Answer:

Due to the presence of high level of bilirubin.

Explanation:

Jaundice is the condition in which the skin and sclera of eyes turns into yellow. Improper functioning of liver mainly causes the jaundice condition in an individual.

The skin and body turns yellow in jaundice because the bilirubin pigment is deposited in the blood. The bile juice of the liver mixes with the blood and causes the yellowing of the skin.

Answer:

radioactivity will not be able to tell the difference between the DNA and proteins

Explanation:

It seems that the experiment will fail to show what Hershey and Chase showed because they modify some of the aspects. These modifications will cause changes to the results, the main one being that radioactivity will not be able to tell the difference between the DNA and proteins. This is because Amino Acids are proteins that also contain nitrogen atoms, thus labeling the nitrogen would include all DNA and proteins. This being the main reason why Hershey and Chase decided to label the DNA instead.

Answer:

<u>Option-</u>

As many believe after doing an extensive form of research work of years that reptiles are the ancestors of the mammals that we see now. Which means that we mammals evolved from the pre-historic form of reptiles.

Explanation:

Fossils of Thrinaxodon, a species that lived during the Triassic period, have been found in both South Africa and Antarctica. Thrinaxodon had a reptile-like skeleton and laid eggs, but small depressions on the front of its skull suggest it had whiskers and, therefore, fur. Thrinaxodon may have been warm-blooded. The fossils of Thrinaxodon are consistent with the hypothesis that <u>mammals evolved from the pre-historic reptiles.</u>
