Answer:

If the original finches that had been blown over to the Galápagos from South America had already been genetically different from the parental population of South American finches, even before adapting to the Galápagos, this would have been an example of

E) both the first and third of these.

Explanation:

Genetic drift was the process of changing of allele frequencies over generations in a random fashion.

Founder effect is closely linked with the genetic drift. In this case, a few individuals of the original population start a new colony isolated from the other members of the species.

A founder effect happens when a new colony started from few members of the original population. The small size of population means that the colony may have a small variation of the genes in the original population.

A founder effect event happens when a small group of individuals was separated from the rest of the population, whereas a bottleneck effect occurs when most of the population is destroyed.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: B (GTP serves as the energy input for AMP synthesis from IMP)

Explanation:

In the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotide, IMP represents a branch point for purine biosynthesis. IMP can be converted to either AMP or GMP.

The formation of AMP from IMP requires GTP; similarly formation of GMP requires ATP. The conversion of IMP to either AMP or GMP is highly regulated – AMP and GMP inhibits their own formation by feedback inhibition of adenlyosuccinate synthetase and IMP dehydrogenase.

10. What is the structure of chromatin and how does it affect gene regulation?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Chromatin is a substance within a chromosome consisting of DNA and protein. The DNA carries the cell's genetic instructions. The major proteins in chromatin are histones, which help package the DNA in a compact form that fits in the cell nucleus. Chromatin structure plays a key role in regulating gene expression by allowing DNA accessibility to transcriptional machinery and transcription factors.
