<span>When you talk about species in a scientific context, you would want to make sure that you are not misunderstood. Therefore, it is good to use names that are the same everywhere: and using Latin names is the convention, this way people from other countries will understand you too! So the problem is that common names are different in different languages (=correct answer). (Actually this also makes them differ in different locations and cultures, but it's secondary to language)</span>

The existence of introns in mRNA-encoding genes seems to be a problem because so much cellular energy goes into splicing them ou
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

In normal conditions, introns serve following functions in the body of an organism:

1) They contain genes of miRNA which are known as Mirtrons, reverse transcriptase, endonucleases, transposase etc.

2) It is because of presence of introns that alternative splicing of mRNA is possible. The sex determination in drosophila is based on alternative splicing.

Apart from this, alternative splicing can be useful and beneficial in an unforeseen situation such as an environmental problem which is faced by the organism for the first time.

Explanation:

Alternative splicing is an important mechanism because with the help of alternative splicing different type of proteins can be synthesized from the same pre mRNA transcript. In case suddenly the surrounding environment of an organism is changed and the environmental conditions have become extremely harsh due to which organism's life is at stake, in such situation organism may make a different type of protein through alternative splicing which can help the organism in survival.  

Default splicing in Drosophila leads to the development of male off-spring while female off-spring is produced as a result of alternative splicing.

Why might introduction of exotic species disrupt and ecosystem?
Tanya [424]
Exotic species do not have a niche in the ecosystem that they are in. Therefore they take up resources that native species rely on to survive. Exotic species also have no natural predators in that environment causing them to flourish and multiply quickly.
