"A research group is looking for a way to use spider silk, valued for its high tensile strength, to make extremely strong ropes, but spiders only produce small amounts of silk. They have isolated the gene and have inserted it into cows to produce the silk protein in their milk where the scientists can collect it in large quantities. What is this process called?"

Biomass can be used to generate electricity. biomass relies heavily on agricultural crops. plants release carbon dioxide and water in combustion. plants use photosynthesis to originally generate the energy that is needed. the chemical energy of these plants all started with what energy source?

You decide that the introduction should also discuss the extremophiles that are referred to as the archaea. these single-cell organisms are considered "extremophiles" due to their ability to survive and reproduce in environmental conditions that would be hostile for most living organisms. archaea species have been isolated from highly acidic sulfur springs, ocean floor thermal vents with temperatures that exceed boiling, and subarctic ice well below freezing. while still considered to be prokaryotic, the archaea have numerous differences that place them apart from the bacteria. choose the characteristics that separate the archaea from other prokaryotic cells. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. archaea lack true peptidoglycan in their cell walls. the morphology of the cell is rigid and is geometric in shape, similar to a sphere or cylinder. the cytoplasmic membrane lipids of archaea have branched or ringform hydrocarbon chains. all currently identified and characterized archaea have been linked as the causative agent to an animal or human disease.

Zoo geographic regions are characterized by the presence of specific groups of animals these regions are determined by the taxonomic or phylogenetic relationships of animals. the map shows the zoogeographic regions proposed by the naturalist alfred russel wallace in 1876. the similarities of organisms in which two areas numbered above provide the best evidence for common ancestry between the organisms in both locations ?
