it does not change color in an acid, acids are proton donors while bases are proton acceptors. Soaps often contain bases, not acids.

D) conduct electricity in water. is the correct answer
