Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.

Natalka [10]3 years ago

<u>Answer</u>:  Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Cystic fibrosis</em> is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that makes a protein called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator).
  • The CFTR protein normally functions as a channel for transport of chloride ions in cells responsible for mucus production.
  • A person suffering from cystic fibrosis produces abnormal CFTR protein or no CFTR protein at all.
  • This is the  reason that thick, sticky mucus is produced instead of the thin, watery kind.

The placement of prokaryotes into major clades within the domains Archaea and Bacteria has been based on __________.
Alja [10]

Answer:

Molecular evidence

Explanation:

Earlier archaea were considered as bacteria because they show some similarities with bacteria like binary fission as mode of reproduction, lack of a nucleus, etc.

Later Carl Woese separated bacteria in a different domain and divide prokaryote into two domains called bacteria and archaea. He separated archaea from bacteria on molecules evidence.

He compaired rRNA sequence between bacteria and archaea and observed that they both differ in rRNA sequence which allowed him to make a separate domain for archaea.
