The DNA in the nucleus and mitochondria are the same.
This is not exactly true, although they are similar. This is not a correct option.

The following three are correct options: 

Mitochondria and chloroplasts grow independently from the cell.
This is true, and supports the idea that they previously existed as their own organisms. 

 Prokaryotic cells, mitochondria, and chloroplasts are all the same size.
All three organisms/organelles are roughly the same size, which supports the idea that chloroplasts and mitochondria are descendants or prokaryotes.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own ribosomes.This is true as  well.

Answer:

In a school environment, there are different teachers who teach a different subject, administration controls all the school functions and affairs other than teaching. Other staff such as janitors, bus drivers carry out necessary functions.

In the schools, there are various specific tasks carried out by specific teaching or non-teaching staff. In the cell, a similar condition found as they show specialization and communication as various cell organelles are specific to a specific function and communicate with one another.

Explain how the reproductive strategies of mosquitoes and elephants help them overcome the natural threats of their environments
Gnoma [55]

Mosquitos are an example of organisms with r-reproduction strategy. This means that they tend to overproduce, have many offspring , but do not provide care for them. This happens because those organisms  live in unstable, unpredictable environments, so rapid reproducing is very important. R strategy helps them produce a huge number of offspring, because at least some of them will survive to reproduce.  

Elephants are an example of organisms with k-reproduction strategy, meaning that they have few offspring at a time, take care of them and have a long live span. These organisms occupy more stable environments, usually are stronger, better protected and more energy efficient. Their reproductive strategy is to grow slowly and to produce offspring with high probability of survival.

You work for the WWF. Write a letter to the mayor of a small farm town to explain why this town is experiencing erosion, and why
horrorfan [7]

The letter should contain concerns about the causes and ill effects of erosion.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sir,

I am very sad to inform you that the town of Hariharanpur is suffering from continuous erosion for the last 3 years. Even after having proper knowledge about this fact, you being the mayor, are not taking any charge of this situation.

The town is situated just by the side of River Ganges which makes it's soil full of moisture. Along with the repeated deforestation and tree cutting for urbanisation, the smallest of the rain falls are also eroding a lot of soils. This can lead to severe landslides in river Ganges with severe loss of properties as well as loss of lives too.

So i request you to start embanking the river as well as to start planting new trees to save the town from getting lost under Ganges.

Thanking you,

XYZ.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) Her title is accurate because one extreme is favored.</em>

Explanation:

In ecological studies, directional selection can be described as a selection due to which an extreme phenotype is favoured by natural selection and evolution causes the change in allele frequencies in favour of the extreme phenotype.

In the condition described in the question, the phenotype for eating insects was the extreme phenotype which was favoured by natural selection. The allele frequency for this extreme phenotype became abundant due to evolution. Hence, option B is correct.
