When you see butterflies with different wing colors, you should conclude that there's a difference in their protein expression, so there's a mutation somewhere in the genome of the butterfly with the new color.

To answer the first question, if the desired color exists in nature, you should take the specific butterfly's caterpillars and raise them. If the desired <span>butterfly color doesn't exist in nature than you should wait for the mutation to occur (which could take many years) or look for the gene in the butterfly which is responsible for the pigmentation of their wings.

For the second question, mutations in the gene of the coloration of the butterfly's wing could change the color, so what scientist do is to try to provoke different mutations on the caterpillar's gene until they have a butterfly with the desired color.
So everything is about molecular genetics, every difference between species is due to mutations.

If you observed the sister chromatids separating during cell division, what phase of mitosis would you be observing?
Sidana [21]
This is the anaphase of mitosis. Anaphase is characterized by the separation of sister chromatids or "pulling away" of the sister chromatids from the metaphase plate to the opposite spindle poles. This is also the phase where chromosomes reach its maximum condensation meaning that the process of the reformation of the nucleus will be shorter and easier.

Since both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are irreversible processes, there is no thermodynamic barrier to their simultaneous op
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

It is not important for the cell not to run glycolysis and gluconeogenesis at high rate simultaneously because body carry out various metabolic pathaways with respect to body"s  requirement for metabolites .

Explanation:

Human bodyphysiology helps to maintain homeostasis of various metabolic intermediates within our body.

                It is not that the glycolytic intermediates and end product such as pyruvate always enter the gluconeogenesis process because pyruvate have different metabolic fates beside acting as a precursor for glucose biosynthesis.

            Cell does not require glycolytic intermediates and gluconeogenesis intermediates at the same time.

           That"s why it is important for the cell not to run glycolysis and gluconeogenesis simultaneously.

How do we classify rocks
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Rocks can be divided into three basic classifications: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. The following tests are used by experts to classify rocks: Hardness Test Minerals are scaled in range from 1 to 10, with 1 being softest and 10 hardest. The method of determining hardness is the scratch test.
