Imagine a genomic researcher who is analyzing the genome of different types of cats. She finds that a particular sequence in the

North American Bobcat genome is exactly homologous to a sequence found in the common house cat, while all other sequences in those two genomes differ at many nucleotides. (The most recent common ancestor between bobcats and house cats is estimated to be about 6.8 million years, plenty of time for mutation to generate DNA sequence variation.)
Which of the following could explain the identical sequence in these otherwise differing genomes?

01. The sequence encodes a ribosomal protein that is critical for life and can not be easily mutated while retaining function.

02. The sequence is contained in a virus that has infected germline cells in both species.

03. The sequence is from an intron of a gene that encodes a muscle protein.

Provide a rationale for why each of the three statements above are correct or incorrect.

Science rejects any hypothesis not supported by __________________________ and the results of ___________________________ experi
Ket [755]

Answer:

Observations; control.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is considered to be tentative or an educated guess and can be defined as a testable explanation for an  observation or a scientific problem. An example of a hypothesis is saying, Corona virus is caused by the introduction of the "5G" technology.

On the other hand, a control experiment  can be defined as an experiment in which a condition assumed to be a probable cause of the effect is being compared to the same  situation by the scientist without involving or using the suspected condition.

Hence, science rejects any hypothesis not supported by observations and the results of control experiments.

<em>This ultimately implies that, for any hypothesis to be acceptable in science, it must be supported by observations and the results of control experiments; this give rise to factual informations, theories and by extension solutions to problems.</em>

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a. It's a carrier protein doing facillitated diffusion

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion may be defined as the transportation of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration that is down the concentration gradient without input of the energy. Whereas the active transport is transportation of the molecules from the low concentration to the high concentration which is against concentration gradient by the membrane protein.

The glucose transportation process requires membrane protein for the transport and does not require any energy. Therefore, it is carrier protein which is doing the facilitated diffusion.
