Since homologous chromosomes do not come from the same organism and are not identical, matched chromosomes carrying information about the same characteristics in the organism are called homologous chromosomes.

Answer:

The correct answer would be homologous chromosomes.

Homologous chromosomes refer to the pair of chromosomes in which one chromosome is inherited from father and the other one is inherited from the mother.

They are similar in length, centromere location and contain the same set of genes that too on the same loci.  

The genes on the same loci contain information about the same characteristics in an organism, however, they may contain different alleles associated with the same character.

True or False: Evolution is a theory, which is a well substantiated explanation for observable facts.
melisa1 [442]

Yes, it is true that evolution  is a theory, which is a well substantiated explanation for observable facts.

Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. These characteristics are the expressions of genes that are passed on from parent to offspring during reproduction.

Different characteristics tend to exist within any given population as a result of mutation, genetic recombination and other sources of genetic variation.

Evolution occurs when evolutionary processes such as natural selection (including sexual selection) and genetic drift act on this variation, resulting in certain characteristics becoming more common or rare within a population.

The evolutionary pressures that determine whether a characteristic would be common or rare within a population constantly change, resulting in a change in heritable characteristics arising over successive generations. It is this process of evolution that has given rise to biodiversity at every level of biological organisation, including the levels of species, individual organisms and molecules.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

FOX promotes the expression of the gene HOUND indirectly.

Explanation:

It is likely that there is another protein (protein X) that is involved. For example FOX maybe increasing the expression of protein X which may activate the expression of the HOUND gene through cell signalling or protein-protein interactions.

There are two types of ocean currents, surface current and deep currents. 
Surface currents which are caused by winds,move warm water away from the equator and cool water away from the poles. Deep currents on the other hand are driven by differences in water density.
