Answer: C. The species is classified in a clade that does not include all protists.
The Kingdom Protists involves organisms which are simple in structure and functions. Some of these organisms have characteristics common to both plants and animals. A clade represents a group of organisms that have all characteristics common to their ancestor. The example of algea given here, has characteristics which are found mainly in plants belongs to Kingdom Plantea. Therefore, the clade of these Protists can be related with those of plants but cannot be related to Protists which exhibit animal like characteristics.
Therefore, species is classified in a clade that does not include all Protists.

Answer:
The question lacks options, the options are:
parents?
A.100% red/white-feather chickens.
B.50% white-feather chickens and 50% red/white-feather chickens.
C.33% white-feather chickens, 33% red-feather chickens, and 33% red/white-feather chickens.
D.25% white-feather chickens, 25% red-feather chickens, and 50% red/white-feather chickens
The Correct answer is D
Explanation:
According to the question, the hybrid chicken has a mixture of red and white feather phenotypes expressed at the same time. This tells us that the red and white alleles are CODOMINANT in the chicken i.e. none is dominant or recessive over the other.
Let's assume that (R) allele is the red feather colour while (r) allele is for white feather colour. Therefore, the red/white feathered chicken will have a Rr genotype. In a cross between two red/white feathered chicken (Rr), the following offsprings will be produced RR, Rr, Rr and rr
RR- Homozygous red feather d chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
Rr- Hybrid Red/White feathered chicken (2/4 × 100=50%)
rr- Homozygous white feathered chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
Answer:
the mRNA goes through extensive modifications such as addition of a poly tail and a 5' cap in eukaryotes but not in prokaryotes.
Differences:
- the promoters in prokaryotes have a -35 and -10 box while in eukaryotes they are variable but have a TATA box from
- the transcription initiation site there is a single RNA polymerase in prokaryotes while eukaryotes have multiple RNA polymerases
- the sigma factor associates with the promoter region in prokaryotes but in eukaryotes there are many basal transcription factors
Explanation:
Ribosomal and transfer RNAs are processed both in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. However, mRNA is only processed in eukaryotes. In eukaryotic cells, mRNA processing involves:
1. Capping at the 5' end. This process has several functions including regulation of nuclear export, prevention of eukaryotic mRNA degradation and promotion of translation.
2. Splicing in order to remove introns and conserve coding exons. Splicing helps to increase the diversity of the eukaryotic mRNAs (and therefore eukaryotic proteins)
3. Polyadenylation by the addition of a poly(A) tail at the 3' end. The poly(A) tail makes the eukaryotic mRNA molecule more stable and also prevents its degradation by exonucleases.
