8. Which of the following involves a situation in which a density-dependent factor influences a population?
a. Several seasons passed during which rainfall was ample, winters were not severe and
food for snow hares was in good supply.
b. A hurricane severely disrupted a salt marsh and uprooted most of the marsh grass in an
estuary.
c. A forest fire on the north side of a mountain forced the white-tailed deer from the north
side to move into the range of the white-tailed deer on the south side of the mountain,
making food more scarce.
d. After a heavy rain, pesticides that were applied to a cotton crop to control weevils ran off
into a waterway that flows next to a field.
9. On ten acres of native forest there are eight white-tailed deer, seven coyotes, 45 armadillos, and 231 loblolly
pine trees. Which population has the highest density?
a. white-tailed deer
c. armadillos
b. coyotes
d. Toblolly pine trees

transcription is a process in which information is rewritten. it is something our cells must do, in a more specialized and narrowly defined way. in biology, transcription is the process of copying out the dna sequence of a gene in the similar alphabet of rna. it needs to happen in the nucleus because that's where the dna is. dna is always inside the nucleus unless the cell is dividing.

transcription is the first step in gene expression, which involves copying a gene's dna sequence to make an rna molecule. transcription is performed by rna polymerases. it has three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination. rna molecules must be processed after transcription in eukaryotes.

explanation:

long version:

the protein synthesis consists two processes which are, transcription and translation. transcription takes place in the nucleus. it uses dna as a template to make an rna molecule. rna then leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome in the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. transcription is the first part of the central dogma of molecular biology: dna → rna. it is the transfer of genetic instructions in dna to messenger rna (mrna). during transcription, a strand of mrna is made that is complementary to a strand of dna.  

these three stages are:

  initiation: in which   is the beginning of transcription.occuring when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

    elongation: in which is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

    termination: in which is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
