Answer:
Biological evidence of the age of the earth includes radioactive dating of rocks, fossil evidence, comparative anatomy and molecular clocks
Answer:
The correct answers would be maintain chromosome number through generations and cause genetic variations by recombination.
In Meiosis a cell divides into four daughter cells all of which have half the number of chromosomes present in a parent cell.
It helps in the formation of gametes in sexually reproducing organisms.
These gametes (one from father and one from mother) fuse together to form a zygote. It re-established the chromosomal number as that of the parent.
In absence of meiosis, the chromosomal number would have doubled after each generation.
In addition, the meiosis also increases the genetic variation among the population with the help of crossing over which occurs during the pachytene stage of prophase I.
During this event, genetic information is exchanged between the non-sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes. It produces a new combinations of genes that are different from either parent.
Both photosynthesis and respiration involve the conversion of energy from one form to another through a series of biochemical reactions. Both processes use and produce ATP in reactions that are carried out on membranes and are controlled by enzymes.
Seymour Benzer used phage T4 mutants, Experimental
evidence that a gene is a linear sequence of nucleotide pairs. Some regions of
chromosomes have "hot spots" for mutations. Benzer's experimental
approach to fine structure mapping of the rII locus. Generated 1612 spontaneous point mutations
and several deletions in rII locus identified two complementation groups, rIIA
and rIIB. Mapped locations of deletions
relative to each other using recombination.
Mapped locations of point mutations relative to the deletions. Tested
for recombination between all point mutations within the same complementation
group.
