Answer:
Where are the statements?
Explanation:
In diseases, similar patterns of mutations in harmless genes may possibly be a cause or an effect of the disease. To investigate if it is a cause, it is worth looking into the proteins synthesized by the gene and whether it’s structure or functionality is affected by the pattern observed. It is also worth looking into the downstream effects possibly caused by the pattern in the gene. The gene may encode a non coding region which could affect post transcriptional splicing for example.
Answer:
becomes accumulated in the blood
Explanation:
The processing of alcohol is constant in every individual. The rate at which alcohol stays in someone's body is determined by how much of it is consumed.
Alcohol enters the digestive system once ingested and travels to the stomach and small intestines. The amount of alcohol absorbed in the small intestine enters directly to the bloodstream. Once in the blood, alcohol is circulated with it. The liver is responsible for the metabolic elimination of most (about 95%) of ingested alcohol from the body. If an individual consumes more than this, the system becomes saturated, and the additional alcohol will accumulate in the blood and other tissues until it can be metabolized. If this happens frequently or too fast, damage to the brain and tissues of the body can occur.
Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) depends on the amount of alcohol consumed and the rate at which the individual's body metabolizes alcohol. Because the metabolism of alcohol by the body is constant, taking in alcohol at a rate higher than the rate of metabolizing it results in a cumulative effect and increase in the blood alcohol concentration.
It is important to note that, the more one drinks the longer alcohol stays in the system.
1-The correct answers is C- evolutionary classification.
Evolutionary classification/taxonomy is a branch of biological classification. The objective is to classify organisms and group them based on their shared descent, progenitor-descendant relationship and degree of evolutionary change. Now this classification can be done by comparing DNA sequences of the organisms and seeing how many they have in common
2- The correct answer is A-cladistic analysis.
A cladistic analysis is focused on categorizing the organisms based on their derived characters. And what is that? that means they are getting categorized
according to their evolutionary relationships( from ancestral characters).
So, species are going to be classified according to how recent their common ancestor is. If two species have a more recent ancestor they will end up in the same group
If the common ancestor between them is far, the distance between the respective taxa will be bigger.
3- The correct answers is C.
A derived character is a characteristic that appeared throughout evolution, still remains in a lot of different taxonomic groups and allows us to identify those groups.
From the options given, C is the only correct one because the presence of hair (a derived character) only exists in mammals( the group). Other animals don't share that trait.
4-The answer is A.
In each node, a taxon was only one but then was divided into two taxa. Therefore, each node will represent a common ancestor of the taxon.
The correct option is A because the last node or terminal node is the hypothetical last common ancestor of the taxon on the cladogram.
5- The correct answer is A.-DNA can solve evolutionary puzzles.
Dna has been helping understand how an organism is similar to more than one species, and that way, we can classify the organism the best way possible.
This can be achieved by comparing the nucleotides of the organism we want to classify, with other species. There are databases that have all the DNA sequenced so, what's left to do is count the common nucleotides and their positions.
