Extinction of species reduces the number of different species in ecosystems, hence lowering the diversity of living things.
DNA ligase is an enzyme that repairs irregularities or breaks in the backbone of double-stranded DNA molecules. It has important role in the process of DNA replication and DNA repair. It has three general functions: It seals repairs in the DNA, it seals recombination fragments, and it connects Okazaki fragments (small DNA fragments formed during the replication of double-stranded DNA). DNA ligase functions by forming a bond between the end of a “donor” nucleotide and the end of an “acceptor” nucleotide.

Answer:
Elastic fibers are made of elastin and microfibrils, that are elastic protein structures. The proteins can be stretched and resume normal shape. These fibers are found in parts of the body such as arteries, skin, lungs, connective tissue and heart that require some stretching. Marfan syndrome affects the elastic connective tissues causing symptoms like dilation of the aorta that doesn't resume normal lumen diameter (aortic aneurysm), and curving of the spine (scoliosis).
The lungs are unable to stretch and resume shape normally and this affects the respiratory system. The subjects will suffer from shortness of breath, wheezing and chest pain.
The sheath/endoneurium of neurons is connective tissue. This part of a neuron allows signals to travel effeciently along the axon of the neuron. This means that a person with Mafran syndrome has a slower response to stimuli that ordinary persons.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>A plasma membrane is the cellular structure that makes it possible for a cell to differ structurally and biochemically from its surroundings. </em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
<em>Plasma membrane</em> is the surrounding of all the cells. The function of plasma membrane in a cell is to regulate the incoming and outgoing elements from the cell.
<em>Phospholipid bilayer</em> is the main composition of plasma membrane. It makes the cell different from each other structurally as well as makes the cell different in <em>chemical composition </em>too.
