Inversion of DNA sequences within chromosomes is a common process in evolution. The following gene arrangements in a particular

chromosome are found in four different species.
1st sequence STUVWX
2nd sequence UVXTSW
3rd sequence UVWSTX
4th sequence SWVUTX
1. Assuming that the arrangement in 1 is the original arrangement, in what evolutionary order did the four species arise, such that there is only one inversion between each species. (Place 1st sequence first in your ordering.)

Answer:

2, 3, 4, 1

Explanation:

Inversion of DNA sequences refers to the rearrangement of the sequences where a segment is reversed end to end.

For instance in order for the gene of species to have the sequence STUVWX

The order of evolution will be

  • sequence UVXTSW  will be the first sequence

When XTSW segment is inverted WSTX

  • sequence UVWSTX  will be the result of the inversion.

section UVWS is inverted to  SWVU

  • sequence SWVUTX is formed.

when WVUT undergoes inversion to TUVW

  • It becomes the original arrangement of STUVWX .

In terms of adaptation, what advantage does sexual reproduction provide for species
KengaRu [80]
Unlike other ways of reproduction, sexual reproduction provides variation through inheriting various genes. This variation is essential for adaptation as it would not just create a copy of the original life form, but rather a different unique life form that could adapt to something, and then have it's own offspring with the adapted trait.

Ed was in a bicycle accident, he had no sensations in his injured leg. He can move the limb normally. Based on the functional cl
____ [38]
There are two types of neurons in our legs: motor neuron and sensory neuron. These send and receive messages to and from each other and the brain.  

After Ed's accident, he can't move his injured leg since the motor neuron is dysfunctional. The sensory neuron is functional so he can feel his limbs but can't move them since when the sensory neuron sends a message to the motor neuron, it isn't able to deliver the message to the brain to make the leg move. This is why he can still feel his limbs but is not able to move them.
