A culture medium consisting of agar, human blood, and beef heart is a
B) Complex medium
Answer:
Codon: 3'-CGC-5'
Codon: 3'-UGC-5'
Explanation:
The anticodons of tRNAs bind to the complementary codons of mRNA. The mRNA codons are always read in 5' to 3' direction. The 5' base of an mRNA codon pairs with 3' base of the anticodon of tRNAs. The first base of the anticodon (the 5' base) determines the number of mRNA codons that are recognized by the tRNA. When the 5' base of the tRNA anticodon is U or G, it binding with codon is less specific. A tRNA anticodon with 5’ G base can read two different codons.
Anticodon: 5'–GCG–3'.
Codon: 3'-CGC-5'
Codon: 3'-UGC-5'
Answer:
B. At the edge of the plates
Explanation:
<u>Gravity </u>is the principal <u>driving force </u>of <u>plate tectonics </u>(second one is convection<u>)</u>. It causes different density plates to move on the Earth's surface. However, when a <u>denser plate coincides the less denser plate, the high density plate subducts</u> below the <u>lesser density plate</u>. The process, therefore, is called <u>subduction</u>. During this collision of plates, <u>shearing resistance increases</u> and all <u>pressures come at the edge of the plate</u>. The process continues and the lithosphere drags the rest of the plate. The portion of plate below the less denser plate then reaches the mantle. Here, the edge of plate is destroyed due to high temperature of mantle as well as pressure.
Answer:
This question lacks options; the options are:
A) Artificial selection
B) Stabilizing selection
C) Disruptive selection
D) Directional selection
The answer is D) Directional selection
Explanation:
Changes in the environmenal condition affects the distribution of organisms phenotypes. Via this change, organisms with certain traits are naturally selected. The types of natural selection are; stabilizing, disruptive and directional.
Based on the description of the selection in this question, the type of selection is DIRECTIONAL. Directional mutation is that in which one of the two extreme phenotypes in a population is selected against while the other is favored by the occurrence of a natural environmental hazard. The distribution gradually shifts to favour one extreme over the other until the other unselected extreme gets extincted.
This is the case regarding a population of finches affected by drought caused by flood causing all their food source to disappear leaving only ant hills that certain finches with thin beaks can access. This environmental change favorably selects one extreme phenotype (finches with long thin beaks). Hence, a type of DIRECTIONAL selection
