Elephants in the savanna regions of africa dig holes in dried up river beds to reach water lying just below the surface. these holes provide drinking water for other animals as well. so, without the elephants, many animals might otherwise die from lack of water during the dry season. the location in which the elephants live is an example of a/n and the role they play in creating water holes is an example of a a) ecosystem; habitat b) community; niche c) habitat; niche d) niche; habitat

You are studying several alleles of an e. coli helicase gene. one allele, called rsr, confers resistance to rs2014, an antibiotic that works by inhibiting helicase activity. bacteria with the rss allele are sensitive to rs2014. another allele, called ts-, produces a temperature sensitive mutation of the helicase. in bacteria with the ts- allele, helicase is inactivated at 42 °c but functions normally at 37 °c. helicase functions normally at both temperatures in bacteria with the ts allele. you obtain the following data while testing four strains of e. coli at different temperatures and doses of rs2014. each number represents the percentage of maximal dna synthesis. based on this data, assign the appropriate genotype to strains a–d in the spaces provided

Need ! will give 20 points! what are two ways that diatoms differ from slime molds? the external coverings of diatoms are made up of (silica, chitin or peptidoglycan), while slime molds have cell walls containing (silica, peptidoglycan or chitin). diatoms are (chemoheterotrophs, photoautotrophs or chemoautotrophs) because they make food through photosynthesis, while slime molds are (heterotrophs, phototrophs or autotrophs) because they eat decaying plant matter.
