How does science use fossil evidence tofo support the theory of evolution

Biology
1 answer:
Illusion [34]3 years ago
6 0

When you hear talk of evidence for evolution, the first thing that frequently comes to mind for most people is fossils. The fossil record has one important, unique characteristic: it is our only actual glimpse into the past where common descent is proposed to have taken place. As such it provides invaluable evidence for common descent. The fossil record is not "complete" ( fossilization is a rare event, so this is to be expected), but there is still a wealth of fossil information.

Answer: Question 1 answer: Skin cells continually replicate

Explanation: The cells in the superficial or upper layers of skin, known as the epidermis, are constantly replacing themselves. This process of renewal is basically exfoliation (shedding) of the epidermis. But the deeper layers of skin, called the dermis, do not go through this cellular turnover and so do not replace themselves.

Question 2 answer: Heart cells undergo terminal differentiation

Explanation: Different cell types (e.g., neurons, skeletal and heart myocytes, adipocytes, keratinocytes) undergo terminal differentiation, in which acquisition of specialized functions entails definitive withdrawal from the cell cycle.

Question 3 answer: DNA replicates in the nucleus

Explanation: DNA replication occurs in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and in the nucleus of eukaryotes. Regardless of where DNA replication occurs, the basic process is the same. The structure of DNA lends itself easily to DNA replication.

Question 4 answer: The ability to reverse terminal differentiation might affect gene expression in a complex organism

Question 5 answer Cytoplasm replicates during mitosis

Explanation: This process involves replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the parent cell's cytoplasm. ... The outcome of binary fission is two new cells that are identical to the original cell.

Which statement describes the formation of a protein molecule?
Dovator [93]
First, we can eliminate 2 options. The simple unit of protein is amino acid, instead, the simple unit of fat and lipids are fatty acids and glycerol, therfore we can eliminate option A and D because fatty acids does not exist in protein.
Now we are left with B and C. To solve that, we need to understand that protein is made of a chain of amino acids, a lot of amino acids are chemically combined and cannot be broken down unless the use of enzymes. Amino acid are actually the monomers that forms protein.
Therefore, the answer is C. amino acid combine to form a protein chain.

1.<br> Describe two advantages of genetic engineering.
Novay_Z [31]
One advantage of genetic engineering is the production of valuable proteins: recombinant DNA made possible the use of bacteria to produce proteins of medical importance such as genetically engineered human insulin which is of great importance.
Another advantage is the production of vaccines. Vaccines produced by genetic engineering offer an advantage that the microbial strains from which proteins are extracted do not contain complete viruses and thus there is no risk of accidental inoculation with live virus.
