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.

Restriction enzyme HinfI cleaves a five nucleotide DNA sequence GA(A/T)TC. The ambiguity in the central position - (A/T) - means
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

C) 2.0 kb

Explanation:

It is given that out of the 4 nucleotides A, T, C & G each one has equal probability to occur at any position on the DNA molecule which simply means that the probability of occurrence of any nucleotide at a position is 1/4.

Also, it is given that probability of occurrence of either A or T at 3rd position is equal which means that the probability at that particular position will be 2/4 = 1/2.

Now, GA(A/T)TC is the DNA sequence where Restriction enzyme HinfI cleaves so the total probability of an average HinfI cleavage fragment will be = 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 0.00195 = 0.2 i.e. 2 kb.

What plate boundaries causes sea floor spreading?
Blababa [14]

Answer: Seafloor spreading occurs at <u>divergent plate boundaries.</u> As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.
