Answer:
The correct answer is "C. Cave fish have evolved degenerated eyes because they have no use for vision in dark, underwater caves."
Explanation:
All of these statements about organism adaptation to its environment are true, but the real reason why cave-fish are blind is not because there's no use for their eyes in the dark, but because being blind saves them energy, as using one's vision requires the activity of photoreceptive cells and neurons, and underground caves are lacking in both food and oxygen.
When a frameshift mutation occurs, the string of DNA will be glued together. When this DNA is going to be part of a process, such as a transcription, whatever is causing the process is unaware of the mutation actually having happened.
Answer:
It means that the cell membrane allows certain substances to pass through and not others. As the cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with a hydrophobic core, only small uncharged hydrophobic molecules can pass through the cell membrane e.g. glucocorticoid and other larger charged particles require transporters or channel proteins to pass through the cell membrane, e.g. glucose.
Answer:
E. Gene is amplified by multiplication of cloning host
Explanation:
PCR is a very powerful technique that can help us to amplify exponentially one gene from a very small sample of DNA.
As seen in the attached image, the process begins with a single DNA molecule, for the first cycle, that DNA molecule denaturalizes into two strands, the primers bind to their complementary sides and then the DNA polymerase builds the new DNA strands. The number of copies of the gene that can be obtained with each cycle are 2ⁿ copies, where n is the cycle number.
