Answer: Option D) The negatively charged DNA is electrostatically attracted to positively charged regions on proteins

Explanation:

Proteins are composed of several amino acids with positively charged amino groups in their side chain, while DNA is composed of several nucleotides with negatively charged phosphate groups.

Thus, there is an electrostatic attraction of negatively charged DNA to positively charged regions on proteins at physiological pH.

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Dissimilar organisms might have evolved from a distant, common ancestor.

Explanation:

First of all we should know species. Species is considered as a basic unit of taxonomic classification of an organism.

Initially, the scientists are agreed on this phenomenon that all distinct species are evolved gradually from common ancestor. Today, the species which are different from each other just like hummingbirds, humans and whales are from the same ancestor but with the time passage genetic mutation occurs and at the end dissimilar organisms we can see in our environment/surroundings.

There is a 1 in 4 chance (25%) of having a child who is unaffected.

There is a 1 in 4 chance (25%) of having a child who is affected by the condition. These children have two copies of the gene that do not work correctly.

There is a 1 in 2 chance (50%) of having a child who is a carrier of the condition.  These children have one working copy of the gene and one copy of the gene that does not work correctly.

Why is it impossible for male calico cats to exist
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

genetics

Explanation:

calico cats must also inherit a gene unrelated to the X and Y chromosomes that codes for white fur. Because male cats have one X chromosome with code for black or orange and one Y chromosome with no color genes, they cannot technically be calico. About one in every 3,000 calico cats is born a male, and, unfortunately, don't live as long as female calicos due to their genetic abnormalities. XXY Syndrome renders male calicos sterile and can be the root cause of many other health problems
