What kind of mutations were more beneficial ? Why ?
Alex
A mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. This can be beneficial if the change gives a new function to or improves the function of that gene. 

<span>The above is a definition. But one must really define "beneficial". Some regard it as beneficial if it helps the specific individual who has it. Others would think it beneficial if it produced some survival advantage that insured more descendents for that individual. </span>

<span>It is the difference between a mutation that allowed for greater athletic ability, but a decreased desire for offspring, versus a more moderate athletic enhancement, but a greater desire for offspring. </span>

<span>The small percentage of ways to improve an organism, versus the near infinite ways of harming the organism, mean that most mutations are not going to be beneficial. At best, they will be "inconsequential" - such as a new shade of eye color, or a mole on a section of your skin. </span>

The populist notion of "powers" that can come from mutations is wildly inaccurate. Even assuming a minor power like the ability to see infra red radiation would take thousands upon thousands of mutations over vast amounts of time. A mutation for blindness is far more likely.

<span>It should also be noted that the traditional model of evolutionary theory no longer applies to man. We don't allow changes in our environment, and without such changes, there is no need for one trait more than another to predominate. After all, it is irrelevent that a mutation might allow for greater speed in running, when everyone drives a car.</span>

Describe the means by which Hershey and Chase established that only the DNA of a phage enters an E. coli cell. What conclusions
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Harshey and chase labeled T2 bacteriophage with radioactive sulfur and radioactive phosphorus. As DNA contains phosphorus, not protein and protein contain sulfur, not phosphorus, therefore, the presence of radioactivity in cell can determine which is the genetic material .

Then Harshey and Chase infected <em>E.coli</em> with T2 bacteriophage and centrifuged the cell. They found radioactive phosphorus in cell pellet and radioactive sulfur in supernatant.

So by this experiment, they concluded and proved that DNA is the genetic material that gets transfer from one generation to another.

What type of intelligence refers to a person's ability to reason speedily and abstractly?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a. Fluid intelligence

Explanation:

Cattell-Horn's theory of fluid and crystallized intelligence suggests that intelligence is composed of a series of different skills that interact and work together to produce general individual intelligence.

<u> Fluid intelligence</u> implies being able to think and reason abstractly and solve problems. This ability is considered independent of learning, experience and education. It is basically configured by primary skills such as induction, deduction, relationships and figurative classifications, breadth of associative memory and intellectual speed, among others. It reaches its maximum splendor in the early twenties and tends to decrease in parallel to the aging and deterioration of neurons. This ability can be measured from tests that measure the biological potential of the individual to learn or acquire knowledge.

suter [353]
