Answer:
There are five major causes of extinction: habitat loss, an introduced species, pollution, population growth, and overconsumption.
The first major difference between prokaryote and eukaryote gene expression is the location. Due to lack of compartments (nucleus) prokaryotic gene expression (both transcription and translation) occurs within the cytoplasm (genetic material is located within the cytoplasm). So, transcription and translation in prokaryote occurs simultaneously. Gene expression in eukaryote occurs in both the nucleus (transcription) and cytoplasm (translation).
The steps of regulation of gene expression are also dissimilar, in prokaryotic cell, transcription is mostly the main point of regulation (eukaryote have transcription, post-transcription, translation, and post-translation regulation together with epigenetic regulation).
Answer:
Explanation:
Research published on January 7 in the journal Nature Genetics shows that identical twins differ by an average of 5.2 genetic mutations. The authors argue that these small differences between twins' genetic code could change how scientists study human development.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>A law is a statement of fact but a theory is an explanation.
</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
<em>A law is in general a universally accepted fact.</em> It remains true and the same in any part of the world it takes several years of experimentation to develop a law.
<em>A law is a statement that cannot be challenged at the present point of time with all its technological advancements.</em> A theory is different from a law. It is an explanation of facts.
<em>Most acceptable one among several explanations becomes a theory. A theory doesn’t have a universal nature like that of a fact. </em>
Answer:
Plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Explanation:
- Cellular respiration is the conversion of glucose into ATP and energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2 along with water and oxygen and carbon dioxide as by-products.
- Cellular respiration is a process that occurs both in autotrophs and heterotrophs.
- Only the final stage of cellular respiration i.e. oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
- Heterotrophic cells don't take in carbondioxide, they utilize glucose obtained through food.
