Why two things can happen if a cell has DNA that is so damaged it cannot be repaired

Biology

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]3 years ago

In contrast to DNA damage, a mutation is a change in the base sequence of the DNA. A mutation cannot be recognized by enzymes once the base change is present in both DNA strands, and thus a mutation cannot be repaired. At the cellular level, mutations can cause alterations in protein function and regulation

B) The mutation is beneficial and allows those who have it to reproduce more than average.


If the mutation is beneficial, it will become common in a population since the individual(s) that have this beneficial mutation will survive longer to produce more offspring that have this mutation. These offspring will also live longer and spread this mutation through the gene pool through reproduction.


Hope this helps :)

Name two types of evidence used to support the theory of evolution. explain how scientist use each type of evidence to provide s
joja [24]

Answer:

There are many types of evidence which support the theory of evolution such as comparative anatomy, fossil records, phylogenetic relationship, embryology et cetera

Comparative anatomy includes homologous organs and analogous organs. They support divergent and convergent evolution respectively.  

For example, the homologous structure of limb of humans, birds, bat, horse, whale et cetera show that they are made up of the same set of bones which are humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.  

It shows divergent evolution and supports that these organisms have evolved from a common ancestor.

Embryological evidence: When early stages of embryological development of different organisms are compared, it is found that these stages are similar at different levels of development.

For example:

  • The appearance of pharyngeal-arch (gill-like structures) in vertebrates during embryo development.
  • Salamanders and terrestrial frogs pass through larval stages within an egg. They possess the features similar to aquatic larvae, however, when they hatched out the eggs being ready for life on land.
