Answer:

The correct answer is e. <em>Postzygotic barrier.</em>

Explanation:

Different species can not mate and produce viable, healthy and fertile descendence, due to certain mechanisms of <u>reproductive isolation</u>.

These mechanisms involve different kinds of barriers that make it difficult for two different species to produce viable and fertile progeny.

One of these is the <u>postzygotic barrier</u>, which avoids the hybrid zygote to develope to adultness. In these situations, there is a mix of chromosomes that can not happen to meet or that they lack information.

There are cases in which the embryo dies, but some times the individual can reach some more advanced develope stages.  If this is the case, in general, they can not survive because the organism is unhealthy. And if they reach adultness in good sate they can not leave descendence, as they are sterile.

The current thought on the structure of the cell membrane is: a. a static phosphate sandwich of lipids b. a fluid-mosaic of phos
baherus [9]

Answer:

b. a fluid-mosaic of phospholipids and proteins

Explanation:

According to the currently accepted structure, the cell membrane is made up of two layers of amphipathic phospholipids in which proteins are embedded or present. The hydrophobic tails of phospholipids make the core of the membrane. These tails are not covalently attached to each other and are free to move laterally. Likewise, the protein molecules float in the fluid bilayer. This mosaic pattern is not static since the positions of the proteins in the bilayer are constantly changing. The fluid mosaic model to explain the structure of the cell membrane was given by S.J. Singer and Garth L. Nicolson in 1972.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Option B.

Transcription will be silenced.

Explanation:

Gal4 is a transcription factor that regulate gene expression in a positive way. It is a year protein that regulates gene induced by galactose. It lies upstream of the activating sequence and activate them. It binds to 17 basepair sites of the upstream activating sequence(UAS). If USAg prevents Gal4 from binding, transcription will be silenced.
