The reason for the change in the hands of the chimpanzee include:

  • Crossbreeding between gorillas and chimpanzees( Represents a reason for the change)
  • Mutations in chimpanzee DNA ( Represents a reason for the change)
  • Differences in the ways chimpanzees use their hands ( Doesn't represents a reason for the change)
  • Sexual reproduction ( Doesn't represents a reason for the change)
  • Differences in enhancer sequences( Represents a reason for the change).

<h3>What is mutation?</h3>

Mutation is defined as the alteration in the genetic makeup of a living organism which may occur due to the following:

  • When there is spontaneous break down of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
  • Change in a single nucleotide of the DNA.
  • when there is additions or deletions of nucleotide in a DNA strand.

A change can be noticed in an animal such as Chimpanzee when the following occurs:

Mutations in chimpanzee DNA: This can alter both that anatomy and the physiological features of the organism involved.

Crossbreeding between gorillas and chimpanzees: When there is cross breeding between a chimpanzee and a gorilla, it will lead to a genetic diversity which can be observed as a change in the hands of the chimpanzee.

What is true about the absorption and storage of fat-soluble versus water-soluble vitamins in the body?
rodikova [14]
The right answer is "<span>fat soluble are stored in the liver and fatty tissue ...".

Lipids are essentially stored as fatty acids in the cytoplasm of adipocytes. All of these cells form adipose tissue, commonly called "fat".These reserves are much larger in quantity than the reserves in the form of glycogen, in the human body.

"<span>water-soluble vitamins can build to toxic levels ..." is false, hydrosoluble vitamins are rarely toxic, even at high concentrations, and even if they are toxic (which is very rare) is it not due to their circulation in the bloodstream, it is due to their accumulation in cells.</span>

Feliz [49]
<span>Organelles are needed for all cells to sustain life. Cell theory states: -that all living things are made of cells -all cells camef rom preexisting cells -and all cells are the basic structure of life. The function or organelles is that it carries the little organs which are needed for specific functions in the body.</span>

If a SARS-CoV2 virus were to mutate and become and become better at attaching to respiratory cells, how would natural selection
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Mutations leading to the better attachement of virus to the host cell would allow the virus to spread the infection and leave more progeny. The reproductive fitness of mutant viruses would allow the mutation to spread.

Explanation:

1. The organisms with same resource requirement compete with each other. Viruses are not living things but once inside the host cell, they behave like living things. Rapid multiplication of virus overpopulate the host cells.

2. Genetic variations are added to the viral progeny by random errors during replication of the viral genome. These random variations may  impart beneficial trait, harmful feature or remain neutral. If a random mutation in the SARS-CoV2 virus allows it to adhere better to the cells of the respiratory system, the virus would be better able to infect these cells to spread the infection. Once inside the host cells, the mutant virus would leave more progeny. On the other hand, the wild type virus that lack this mutation would  have lesser chances of entering the host cells and may or may not replicate.

3. The progeny of the mutant virus would compete better with the non mutant ones due to the presence of same mutation.

4. Differential reproduction and more progeny of the mutant virus would spread the mutation among the virus.
