In the oceans on either side of the Isthmus of Panama are 30 species of snapping shrimp, 15 species on the Pacific side and 15 different species on the Atlantic side. Species live at different water depths. Morphological and genetic data show that Atlantic and Pacific species that live at similar depths are sister species. The sister species on each side of the isthmus cannot interbreed because the water in the canal is fresh water, not salt water, and provides a barrier to reproduction. A sea-level, salt-water canal between the two oceans has been proposed to make transport across the isthmus easier. Which of the following outcomes is the most likely result if such a canal were built?
A. greater percentage of difference in DNA sequences between sister species that inhabit deep water than between sister species that inhabt stalow water
B. greater percentage of difference in DNA sequences between sister species that inhabit shallow water than between sister species that inhabit deep water
C. similar percentages of difference in DNA sequences between all pairs of sister species
D. greater percentage of difference in DNA sequences between Atlantic species than between Pacific species

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The options of this question are wrong, you can find the correct options by navigating on the web. The options of this question are as follow:

1) The sister species will continue to diverge from each other.

2) None of the sister species will interbreed with each other.

3) The Atlantic and Pacific shrimp will continue to live in their respective oceans and not enter the new canal.

4) Shallow-water species from the two oceans that are sister species would be more likely to interbreed with each other than would be deep-water species.

Answer:

4) Shallow-water species from the two oceans that are sister species would be more likely to interbreed with each other than would be deep-water species

Explanation:

In evolutionary biology, sister species are defined as descendant species formed when one species splits during the course of evolution. Moreover, adaptation refers to the evolutionary process of adjustment of organisms to the environment, which is usually due to natural selection. During the course of evolution, organisms under different environments must change to adapt to their environments. In this case, it is expected that sister species that live in similar environmental conditions (i.e., shallow-water species) exhibit fewer phenotypic differences, being therefore more likely to interbreed with each other.

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons are burned to produce water and carbon dioxide. Propane (C3H8) is a homologous series alkane that belongs to the hydrocarbon family. As a result, when propane is burned, three molecules of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water are produced.

Because there is an overabundance of oxygen, carbon dioxide is created when butane is completely burned.

These bacteria rapidly divide until they run out of space. Their growth then slows down, and their population size stabilizes. What kind of curve would accurately show these changes in the population?

Answers

The correct answer is B. S-curve

Explanation

There are two models of population growth. One of them is the J-curve in which the population grows constantly without stabilizing, forming a J-shaped graph. Second, the S-curve is a model in which the population grows to a point, and from there it stabilizes, forming an S-shaped graph. According to the above, bacteria that divide rapidly until they run out of space and their growth slows down stabilizing the size of their population has an S curve model because the population does not grow unlimitedly but stabilized under specific circumstances. So, the correct answer is B. S-curve

During transcription, RNA polymerase synthesizes RNA from a DNA template with the help of accessory proteins.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is a. True

Explanation:

The information to produce a protein is coded in the cells in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Transcription is the process in which a DNA sequence is copied into a ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequence. This RNA sequence is a messenger RNA (mRNA) because it will be then translated into a functional protein. For this, the DNA sequence is read and an RNA strand is synthesized by an RNA polymerase (an enzyme that synthesizes RNA molecules from a DNA template). During the process participate other proteins, such as DNA binding proteins, activators, coactivators, etc. (accessory proteins).

what is gestation period?​

Answers

Gestation is the period of development during the carrying of an embryo or fetus inside viviparous animals.[1] It is typical for mammals, but also occurs for some non-mammals. Mammals during pregnancy can have one or more gestations at the same time, for example in a multiple birth.
The time interval of a gestation is called the gestation period. In human obstetrics, gestational age refers to the fertilization age plus two weeks. This is approximately the duration since the woman's last menstrual period (LMP) began.

Answer:

gestation period is the period of development during the carrying of the embryo or fetus inside viviparous animals

Put the following steps of Meiosis in the correct order:

I. The cell divides into 2 daughter cells
II. Homologous chromosomes pair up in the center of the cell
III. Spindle fibers separate homologous chromosomes
IV. Chromosomes become shorter and thicker
A. I, II, III, IV
B. IV, III, II, I
C. II, III, I, IV
D. IV, II, III, I

Answers

C.
Because first thing that happens in meiosis is the homologous pairs come in the center of the cell. Without that happening first, the cell can’t divide into 2 daughter cells, so it is NOT option A.
Chromosomes will become shorter and thicker at the end so the only option that remains is C.
Homologous chromosomes pair up in the center of the cell.Spindle fibers separate homologous chromosomes.The cell divides into 2 daughter cells.Chromosomes become shorter and thicker.

