How does meiosis play a role in the evolution of a species
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option B. it increases the amount of genetic variation in the species.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that takes place in sex cells or reproductive cells. There is crossing over takes place which is a process where the genetic exchange of chromosomes occurs between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.

The crossing over leads to the new genetic combinations of genetic material which result in the genetic variation in species. This variation plays a role in the natural selection and evolution of species.

If you were designing a method to specifically inhibit prokaryotic transcription, but not eukaryotic transcription, interfering
kobusy [5.1K]

The correct answer is: B) recognition of the prokaryotic promoter by RNA polymerase

The similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription are that DNA is template used for the mRNA synthesis and that this is process is facilitated by the enzyme RNA polymerase.  

One of the difference between this process in eukaryotes and in prokaryotes is the promoter region: eukaryotes contain TATA box and CAT box, while prokaryotes don’t (they have  Pribnow box that is similar to the TATA box). Promoter region in prokaryotes is always upstream to the start site, while in eukaryotes it can be downstream.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Since the 2 strands of DNA are antiparallel to on another, DNA must be replicated both continuously and dis-continuously. The side of DNA that is replicated dis-continuously is done so in small parts called <u>okazaki fragments</u>.

Explanation:

OKAZAKI FRAGMENTS -  Okazaki fragments are short DNA nucleotide sequences (roughly 150 to 200 base pairs in eukaryotes) that are synthesized in a non-linear fashion and then linked together by the enzyme DNA ligase to form the lagging strand during DNA replication.    They shape short double-stranded DNA sections when combined with the lagging template strand.

The primosome initiates Okazaki fragments by generating a new RNA primer. To restart DNA synthesis, the DNA clamp loader releases the lagging strand from the sliding clamp and reattaches the clamp to the new RNA primer. DNA polymerase III will then synthesize the segment of DNA.

Reiji Okazaki, Tsuneko Okazaki, and their colleagues first found Okazaki fragments in 1968 while researching bacteriophage DNA replication in E. coli.
