Mkey [24]3 years ago
4 0

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.

rewona [7]
Restriction Enzymes
                                 These enzymes are produced by bacteria. they have the ability to cleave DNA fragment a specific recognition site. They are also known as restriction endonucleases or molecular scissors. On the basis of sub unit composition, cleavage position, sequence specificity and co-factor requirements they are classified into four groups.

In gel electrophoresis DNA fragments are separated according to size. Large DNA fragments not move very far because of their large molecular size they can not travel.
In this case hybridize mean to measure the degree of genetic similarity between two pools of DNA sequence.

Purpose of DNA probe hybridization
                                                               Hybridization probe is 100-1000 bp long strand which is radioactively labelled. It is used to determine the presence of nucleotides in DNA which is complementary to sequence in DNA probe.
