Answer:
Epigenetic phenomena
Explanation:
Epigenetics involves the changes in gene expression which is not as a result of changes in an individual's DNA sequence. In other words, it is a change in an individual's phenotype, without an alteration in the genotype.
It is involved in the normal functioning of cellular processes.
Examples of epigenetics is DNA methylation ( adding of a methyl group to a section of the DNA molecule) and histone modification such as histone acetylation (adding an acetyl group to the histone).
Epigenetic changes can switch off genes, hence, prevent the expression of those genes; it can also turn on genes, hence increase the expression of those genes.
Epigenetic changes can also results to diseases such as cancer.
Answer:
These shared features suggest that all living things are descended from a common ancestor, and that this ancestor had DNA as its genetic material, used the genetic code, and expressed its genes by transcription and translation.
Explanation:
Answer:
(4) is bred and the trait is capable of being inherited
Explanation:
<u>Mutation generally refers to a sudden change to the DNA sequence in the genome of an organism.</u>
Since, DNA is the molecules responsible for heredity and the inheritance of traits by offspring from their parents, a mutation should be inheritable.
<em>Hence, if a sudden appearance of hairlessness in one of the puppies is observed by a dog breeder, he/she can effectively conclude that the situation is caused by a mutation if the affected dog is bred with another dog and the hairlessness is observed in any of the resulting progeny.</em>
Option 4 is the correct option.
