Scientists have debated the evolution of three life forms: reptiles, birds and dinosaurs. After many years of reviewing fossil r

ecords scientists proposed the evolutionary relationship seen above in the cladogram. Using radiometric dating scientists added a time frame for the evolution of the animals within the model. Based on this new information, what prediction can we make about the animals represented here? MYA refers to millions of years ago. A) Dinosaurs were the last to evolve among these groups of animals. B) Crocodiles are the most highly evolved of the animals represented here. C) Dinosaurs lived and became extinct before the arrival of lizards and snakes. D) Turtles were the first group of animals to branch off in this tree of animals.

D) Turtles were the first group of animals to branch off in this tree of animals.

Turtles were the first group of animals to branch off in this tree of animals. According to the tree, the animals share a common ancestor. The first branch shows that what we call a speciation event occurred, resulting in two lineages. The first group of animals to result were the turtles. All the other animals are on the other branch. This does not indicate that any group is more highly evolved than the other.

What happens as a result of osmosis when an animal cell containing 1% sugar is placed in pure water
Mama L [17]

The process of osmosis is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

If 1% sugar solution is placed in pure water, then there would be a higher concentration of water molecules outside the cell compared to inside the cell. The solution outside the cell would be hypo-tonic (containing fewer solute molecules than inside the cell). Water will move into the cell by inward osmosis and the cell would then swell.

What is the purpose of alternative splicing in eukaryotic cells? What is the purpose of alternative splicing in eukaryotic cells
Komok [63]

Answer:

Produce multiple polypeptide sequences from a single primary transcript.

Explanation:

Some genes produce more than one type of protein since the primary transcript encoded by these genes undergoes alternative splicing. These genes mostly have one segment that can serve either as intron or exon. Also called differential splicing, alternative splicing removes the segment as intron but retains it as an exon.

Splicing of the single primary transcript in different ways produces more than one version of mRNA from a single primary transcript encoded by a single gene. The alternative splicing allows the cells to produce multiple types of troponin proteins from single genes. These different troponin regulation muscle contraction in different muscles
