Rocky mountain juniper (juniperus scopulorum) and one-seeded juniper (j. monosperma) have overlapping ranges. pollen grains (whi

ch contain sperm nuclei) from one species are unable to germinate and make pollen tubes to bring the sperm nuclei to the female ovules (which contain egg cells) of the other species. these two juniper species are kept separate by ________.

Answer:

Mechanical isolation

Explanation:

mechanical isolation is a form of prezygotic reproductive barrier, whereby similar species organisms become isolated and unable to successfully interbreed with each other to form zygote, as a result of incompatibility of their reproductive organ or structure, which prevents them from copulating. As a result of this, both species become separated as there is no gene flow between both.

The two species of juniper can be said to be kept separate by <em>mechanical isolation</em>, due to the differences and incompatibility of their reproductive structure.

Mechanical isolation

Mechanical isolation occurs when two organisms of the same species are unable to copulate because of the differences in their reproductive organs. In flowering plants, differences in the structure of the reproductive parts may also hinder pollination. From the question given above, even though the two plants have overlapping ranges, the pollen grains from one species are unable to grow thus disallowing the pollen tubes to connect or transport the sperm nuclei to the female ovules of the other species where the fertilization of the eggs will occur. These two species are said to be isolated mechanically.

After meiosis II is complete how many copies of gene A does each of the daughter cells have?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

  • Meiosis is the process where gametes are produced. During meiosis, a diploid cell duplicates its DNA and undergoes 2 cell divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II)
  • A diploid cell has 2 copies of every gene.
  • Once its DNA is duplicated, there are 4 copies of every gene.
  • After the cell division at meiosis I, there are two cells with 2 copies of every gene
  • After the cell division at meiosis II, there are four cells with 1 copy of every gene.

How does the proofreading mechanisms in viruses affect the frequency of the mutations a virus typically undergoes?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

DNA polymerases are the enzymes that build DNA in cells. DNA polymerase also proofread their work to check for any error the process of which is called proof reading.

If the polymerase detects that an Incorrectly paired nucleotide has been added, it will remove (splicing) and replace the nucleotide with the correct one before it continues with DNA synthesis.

Mismatch repairing also corrects other errors that omit proofreading. They fix mismatched base pairs, replace some insertion and deleted base pair that can result into mutations.

When an error is corrected the rate of mutation is reduced this is because mutation results from error during the DNA formation process either through Insertion of a wrong nitrogenous base, or deletion leading to formation of an entirely new amino acid sequence that result into abnormal phenotype.
