How does the environment select organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
dybincka [34]3 years ago
3 0
The process in which the environment selects organisms that will survive is called natural selection. It starts with overproduction; when an organism produces more offpsrings than can survive. The second is variation. Because there are so many offsprings, there will be variations. The third step is selection. When the actual "selection" occurs. If the variation is helpful to survive, then it gets passed down. This is the fourth step: adaptation when it is passed down to offsprings for generations.

When two genes from two different people are sequenced and aligned, it is discovered that there are multiple sequence difference
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The mutations lie at locations where they don't affect protein sequence due to degeneracy of the genetic code.

Explanation:

Genetic code is the set of the triplet codons each of which code for a specific amino acid. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA is read in the form of triplets during the process of protein synthesis and the respective amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain. The genetic code is degenerate. This means that more than one triplet code specifies one amino acid and some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon.

For instance, genetic codes CUU, CUC, CUA, CUG specify amino acid "leucine". Therefore, any change in the DNA sequence that replaces one code for the leucine with another would not affect the amino acid composition of the protein. This would result in the synthesis of proteins with the same amino acid sequence from both the wild type and mutated genes.
