Possible answers:

A= DNA Replication

B= Crossing over

C= A mutation

D= Meiosis

Answer:

C

Explanation:

DNA replication should copy the DNA exactly, so should not produce any changes to the DNA sequence.

Crossing over does not occur in prokaryotes, it only occurs in eukaryotes. The same is true for meiosis, it does not occur in prokaryotes as it is a specialized type of cell division that creates gametes in multicellular organisms

Mutations create changes to the DNA sequence. By chance, occasionally these changes can be beneficial and give the new cell an evolutionary advantage. For example resistance to antibiotics, or an ability to digest a new nutrient.

Why do scientists prefer to have more than one theory about something
Advocard [28]

Having one theory is setting a limit on your potential and the potential of the overall theory and subject you are working on. Having multiple theories gives you a broader idea and perspective of what is going on, and even though one may slightly contradict the other, it is okay because that is what theories are for.

To the point, scientists usually have more than one theory so that they can gain a broader perspective on the matter and maybe even increase the chance of being correct on the matter.


Hope this was helpful.

Cheers,

What is the best explanation if the gel of your PCR product shows smeared bands of multiple sizes? Select one:
trapecia [35]

Answer:

e. None of the above

Explanation:

For me as a Researcher, the reason could be increased Concentration of your DNA sample which you are using as your template. Try to decrease the concentration of DNA (up to 100 ng per reaction is enough and can increase up to 200 ng). so the reason for getting non specific bands is increase concentration of DNA  which results in non specific amplification and also degradation of DNA in the reaction which you can see in your gel electrophoresis results.  

i always corrected my results using the same technique that is lowering the concentration of DNA between 100 and 200 ng per single reaction of PCR.

When individuals of the same species are reproductively isolated, genetic differences may accumulate in sufficient number so tha
sdas [7]

Answer:

macroevolution

Explanation:

Macroevolution occurs due to the genetic differences accumulates in the population of the same species which gets reproductively isolated from the older population and got different environments and resources to live.

Macroevolution leads to the creation of a new species over a long period of time because of the genetic difference that occurs due to mutation in the gene in the population who got reproductively isolated. So the new species evolved from the macroevolution.
