Answer:
the fundamental unit of heredity
Explanation:
DNA is a double stranded helix structure. Each strand is made up of a string of nucleotides.
A gene is a region of DNA, usually tens of thousands of nucleotides long. At the simplest level, one gene encodes for one trait. Therefore, the gene can be described as the fundamental unit of heredity.
Genes work by coding for specific proteins, which carry out essentially all the functions in the cell.
Answer:
There is little to no sunlight in the aphotic zone.
Explanation:
The aphotic zone is the deepest part of a lake/ocean, so no light is able to penetrate into those depths. Without light, photosynthetic organisms will not be able to undergo photosynthesis and will therefore not be able to survive.
Answer:
Heart
The
striated muscle tissue with
relatively small cells that have one or two nuclei can be found at the heart. The intracellular calcium signaling is an intrinsic component
of signal transduction pathways that regulate vital aspects of muscle function
including excitability, force production, protein synthesis, and energy
expenditure that occurs in the striated muscle tissue of the heart.
Answer:
In an ancestral elm species, mutations gave rise to the phenotypic trait "winged-seeds". Subsequently, selection favored elm plants with winged-seeds that diverged over time to become a separate species
Explanation:
A mutation is a genetic change in the DNA sequence. In general, mutations have a negative impact on the fitness of the individual (i.e., mutations are generally deleterious) and therefore they disappear from the population. However, there are situations where mutations are beneficial and confer an adaptive advantage, thereby increasing their frequency in the population. In this case, mutations associated with the formation of winged-seeds conferred an adaptive advantage (i.e., higher seed dispersal capacity) to individuals who had this phenotypic trait, thereby these individuals had more chances to reproduce and pass their genes to the next generation. Eventually, Elm plants with winged-seeds accumulated sufficient genetic differences to prevent interbreeding, leading to the formation of a separate species.
