You have identified a previously unknown human gene that appears to have a role in autism. It is similar enough in DNA sequence

to a known mouse gene that you believe that the two genes may be evolutionarily related. You determine and compare the DNA sequences, the predicted mRNA sequences, and the predicted amino acid sequences corresponding to the two genes. You would expect to find the greatest sequence similarity from comparisons of the two:
a. DNA sequences (13.6%)
  b. mRNA sequences (3.9%)
  c. Amino acid sequences (51.5%)
  d. All three comparisons are likely to show the same degree of sequence similarity (31.0%)

Answer:

Amino acid sequences

Explanation:

The proteins perform the vast majority of functions in the cells. If a gene between a human and a mouse is evolutionarily related, it means that the function they do in the cell is quite similar in both species. This is the reason why the amino acid sequence would be the most similar.

In addition, there might be certain mutations in the DNA and therefore in the RNA between this 2 sequences that encode to the same amino acid sequence. More specifically speaking, there are more than one codon that encode to the same aminoacid. Thus, 2 different DNA/RNA sequence can give the same aminoacid sequence.

Minchanka [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Carrying capacity can be defined as the total number of members of the population of a species that an ecosystem can sustain in terms of providing resources in the form of food, shelter and others. When the resources are available in surplus then the population of a species increases exponentially but declines when resources become scarce. The human population is increasing tremendously all over the world this is supported by the resources like food, water, fossil fuels, air, minerals, and others. But some of these resources are decreasing due to overuse and may not be available in future to sustain the future generation.

Answer:

b) Bioremediation

Explanation:

The use of natural occuring or intentionally introduced micoorganisms to treat environmental pollutants is called as Bioremediation.

  • Most of the bioremediation processes includes oxidation-reduction reaction.
  • The natural degradation process of pollutants is improved by bioremediation.
  • Green plant, Decomposers and their enzymes are used in bioremediation to imrprove the condition of the environment.
