Fossils show how the complexity of living organisms has changed over time. Gerobatrachus hottoni was a unique organism that live

d during the Permian period between ancient salamanders and ancient frogs. Scientists have nicknamed this organism the “frogamander” because it is believed to be a common ancestor of both modern frogs and salamanders. Which type of fossil is Gerobatrachus hottoni most likely to be? intermediary phylogenic transitional index Mark this and return

The correct answer is transitional.  

Gerobatrachus refers to an extinct genus of amphibamid temnospondyl, which thrived in the initial Permian, that is, about 290 mya, in the region, which is now known as Baylor County, Texas. The transitional form of fossils are those that demonstrate the intermediate form between the two distinct living species, it could be in a form of an ancestor and its descendants. It is considered that the frogs and salamanders have evolved from a common ancestor of primitive amphibian tetrapod subclass known as Temnospondyli.

Does Kudzu help with soil erosion in the environment Explain why or why not
horrorfan [7]

Solution:

The correct answer is:

Yes, Kudzu helps prevent erosion.

Explanation:

Kudzu is a leafy vine that can prevent soil erosion. This is due to its wide leaves and strong root system that prevents soil erosion. In fact, Kudzu exhibits a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which may help explain their successful growth on heavily eroded sites. The kudzu cover prevents soil erosion because produces a high density of organic matter and this slows down the speed of rainwater. Also, Kudzu maintains soil moisture and prevents runoff even on steep slopes.

Manny is using a computer model to investigate the effects of substitution mutations. The model presents Manny with a long base
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The most likely explanation for the truncated polypeptide -due to the substitution of cytosine for adenine- is that mutation introduced a stop codon in the middle of the gene.

Explanation:

A codon consists of three nucleotides -in the RNA chain- whose order determines a specific amino acid. Not all codons code for amino acids, as there are termination codons, also called stop codons, which are UAG, UGA and UAA.

If in Manny's computer model, the substitution of cytosine by adenine produced a termination codon, the synthesis of a peptide is stopped prematurely resulting in a truncated peptide.
