Answer:

A. 1' ... 5'

Explanation:

The pentose sugars present in nucleotides have five-carbon structures. Other components of a nucleotide are a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous base in a nucleotide can be a purine or pyrimidine. The purine bases are covalently joined to the 1' carbon atom of the pentose sugar at their N-9. The bond between the nitrogenous base and a pentose sugar is called the N-beta glycosyl bond.

Similarly, N-1 of a pyrimidine base is covalently linked to the 1' carbon of the pentose sugar. The phosphate group of a nucleotide is bonded to the 5' carbon of the pentose sugar.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c, that is, alternative splicing.

Explanation:

When a solitary pre-mRNA molecule is processed in two or more than two ways to produce two or more RNA it is known as alternative splicing. This distinct RNA post-translation produces different products of genes. It takes place when one 5 prime splice site of the intron is associated with more than one 3 prime splice sites and is possibly mediated by the structural conformation of RNA and some of the splicing regulators, like SR protein.  

The alternative splicing takes place distinctly in different cell types and is also monitored by the cell type-specific factor. The remaining of the options are not correct as these options are related to the process control mechanism.

How to compare directional and disruptive selection?
dangina [55]
 Both of th
 <span>Both of these show the distribution of phenotypes. In directional selection, the distribution of phenotypes forms a "bell curve." Selection against one of the extreme phenotypes causes the distribution to "move" in one direction or the other. An example might be plants whose flower color is determined by incomplete dominance: white, pink, or red. Pink flowers may be the average phenotype, but if we start to remove red flowers from the population, the "mean" phenotype will be shifted toward white flowers. 
In disruptive selection, the average phenotype is selected against. This produces a "two-humped" bell-type curve, and the greater distribution is split between the two phenotype extremes. If we have the same type of incomplete dominance as mentioned in the previous paragraph, assume that the pink flowers are selected against. This means that the two "humps" shown in the distribution will be centered around the red and white phenotypes</span>

In what way does heredity influence the environment
Artemon [7]

The genetic-environmental correlation theory claims that our genes have an impact on the surroundings we are exposed to. Passive correlation, in which the youngster has little control, is typical in younger children. Parents shape their children's environment, which is linked to genetics.
