Question

what is.............. best answer 10 pointss?

Answer 1

Melanin - a class of compounds found in the plant, animal, and protista kingdoms, where it serves predominantly as a pigment



Mimicry - occurs when a group of organisms, the mimics, have evolved to share common perceived characteristics with another group, the models, through the selective action of a signal-receiver



Niche - Niche (architecture), an extra or a space that has been reduced in size

Ecological niche, a term describing the relational position of an organism's species

Niche market, a focused, targetable portion (subset) of a market sector.

Niche, a sub-genre of UK garage music

Niche Science & Technology A healthcare communications company



Mutations - In biology, mutations are changes to the nucleotide sequence of the genetic material of an organism. Mutations can be caused by copying errors in the genetic material during cell division, by exposure to ultraviolet or ionizing radiation, chemical mutagens, or viruses, or can occur deliberately under cellular control during processes such as hypermutation

Answer 2

1.A skin pigment (substance that gives the skin its color). Dark-skinned people have more melanin than light- skinned people. Melanin also acts as a sunscreen and protects the skin from ultraviolet light.

2.a superficial resemblance of one organism to another or to natural objects among which it lives that secures it a selective advantage

3. a recess in a wall especially for a statue b: something that resembles a niche2 a: a place, employment, status, or activity for which a person or thing is best fitted b: a habitat supplying the factors necessary for the existence of an organism or species c: the ecological role of an organism in a community especially in regard to food consumption d: a specialized market

4. A permanent change, a structural alteration, in the DNA or RNA. In humans and many other organisms, mutations occur in DNA. However, in retroviruses like HIV, mutations occur in RNA which is the genetic material of retroviruses.

Answer 3

Melanin is a pigment in the outer layers of the body

Mimicry is the act of copying something

A niche is the particular area within a habitat occupied by an organism.

A mutation is a change in the genetic code of an organism.

Answer 4

Melanin–noun any of a class of insoluble pigments, found in all forms of animal life, that account for the dark color of skin, hair, fur, scales, feathers, etc.



mimicry- the act, practice, or art of mimicking



NICHE-

1.an ornamental recess in a wall or the like, usually semicircular in plan and arched, as for a statue or other decorative object.

2. a place or position suitable or appropriate for a person or thing: to find one's niche in the business world.

3. a distinct segment of a market.

4. Ecology. the position or function of an organism in a community of plants and animals.



Mutations-

The act or process of being altered or changed.

An alteration or change, as in nature, form, or quality.

Genetics

A change of the DNA sequence within a gene or chromosome of an organism resulting in the creation of a new character or trait not found in the parental type.

The process by which such a change occurs in a chromosome, either through an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA coding for a gene or through a change in the physical arrangement of a chromosome.

Answer 5

Melanin -any of a class of insoluble pigments, found in all forms of animal life, that account for the dark color of skin, hair, fur, scales, feathers, etc.



Mimicry -Biology. the close external resemblance of an organism, the mimic, to some different organism, the model, such that the mimic benefits from the mistaken identity, as seeming to be unpalatable or harmful.



Niche - Ecology. the position or function of an organism in a community of plants and animals.



Mutations -Genetics

change of the DNA sequence within a gene or chromosome of an organism resulting in the creation of a new character or trait not found in the parental type.



The process by which such a change occurs in a chromosome, either through an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA coding for a gene or through a change in the physical arrangement of a chromosome.



Mutant.

Answer 6

melanin = pigmentation --> a substance that gives the skin its color.

mimicry = the act of taking the micky out of someone/impersonating someone's behaviour (comedians do this alot)

niche =

1). a position particularly well suited to the person who occupies it; "he found his niche in the academic world"

2). recess: an enclosure that is set back or indented

3). ecological niche = the status of an organism within its environment and community (affecting its survival as a species)

mutations = when the bases of DNA pair up incorrectly, your body produces proteins that cause mutations to occur. Changes in the DNA that codes for a gene, which may or may not cause a normal working gene to become a non-working gene.

=D

Answer 7

Melanin - any of various black, dark brown, reddish-brown, or yellow pigments of animal or plant structures (as skin or hair)



Mimicry - the action, practice, or art of mimicking



Niche - a place, employment, status, or activity for which a person or thing is best fitted



Mutation - a relatively permanent change in hereditary material involving either a physical change in chromosome relations or a biochemical change that make up gene

Answer 8

not sure a bout melanin but mimicry is when an animal looks like another that is not as weak a niche is an animals role in the wild and a mutation is when animals change over time and mutate

Answer 9

Answer 10

i don't know them all but mimicry is when one animal or species mimics something that another one does, so it's just copying another organisms behavior. ecological niche is all of the things that an organism needs to survive, like what other things it relies on for survival. mutations are a mistake in the cell's DNA produced by miscopying during cell reproduction, radiation changes, or environmental factors.

Answer 11

melanin- chemical produced by animals (and humans) that controls behavior and emotions

mimicry- animals evolve to look like other animals to aviod predators

niche- small biological role in the ecosystem

mutation- dna irregularity

Answer 12

is a term describing the relational position of a species or population in its ecosystem[1]. A shorthand definition of niche is how an organism makes a living. The ecological niche describes how an organism or population responds to the distribution of resources and competitors (e. g., by growing when resources are abundant, and predators, parasites and pathogens are scarce) and how it in turn alters those same factors (e.g., limiting access to resources by other organisms, acting as a food source for predators and a consumer of prey)[2].

Answer 13

melanin - a pigment

mimicry - to copy, attempt to be like, mimic

niche - the small habitat where an organism lives (or finds comfort, in the human case). my niche is my small town.

mutations - when the natural growth process is changes by a outside factor causing something wrong to occur (ex. a baby born without a toe)

Answer 14

melanin is a chemical

mimcricy is the aact of mimicking somethin (copying something)

a niche is a small semi enclosed area

mutations are the act of changing into something strange, abnormal

Answer 15

1. something in your skin that reacts with the sun to tan you

2. ?

3. Perfect fit

4. Abnormalities

Answer 16

I don't usually do homework help, but I like these kind of questions:



Melanin is a type of pigment found in humans and other organisms.



Mimicry is where an organism either copies or takes on the features of another organism.



An "ecological" niche describes the position one organism has in relation to other organisms.



Mutations are changes caused by miscopying during cell reproduction due to a number of factors.

Answer 17

melanin: any of a class of insoluble pigments, found in all forms of animal life, that account for the dark color of skin, hair, fur, scales, feathers, etc.

mimicry: the close external resemblance of an organism, the mimic, to some different organism, the model, such that the mimic benefits from the mistaken identity, as seeming to be unpalatable or harmful.

niche: the position or function of an organism in a community of plants and animals.

mutations: A change of the DNA sequence within a gene or chromosome of an organism resulting in the creation of a new character or trait not found in the parental type

Hope this helps. [:

Answer 18

Melanine- a substance that gives the skin its color.



Mimicry- An adaptation in which an animal is protected against predators by its resemblance to a different animal



Niche- role of an organism in an ecosystem



Mutation- mistake in a cell's DNA



I NEED THE 10 PTS......

Answer 19

melanin is basically a determinant of skin color but it can be found in hair and in various locations in the body.

mimicry-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimicry

A niche is a habitat or where and animal or species lives.

Mutations are changes in the DNA that codes for a gene, which may or may not cause a normal working gene to become a non-working gene.

Hope this helps!

Answer 20

a melanin is a substance that gives the skin and hair its

natural color and gives the color to the iris of the eye.

Answer 23

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really pissed. She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!" The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought the box back in the house. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale. Bob has been missing since Friday.
