Answer:
The correct answer is "C. Cave fish have evolved degenerated eyes because they have no use for vision in dark, underwater caves."
Explanation:
All of these statements about organism adaptation to its environment are true, but the real reason why cave-fish are blind is not because there's no use for their eyes in the dark, but because being blind saves them energy, as using one's vision requires the activity of photoreceptive cells and neurons, and underground caves are lacking in both food and oxygen.
Answer:
(A). Result in different amino acids to be read due to frame shifts
Explanation:
Insertion or deletion mutations (or Indel mutations) can be defined as mutations in DNA due to insertion (addition) or deletion of nucleotide bases in DNA.
These mutations lead to change in reading frames (sequence of codons), which leads to formation of protein having completely different amino acid sequence. Hence, these mutations are also cause frameshift mutations.
This is due due to triplet nature of genetic codes as insertion or deletion of one or more bases (but not three) would change change in codon sequence and mutated sequence can form a non-functional or truncated protein.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
It is true, it does release hydrogen ions in a water base.
Answer:
Explanation:
If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because
they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-
•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency
• Trait tend to skip generations
• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents
• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected
• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.
The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.
