Describe how DNA replication relates to transmission and conservation of genetic information.

1 answer:

3 0

DNA replication follows the base pairing rule (A with T and G with C). This ensures identical replication of the genetic information; hence it's conservation. Each daughter DNA double helix contains one old strand of DNA and one newly-synthesized strand of DNA. This is known as the semi-conservative mechanism.
DNA replication also occurs during mitosis which produces haploid gametes. Each parent contributes half of the genetic information during fertilization of two gametes, thus regenerating the diploid number. Genes from both parents are transmitted to the offspring.

PLZ HELP ASAP!! Environmental factors can influence the gene expression in some organisms.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The greatest of environmental factors on phenotype is on phenotypic plasticity, phenotypes that may change due to changes in the environment; ex: snowshoe hare have brown-colored fur in summer/spring and white fur in winter. Environmental factors may affect gene expression which may result in normal/abnormal phenotypic changes.