What is Meiosis

Meiosis  (listen); from Ancient Greek'lessening', since it is a reductional division) is a special type of cell division of germ cells in reproducing organisms that produce the gametes, such as sperm or egg cells. It involves two rounds of division that ultimately result in four cells with only one copy of each chromosome (haploid). Additionally, before the division, genetic material from the paternal and maternal copies of each chromosome is crossed over, creating new combinations of code on each chromosome. Later on, during fertilization, the haploid cells produced by meiosis between a male and female will fuse to create a cell with two copies of each chromosome again, the zygote.

Errors in meiosis resulting in aneuploidy (an abnormal number of chromosomes) are the leading known cause of miscarriage and the most frequent genetic cause of developmental disabilities.

The immunoglobulin light chain does not have a D segment. In humans, there are two different possible light chain proteins, termed kappa and lambda. Assume that there are 35 V segments and 5 J segments in the human kappa light chain region, and there are 30 V segments and 4 J segments in the human lambda light chain region. How many possible light chain genes can be created from these different segments, simply due to combinatorial diversity

Answers

Answer:

295  

Explanation:

Antibodies (also known as immunoglobulins) are immune system-related proteins that circulate in the bloodstream in order to recognize pathogenic harmful substances (antigens) and neutralize them. An antibody consists of two immunoglobulin heavy chains and two immunoglobulin light chains. There are two types of immunoglobulin light chains: 1-the kappa (κ) light chain, which is encoded by the immunoglobulin κ locus; and 2-the lambda (λ) light chain, which is encoded by the immunoglobulin λ locus. The immunoglobulin light chain is a multidomain protein composed of two domains: 1- the N-terminal variable (V) domain and 2-the C-terminal constant (C) domain. V(D)J recombination is a type of somatic rearrangement process by which T and B cells can assemble different gene segments, which are referred to as variable (V), diversity (D) and joining (J) gene segments. In the question above the number of possible genomic recombination events between immunoglobulin gene segments can be calculated as >> (5 x 35) + (4 x 30) = 295.

Given the range of current speeds shown on the graph above, would deposition ever be possible for clay (0.001 mm) or silt (0.01mm) particles?
Answer yes or no and explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, deposition can be possible for clay (0.001 mm) and silt (0.01mm) particles when the agent that carry its load is absent in that region such as wind. Wind is the agent that moves clay and silt particles with it so if there is high wind in a specific region, no deposition will occur while on the other hand, those areas where wind is not present, deposition will definitely occurs so we can say that deposition depends on the presence and absence of wind.

Mutations in which of the following cells would get passed on to the next generation?
I. sperm
II. Skin cell
III. Egg
IV. Neuron
A. II, III, and IV
B. III only
C.I and III
D. I, III, and IV

Answers

Answer:

C. I and III

Explanation:

A mutation needs to occur in a gamete cell in order to be passed down to the next generation.

If it occurs in a somatic (body) cell, the mutation will only be present in that organism.

On the other hand, in a gamete cell, the mutation will pass down because gamete cells are directly involved in the genetic makeup of the offspring.

So, since sperm and egg cells are gametes, mutations in those cells would get passed on.

A biologist discovered a new animal. Upon studying its embryonic development, she observed radial cleavage with the blastopore developing into an anus. This animal was categorized as a parazoan. pseudocoelomate. deuterostome. protostome. radiata.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is ''deuterostome''.

Explanation:

Deuterostomes are a superphylum of animals in which the anus is formed in or near the blastopore area in the developing embryo, and the mouth is secondarily formed elsewhere. The oral apparatus that these adult animals enjoy does not come from the embryo's blastopore. Instead it is a new formation. They enter the Bilateria classification, where species that enjoy bilateral symmetry are incorporated. In deuterostomes, the primary phases of division occur in parallel to the axis between the tips. That is, the segmentation they have is radial when the embryo is in state 1 with four cells.
