In tallgrass prairie ecosystems, bison are a keystone species. This means that ______. 

Type the correct letter or number corresponding to the answer options in the dropdown below. Molecule Name: [molecule] Enzyme or Reaction: [enzyme] Substrate or product of a reaction involving the molecule: [substrate] Image Description A complex molecule with a cobalt atom at its center. The cobalt atom is coordinated to four nitrogen atoms arranged in a square planar configuration, forming the corrin ring. This corrin ring consists of four pyrrole rings linked by methine bridges, forming a large macrocyclic structure. Attached to one side of the corrin ring is a nucleotide loop, which contains a ribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nucleotide base. At the opposite side of the corrin ring, there is a dimethyl-benzimidazole group coordinated to the cobalt atom.  Answer Options Molecule Names Enzymes and Reactions Substrate or Product A.

In C. elegans, which is a small roundworm commonly used in genetics research, certain alleles of the gene “U” can lead to Uncoordinated movements by the worm. In addition, certain alleles of the gene “D” can lead to a worm that is shorter and wider than an average worm. The genes U and D are unlinked. If a UuDD worm is mated to a uuDd worm. What proportion of the offspring will be uuDD?
