Answer:

Explanation:

Whales and humans have alot of things in common, they are the largest groups of mammals in the world.

Whales which belong to cetaceans(group of marine mammals) can be considered human, they possess self awareness, feelings and high-level cognitive power than man.

They have large brain size which suggests that they have a complex and elaborate evolutionary history.

Humpback cerebral cortex, the part of the brain where though processes takes place are similar to that of man. Humpback whales exhibit complex social patterns that include good communication skills, collaboration and good tool usage.

Whales and human are quite social in nature.

However, when the proteins formed by the genes have their amino acids sequenced, there is no difference observed between the two
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Variation in nucleotide sequences are located in those regions of the gene which do not affect the sequence of the protein due to genetic code degeneracy.

Explanation:

  • Proteins are encoded from the genes located in the chromosomes.
  • The genes are made up of the heritable DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) sequences.
  • These genes are transcribed by the enzyme called RNA polymerase into mRNA (messenger Ribonucleic Acid) sequences in the nucleus.
  • The mRNA is then translated into protein sequences by the Ribosome in the cytoplasm or the RER (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum).
  • The Ribosome reads the mRNA code in form of triplets, that is, three consecutive nucleotide are read as a single code that encode for a single amino acid. This triplet code that responsible for coding for a single amino acid is called a Codon.
  • The Codons are degenerate in nature. This means that among the three nucleotide in a codon the first two nucleotide is specific for a particular amino acid. The third nucleotide is "wobble" in nature. This means that whatever may be the nucleotide in the third position it will not change the amino acid coded by the first two nucleotide.
  • Hence, a single amino acid is coded by more than one codon.
  • So, gene sequences showing variation in the wobble nucleotide position will encode for the same protein.
