Answer:
C. Joining of self-replication molecules into protocells.
Explanation:
For the origin of life, at least three conditions are needed.
- there must have been a supply of replicators, that is, self-replicating molecules.
- copying of these replicators must have been subject to error through mutation.
- the system of replicators must have required a continuous supply of free energy and partial isolation from the general environment.
The radiation received from the sun on the early earth must have fulfilled the requirement of mutation. The mutation is necessary for bringing variation in the genetic material thus driving evolution. To protect the self-replicating molecules from the external environment and to keep them together, the molecules must have been enclosed in a membrane barrier, which should be selectively semipermeable, to facilitate the exchange of molecules.
The answer is C because hydrogen bonding can only take place in polar molecules with hydrogen atoms
Answer:
Because humans are multicellular, eukaryotic (contains a nucleus), vertebrates, and mammals, the best organism to test the synthetic hormones on would be a mouse.
Explanation:
Humans and whales are multicellular (they have many cells) and their cells are eukaryotic (contain a nucleus). They also have a backbone (spinal column), which makes them a vertebrate. Finally, all humans and whales are mammals. Therefore, to get the best results, the testing should be performed on a mouse.
- Performing the experiment on yeast would give good results for singular-celled organisms, like <em>protozoa</em>.
- Performing the experiment on a fruit fly would give good results for multicellular invertebrates, like <em>spiders</em>.
- Performing the experiment on zebrafish would give good results for all fish in general.
