While flipping through the channels, you stop on a television program about primate evolution. the host says that there is a six

-million-year gap in the fossil evidence between the latest oligocene catarrhines and the earliest miocene proconsulids, which could mean that primates disappeared from earth and evolved anew some time later. what do you tell your roommate about what you have just heard?

I would tell the room mate  that what i just heard was the resemblance between the Fayum catarrhines and the Miocene proconsulids in skull form and dentition which suggests an evolutionary relationship, even if the direct fossils evidence is not present. Primates are divided into two groups; the prosimians and anthropoids. Monkeys evolved from Prosimians during the Oligocene Epoch while Apes evolved from the Catarrhines in Africa during the Miocene Epoch. Apes are then divided into the lesser apes and the greater apes.

What is your opinion on cloning animals? Extended answer plz
butalik [34]

Answer:

i believe that cloning animals wouldn't be such a bad idea because think about how much cheaper the price of meat would get, and also think about the emotional aspects of it you could potentially clone your favorite dog or pet. the prices of meat would dramatically decrease because there is meat that are only found in a certain type of cow and it could also help world hunger.

Craig Venter’s group chose to create a synthetic life-form using a bacterium as their test subject. They inserted synthetic DNA

Answer:

The team would have to replace the nucleus.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells, such as the Mycoplasma capricolum cell used in the experiment do not contain either membrane bound organelles or a defined nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA floats around freely in the cytoplasm in a region called the nucleoid.

The genetic material of eukaryotic cells is protected by a membrane bound nucleus. Therefore, in order to replace an animal cell's DNA, the whole nucleus has to be removed.

Example:

In the process of cloning, the oocyte (egg cell) that receives the nucleus (from somatic cell) of the desired species or individual has to be enucleated i.e. its own nucleus has to be removed. This process is called somatic cell nuclear transfer.
