Genetics affects speciation mostly via mutation caused due to adaptation and environmental conditions.

Explanation:

The Speciation is defined as the evolution of a species into a distinct species. The cause of this could be several, and some of them could be environmental conditions, mutations, etc

Environmental conditions include isolation of the species caused by mountain rise, river, flood etc. to survive they have to evolve or get adaptations to living in those conditions

Mutation happens for many reasons, external factors can also cause the mutations to occur. It will also lead to speciation.

Answer:

UCAACUUGA

Explanation:

Since the question is asking for the equivalent sequence and not the complementary sequence, this is the answer. Thymine (T) base pairs are replaced by uracil (U) in RNA.

If the question were asking for the complementary RNA sequence, then your answer would be AGUUGAACU.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

A. Chloroplasts and mitochondria replicate in a similar manner as some prokaryotes

Explanation:

Endosymbiont theory deals with how eukaryotic organisms were formed from prokaryotic organisms. Prokaryotes such as Bacteria were documented as the first form of life on earth through fossil records before eukaryotes came into light.

Organelles such as Chloroplasts and mitochondria replicate in a similar manner as some prokaryotes. This supports the endosymbiont theory that present-day eukaryotic cells are descendants of a successful symbiotic relationship between a host cell and an engulfed prokaryote
