The genetic variations seen in and between populations are known as human genetic variation.

Humans differ genetically from one another. Due to developmental mutations and gene copy-number variation, even monozygotic twins, who arise from a single zygote, may differ genetically. Techniques like genetic fingerprinting rely on individual differences, even between closely related people.

There are 324 million identified variations from sequenced human genomes as of 2017.

A person's genome typically differs from the reference genome by 20 million base pairs, or 0.6% of the total 3.2 billion base pairs, as of 2015.

In contrast to other species, humans are genetically uniform. While a limited number of genetic variations are found more commonly in particular geographic regions or in individuals with ancestry from those places, this variance accounts for the majority of genetic variation.

Genetic variation between populations occurs for at least three reasons. If an allele offers a competitive advantage, natural selection may endow people with an adaptive advantage in a particular environment.

Which processes releases energy to be used by a cell
const2013 [10]

Answer:

respiration

The source of the energy required to regenerate ATP is the chemical energy stored in food (e.g. glucose). The cellular process of releasing energy from food through a series of enzyme-controlled reactions is called respiration . Some of the energy released is used to produce ATP.

Explanation:

all based on research.

A plasmid 41 twists and 6 right handed writhes. What is the Lk for this plasmid?
OLEGan [10]

Answer: Lk for this plasmid = 47

Explanation:

The formula to compute Lk is given by :-

Topological Linking Number (Lk): Twist (Tw) + Writhe (Wr)

Given: A plasmid 41 twists and 6 right handed writhes.

i.e. Twist (Tw) = 41   , Writhe (Wr) = 6

Then, Topological Linking Number (Lk) for this plasmid :  = 41+6

= 47

Hence, the Lk for this plasmid = 47
