Answer:

C. Chiasma

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are a pair of chromosomes which are identical with respect to the location of the genes, the centromere, and length.

An individual inherits a pair of homologous chromosomes (one form each parent) and these chromosomes pair up during meiosis to exchange genetic material.

The site where this exchange occurs is called the chiasma, which is the point where the two chromosomes come in contact with each other and exchange the material. This is known as crossing over.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The importance of the AUG and UGA bases lies in the fact that the first one is a start codon and the second one is a stop codon, respectively (option a).

Explanation:

Codons or triplets are sequences of three nitrogenous bases, in the mRNA, that determine the synthesis of a specific amino acid.

  • <em>AUG </em><em>is called the </em><em>initiation or start codon</em><em>, and is usually at the beginning of a peptide synthesis, in addition to encoding the amino acid methionine. </em>
  • <em>UGA</em><em> is a</em><em> termination or stop codon</em><em> found at the end of a petid chain when it is complete.  UAA and UAG codons are also STOP or termination codons and, together with UGA, do not code for amino acids.</em>

The biological importance of start and stop codons is to initiate the synthesis of a protein and to stop the addition of amino acids when their size is adequate.

skad [1K]

Explanation:

It should be in this order from oldest to youngest: 2,1,5,7,9,3,4,8,6.

Since we know 2 is the oldest and once each organism goes extinct it stops being in any samples, we can start at 2 and go through the samples to see where that fossil shows up again and when we find the next sample its in, we pay attention to any new fossils that show up and move onto the next sample with the second fossil in it and so on.
