How did the discovery of ribozymes assist in creating a plausible model for the prebiotic origin of life?

Biology
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
3 0
Ribozymes are biochemically too complex to have ever produced themselves naturalistically. They are an intermediate cellular functioning assembly that cannot survive on its own and they are too restrictive in function to enable metabolism and reproduction at the level of criticality to be considered plausible for life.

Their simplicity relative to RNA and DNA make them an attractive possibility, but they are not strategic enough, robust enough or in any producible using naturalistic processes.

Why does a pea plant with the genotype Rr produce some gametes that have the allele for round seeds?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - due to the law of segregation.

Explanation:

In the given case the genotype of Rr and as we know R is a dominant characteristic for round seeds and r represents the recessive allele for wrinkled seeds in a pea plant. So if a plant has Rr in its genotype it means it is a phenotypically round pea plant due to dominance in this heterozygous case.

The law of segregation states that two alleles of a gene of a specific trait will be distributed randomly and there is an equal chance of each allele to end up in the gametes, similarly in this case both alleles can be segregated to gametes and it is a random process.

All of them are correct soil erosion turns grains of soil into mere grains of sand which when placed in water makes the water much cloudier, biodiversity will decrease as soil erosion leads to a more Barron and dry landscape, respiratory disease may be caused by inhaled particles of dust which can be create from soil erosion, and desertification as mentioned earlier soil erosion leads to a more baron and dried out landscape as the soil can’t hold water as much as it used too.
