Answer:
Reproduction is the process of producing offspring, whereas heredity is the process
of passing on traits.
Explanation:
PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST, if you think this is correct and best! Thanks!
Reproduction generally means making copy of something, like giving birth/breeding, duplicating.
Heredity is inheritance of traits/ passing on traits from parents t thsir child/children through genes. It makes children have same traits as their parents and looks so what same like their parents!
They definitely aren’t same!
Reproduction is the process of producing offspring, whereas heredity is the process of passing on traits.
What do you mean by heredity?Heredity, also called inheritance or biological inheritance, is the passing on of traits from parents to their offspring; either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction, the offspring cells or organisms acquire the genetic information.
Heredity explains why offspring resemble, but are not identical to, their parents and is a unifying biological principle. Heredity refers to specific mechanisms by which characteristics or traits are passed from one generation to the next via genes.
Heredity can be defined as the transfer of genetic characters from parents to offsprings by the process of fertilization, where the nuclei of male and female gamete fuses with each other and forms the genetic material of the zygote.

What is electronegativity?The term "electronegativity" describes how attracted an atom is to the bonding electrons in molecules as opposed to other atoms.
American chemist Linus Pauling developed a set of dimensionless variables known as electronegativity values that vary from a little under one for alkali metals to a maximum of four for fluorine.
Electropositive elements are those that are on the left of the periodic table and have low electronegativities. We shall use the key attribute of the order of electronegativities F > O > N > C to explain the chemical properties of organic molecules.
Therefore, Zinc 1.65, Chromium 1.66, Tungsten 2.36 and Iodine 2.66.

the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic gene regulation
Answer:
READ THIS
Explanation:
To understand how gene expression is regulated, we must first understand how a gene codes for a functional protein in a cell. The process occurs in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, just in slightly different manners.
Prokaryotic organisms are single-celled organisms that lack a cell nucleus, and their DNA therefore floats freely in the cell cytoplasm. To synthesize a protein, the processes of transcription and translation occur almost simultaneously. When the resulting protein is no longer needed, transcription stops. As a result, the primary method to control what type of protein and how much of each protein is expressed in a prokaryotic cell is the regulation of DNA transcription. All of the subsequent steps occur automatically. When more protein is required, more transcription occurs. Therefore, in prokaryotic cells, the control of gene expression is mostly at the transcriptional level.
Eukaryotic cells, in contrast, have intracellular organelles that add to their complexity. In eukaryotic cells, the DNA is contained inside the cell’s nucleus and there it is transcribed into RNA. The newly synthesized RNA is then transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm, where ribosomes translate the RNA into protein. The processes of transcription and translation are physically separated by the nuclear membrane; transcription occurs only within the nucleus, and translation occurs only outside the nucleus in the cytoplasm. The regulation of gene expression can occur at all stages of the process (Figure 1). Regulation may occur when the DNA is uncoiled and loosened from nucleosomes to bind transcription factors (epigenetic level), when the RNA is transcribed (transcriptional level), when the RNA is processed and exported to the cytoplasm after it is transcribed (post-transcriptional level), when the RNA is translated into protein (translational level), or after the protein has been made (post-translational level).
Answer:
Prokaryotic gene expression is primarily controlled at the level of transcription. Eukaryotic gene expression is controlled at the levels of epigenetics, transcription, post-transcription, translation, and post-translation.

Answer:
With the boost in warmer weather and excess water, populations will boom
Explanation:
Yabbies will do best at a water temperature of between 12°C and 20°C but they will tolerate water that is a little colder or warmer. Complete immersion in water is not essential for life for the yabby. If its gills are kept moist (humid air is sufficient), it can absorb oxygen from the air and survive for many days out of water. To breed, however, it must be in water. With the water needed for breading and warmer weather used for breeding, population numbers for the Yabbies should rise.

A famous celebrity has an extreme security system for their estate. The security system includes sensors in the ground as well as on the sides of the buildings. A loud truck drives down the road entering the estate. There is a sensor in the ground and another on the side of the security guard’s shed. If both sensors are 100m from the truck, which sensor will pick up the noise of the truck first and why?
A.
Guard Shed - The sensor on the security guard’s shed will detect the sound first because the sound is traveling through the air and sound will travel fastest through a gas.
B.
Ground - The sensor in the ground will detect the sound first because the sound is traveling through the dirt and sound will travel fastest through a solid.
C.
Same time - Because the sound is traveling through both the ground and the air at the same time, it will reach both the shed and the ground sensor at the same time.
D.
Neither sensor - 100m is too far for the sound to travel. Neither sensor will pick up the sound of the truck until it is closer to them.
Answer:
B. Ground - The sensor in the ground will detect the sound first because the sound is traveling through the dirt and sound will travel fastest through a solid.
Explanation:
Sound wave is an example of mechanical wave, which means sound waves require a medium to travel through. However, how fast a sound travels is dependent on the kind of medium it travels through. Sound travels fastest via a SOLID medium, then liquid and slowest through gases.
According to this question, sensor in the ground and side of the security guard’s shed were placed in an estate owned by a famous celebrity. A loud truck, then, drives down the road entering the estate.
Based on the principles of sound eaves movement, the sound from the truck will be picked by the sensors in the GROUND first because the sound is traveling through the dirt and sound will travel fastest through a solid.

The INDEPENDENT VARIABLE:
A. Is the participant
B. Is what the scientists manipulate in the experiment
C. The component that is measured. D. The results of the experiment
Answer:
B. Is what the scientists manipulate in the experiment.
Explanation:
The Independent variable is not dependent, or doesn't rely, on another variable in the experiment. So, it would make the most sense that they would manipulate the Independent so that they can watch and see how the dependent variable reacts to the manipulation, or the change, in the independent variable.

What does lemon juice, snake venom and cyanide have in common?
Answer:
enzymes are protein molecules that act as catalysts, speeding up chemical reactions without themselves getting used up. Each enzyme will only speed up a specific reaction, for example, catalase will speed up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen but it will not speed up the breakdown of starch into glucose. Enzymes (e.g. catalase) have active sites with specific shapes that bind to the substrate molecule (e.g. hydrogen peroxide) forming an enzyme-substrate complex. The enzyme-substrate complex then breaks down into the enzyme and product, allowing the enzyme to go on and react with another substrate molecule. Temperature and pH affect enzyme function because they can change the shape of the enzyme’s active site, preventing it from binding to the substrate, just as a broken lock will no longer fit the key. When the shape of an enzyme changes we call this denaturation. Any factor that increases the frequency of collisions between enzymes and substrates (increasing concentration, surface area or temperature) will increase the rate of reaction.
