Very different looking anoles on the same Caribbean Islands that have similar DNA sequences are evidence of:

1 answer:

3 0

Similar DNA sequences would be indicative of a recent common ancestor hence the answer should be divergent evolution as the different appearances are evidence of divergence from a common ancestor.

It is unlikely to be convergent evolution as convergent evolution likely results in animals with similar appearances. Convolution would indicate similar modes of evolution between 2 different species that aided each other over time. While this is a product of gradualism, this is not evidence for gradualism directly.

WITCHER [35]

<h3>It depends on which is the dominant and which is recessive for starters let's say yellow is dominant (Y,Y) and green is recessive (g,g). 100% percent of them will be yellow carrying the green recessive trait if it's proposed as this (Y,y) (G,G) it will be 50% yellow and 50% green, (y,y) (G,G) it will be 100% green </h3>

What is the purpose of the hormone thyroxine, which is produced by the thyroid gland?

shepuryov [24]

The principal function of thyroxine is to stimulate the consumption of oxygen and thus the metabolism of all cells and tissues.

Thyroxine is termed T4. It travels through the blood to the target cells and becomes converted to triiodothyronine or T3.

T3 is the active form of thyroxine. T3 enters the target cell's nucleus binding to genes responsible or involved in the metabolism of sugar in the body. T3 stimulates these genes and in so doing metabolism (conversion of oxygen and calories to energy) is carried out by the cell, which also results in generation of body heat.
