Answer:

are reproductively isolated

Explanation:

The genetic drift represents a change in the frequency of an already existing gene variant in a population as a consequence of random sampling of organisms. The offspring would have the genes from their parents, and because the population is limited in numbers and it has been exposed to a new environment, the individuals with advantageous traits will survive and reproduce, while the others will die out gradually. This occurs when a small population of some species is reproductively isolated. The genetic variation is very small because of the small number of individuals, so only certain genes are passed on tot he offspring, thus resulting in gradual changes that will eventually lead to the creation of a separate species.

Answer:

The three processes from left to right are:

<u>Replication</u>   DNA  <u>Trancription</u>  RNA  <u>Translation</u> Protein

Explanation:

The process in question in the diagram is called the central dogma of life which describes the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to Protein. The three processes involved are:

  1. DNA Replication
  2. Transcription
  3. Translation

DNA Replication:

DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself. Replication of DNA is semi-conservative. this means that each new helix is a combination of an old (parent) strands and a new (daughter strand). The parental strand is used as a template to generate a complementary daughter strand.

Transcription:

Transcription is the formation of an RNA transcript of the DNA template. This process yields a mRNA that is further used as a code to manufacture proteins in the process of translation.

Translation:

Translation decodes the mRNA formed in transcription to generate proteins with specific amino acid sequence.

Using natural resources found in the environment, what did sumerians build strong walls with?
stiv31 [10]
<span>Sumerians built walls using the natural resource they were surrounded with, which was namely clay. They used this clay to create fired mud-bricks, as there was not any other building stone available at the time. However, the clay mud-bricks proved to be a solid structure for town fortification.</span>

How do you tell if a dog is pregnant?
nasty-shy [4]
During the first 2-3 weeks you will not see any physical signs. Look at your dog's nipples, for if it is pink, that may be an indication. Be sure to observe your dog's body and it's weight.
