The human genome project identified the sequence of base pairs in human DNA and identified several genes. Which question would l

east likely lead to a scientific investigation based on these findings? Are certain humans more likely to develop genetic diseases? How can DNA be used to identify criminals? Can drugs be developed to target certain genes? Should there be laws to protect DNA information

Answer:

The correct answer is- Should there be laws to protect DNA information

Explanation:

The goal of the human genome project was to identify all the base pair sequences present in the human genome and all the genes present in the human chromosome.

So after the completion of the human genome project, many more than 1800 disease genes have been identified. So the human genome project is helpful in the investigation of genetic disease and their treatment.

Scientific investigation does not have any role in making laws related to the protection of DNA information. Only the government of a country has the power to make law on any issue like this.  

Therefore, the correct answer is should there be laws to protect DNA information.

The reason that there are Okazaki fragments during DNA replication is ultimately because:
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

B) Polymerases can only synthesize in the 5' to 3' direction

Explanation:

The leading strand's directionality is 3' to 5', so polymerase has no problem with replicating this one. But the lagging strand has the opposite directionality, so the polymerase must work in the opposite direction of the replication fork.In consequence, the replication process undergoes periodic breaks, and the enzymes have to stop and start again while helicase separates both strands, resulting in the polymerization of okazaki fragments.

The species diversity of an evolutionary lineage will increase when more new member species originate than are lost to extinctio
lesantik [10]

Answer:

A. 2 speciation events and 5 extinctions

B. 5 speciation events and 1 extinction

Explanation:

As we can see from the diagram, there were only 2 ,aim speciation events for lineage A. The extinction events were 5 for the A lineage. Hence, as the extinction event was more rapid than the speciation event so lineage A contains only one species.

On the other hand, the diagram shows that for lineage B there were 5 speciation events and just 1 extinction event. Hence, the number of species in lineage B were more at the time zero as just one extinction had occurred.

How many neutrons does the element sodium (Na) contain?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a) 12 neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is 22.990, which can be rounded to 23 and is the combination of protons and neutrons. The atomic number is 11 (protons), and 23-11=12, whoch would be the neutron number

Hope this helps :)
