A species of fish evolved over thousands of years to have gills that allowed the fish to swim deep in the sea. What’s the effect

of this development on deep-water resources?
The fish developed the gills because of ____. Because the fish are now able to swim in deep water, their ____ in shallower water will have less food. Likewise, competition for food among deep-water fish that eat the same types of food will ____.

Answer:

genetic modification     competitors     increase

Explanation:

The fish developed the gills because of <em>genetic modification</em>. Because the fish are now able to swim in deep water, their <em>competitors</em> in shallower water will have less food. Likewise, competition for food among deep-water fish that eat the same types of food will <em>increase</em>.

Cite the three main types of RNA and describe briefly the function of each.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

mRNA: Carry genetic information from DNA to protein; serve as template for protein synthesis.

tRNA: Serves as adapter molecule and deliver specific amino acid from the cell pool to the mRNA-ribosome complex.

rRNA: Structural component of ribosomes.

Explanation:

There are three types of nongenetic RNAs: mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA.  

1. The messenger RNA (mRNA) is formed by the process of transcription in the nucleus. Transcription uses template strand of DNA to specify the nucleotide sequence in mRNA. The mRNA enters cytoplasm to join ribosomes. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA serves as a template and specifies the amino acid sequence of proteins.  

2. The transfer RNA (tRNA) serves as an adapter molecule during the process of protein synthesis and binds to the specific amino acids to deliver them to the protein-synthesizing machinery. The anticodon of tRNA binds to the complementary mRNA codons.  

3. The ribosomal RNA (rRNA) serves as structural components for ribosomes. Each of the subunits of ribosomes is made up of rRNA and proteins.

kati45 [8]

Answer:

Two European men and two Polynesian women settled on a previously uninhabited tropical island. All four of the settlers have brown eyes, a dominant trait, but one of the Europeans is heterozygous and carries the recessive gene for blue eyes.  No new settlers arrive,and nobody leaves the island.After a few generations,the percentage of blue-eyed individuals increases from the original zero to 25 percent.This is probably due to which of the following factors?

genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift entails when there are changes in the gene frequency which occur in a gene that is existing. From the analogy above, it is a known fact that only gneetic drift could allow such to happen as mutation will only occur with a sudden change of gene which is not the case described above

Why do cells in the epidermis flatten out and die as they reach the surface of the skin?
Rudik [331]
May not be right, but because of Oxygen and the growing of new skin? We rub our skin without noticing and it will become frail and rub off, creating new skin
