Asnail, elodea (aquatic plant), or both were added to the tubes and they were stoppered. tubes were placed under a grow light for 24 hours and the results recorded. the test tubes were then covered for 24 hours to produce a dark environment and the results recorded. which statement best explains the change in test tube d from the light setup to the dark setup.

Groups of organisms with low biotic potential, such as gray whales, that produce at most one offspring every other year a) are r-selected b) are k-selected c) are not subject to density-dependent limiting factors d) show the initial stages of the extinction process e) have escaped from the processes of natural selection and adaptation

The human genome project is devoted to mapping the general dna sequence of our species. this could lead to the development of new medicines, as well as the possibility of using gene therapy to treat certain diseases. however, there are some ethical issues surrounding the mapping of individual genomes. one concern is a) that your genes may change over time, making the project useless. b) that insurance companies could discriminate based on genetic make-up. c) that since this has never been done before, we should probably not do it now. d) that sequencing our individual genomes is so expensive, it is a counter-productive strategy.
