During a presentation about evolution a student claims that modern giraffes inherited their long necks from ancestral giraffes t

hat stretched their necks to reach for leaves on tall trees.
Choose the sentence that best describes the claim.

A.) Stretching the neck causes gene mutations that can result in an even longer neck. These genes are then passed on to the giraffe's offspring.
B.) Stretching the neck enabled giraffes to reach higher, which gives them an advantage to survive, reproduce, and pass on this trait.
C.) Ancestral giraffes had longer necks than modern giraffes, so the claim is not supported by research.

What is a point mutation?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

A) A single base pair change.

Explanation:

Point mutation is a change in a single base pair of a nucleotide. This comes as a results of mistakes made during DNA replication, induced by ultravoilet radiations, extreme heat and X-rays. There are three types of point or substitution mutations; change, deletion and insertion. The nucleotide bases are either mistakenly inserted, changed or deleted, thus changing the resulting protein or amino acid being coded for.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The Cell to Mentee

A cell is the basic unit of life of a human. The body cell contains cytoplasm in which organelles are present . There is a nucleus found in eukaryotic cell. It contains the genetic material in the form of DNA with proteins and chromosomes. Inside there is nuclear membrane. Outside the nucleus, there are many other organelles like mitochondria, ribosomes, golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, and many more.

Which statement regarding the energetics of the citric acid cycle is true?(A) All of the energy‑producing capacity of the cycle
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C production of FAD to FADH2 by the citric acid cycle represent the energetic capacity to synthesize about 1.5 ATP.

Explanation:

Citric acid cycle is one of most important stage of cellular respiration.Citric acid cycle or TCA  cycle composed of various enzyme catalyzed biochemical reaction.

 various reduced coenzymes are produced during TCA cycle such as NADH,FADH2.FADH2 is formed from FAD during the conversion of succinate to fumarate.

  The FADH2 then enter electron transport chain to oxidize itself into FAD along with the generation of 1.5 ATP.
