A species of lizards migrates to a group of islands in the ocean. Over time, they diversified and evolved into several different

species. Each species has a unique jaw shape that allows it to eat its own specific diet. This is an example of:
A) gradualism because one species evolved into several different species over a relatively short amount of time.

B) adaptive radiation because one species evolved into several different forms that occupy different niches.

C) coevolution because the evolving lizard species changed in order to interact with the changing environment.

D) convergent evolution because one species evolved into multiple species that live alongside each other.

a person usually experiences changes in body temperature over a 24 hour period. is it caused by immune responses?
schepotkina [342]
At times, a person may have experienced a sudden or unexpected change in body temperature within a 24-hour period. This change in the body temperature is caused by immune responses. If there is a detected infection in the body, the immune system fights back thus causing the change of body temperature.

What happens to RNA polymerase II after it has completed transcription of a gene? a. It begins transcribing the next gene on the
Over [174]

The correct answer is: b. It is free to bind to another promoter and begin transcription

Transcription is the first step of gene expression in which DNA molecule is copied (transcribed) into RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase. The process of transcription is divided into three phases:

1. Initiation

• RNA polymerase with transcriptional factors bind to gene promoter  

• RNA polymerase unwinds DNA double helix (transcription bubble is formed)

2. Elongation

• RNA polymerases adds nucleotides complementary to DNA  

3. Termination

• RNA polymerase gets to stop codon (transcribes a sequence of DNA known as a terminator)

• Formed complementary RNA strand is released from DNA-RNA complex.

RNA polymerase is also released and can transcribe some other gene by binding to its promotor. RNA polymerase will transcribe just the genes whose products are needed at a particular moment.

Verdich [7]

Answer: Codon

Explanation:

Codon refers to nucleotide triplets of mRNA that serve to specify the amino acid sequence of proteins. There are total 64 genetic code that specify 20 standard amino acids found in proteins. All codon together make genetic code. For example: AUG is codon that specify amino acid "methionine". AUG codon also serve as initiation codon during initiation of protein synthesis.
