Answer:

Lizards and snakes are more genetically alike than lizards and birds.

Explanation:

A cladogram can be described as a diagram which shows the evolutionary histories among organisms. The organisms which are placed more closer together in a cladogram show that these organsims are more closer to one another and might have evolved from a common ancestor in the near past. These organisms show more similarities with each other as compared to other organisms in the cladogram.

As lizards and snakes are more closely related to one another, it shows that they are more genetically alike.

Transcription activators are different from transcription factors in that A. transcription factors prevent RNA polymerase bindin
Nesterboy [21]

Correct answer is option D.

Transcription activators accelerate transcription, while transcription factors assist RNA polymerase binding.

<h2><u></u></h2><h2><u>Explanation</u></h2>

Transcription factors are the proteins which help in proper binding of RNA polymerases in the promoter region of DNA so as to facilitate transcription.

Activators on the other hand, help in the enhancement of the transcription rate.  

Transcriptional activators are basically proteins which bind to the regulatory elements known as enhancers so as to increase the rate of transcription. Enhancers are specific DNA sequences, which may be present in the upstream or downstream region of the gene which is going to be transcribed.

It may be noted here that transcription factors are only present in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, sigma factors are present instead of  transcription factors to facilitate proper binding of RNA polymerases on the DNA.

I think meiosis is the process that creates gametes. It is creating sperm or egg, where does it actually start? what I am asking

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck :)

topjm [15]

Answer:

The options are

A. both homzygous dominant

B. both homzygous recessive

C. both heterozygous

D. one homzygous dominant, one homzygous recessive
