Answer: a. rna interference.

Rna interference <span> was known by other names like  <span>co-suppression  because it </span>has become evident that RNAi has immense potential in inhibiting desired genes  by neutralizing targeted mRNA molecules</span> Two types of small ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules that are central to RNA interference are  miRNA and <span>siRNA. </span>

Daniel is studying feeding relationships in a neighborhood pond. He observes several organisms that feed on one another, and he
vichka [17]

So given the suggested food chain of algae-snail-sunfish-heron we can conclude that this food chain is heavily dependent on the process of photosynthesis.

The algae is the only of the organism that are directly dependent of the photosynthesis for their survival, while the snail, sunfish, and heron, and indirectly dependent on it.

Since we are talking about a food chain, in essence it means that all organism are connected through one another. So the algae perform photosynthesis for its own survival, the snail is using the algae is a food source, the snail is later eaten by the sunfish, and the sunfish goes on the menu of the heron.

If the algae, by some scenario, are not able to perform photosynthesis, than they will die off, and if they die off, than the snail will die off because of lack of food, if the snail dies off, along with it dies off the sunfish because of lack of food, and if the sunfish is out of the scene, the heron goes as well.

So we can conclude that the process of photosynthesis is of crucial importance for the survival of all four species, be it directly or indirectly.

How do day-neutral and intermediate-day photoperiod plants differ in their requirements?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Photoperiod signifies towards the time that an animal or a plant gets exposed to light in a twenty-four-hour duration. Different types of plants need different durations of light exposure to follow their respective life cycles.  

On the basis of getting exposed to light differently, the plants are differentiated into short-day plants, long-day plants, day-neutral plants, and intermediate-day plants. The day-neutral plants will undergo flowering at any length of the day, given that there is the availability of minimum amount of light, which is essential for usual growth. For example, beans, tropical plants, cotton, and others.  

On the other hand, the intermediate-day plants will not flower if the days are too long or too short, like different varieties of grasses.
