Answer:

The mutation will be fixed by genetic drift.

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the change in the allele frequencies in a population that occur randomly. It is an evolutionary process (like natural selection), that is associated with the reduction in genetic diversity by the fixation of rare allelic variants and neutral mutations. In this example, this point mutation is neutral since, according to data, the population is evolving by genetic drift. Moreover, it is also important to note that a mutation that involves one nucleotide is also called Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP).

Evidence that cytoskeletal elements have ancient origins comes from the: sequence similarities of cytoskeletal elements when com
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

All of these choices are correct.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the fundamental or basic functional, structural and smallest unit of life for all living organisms. Some living organisms are unicellular while others are multicellular in nature.

A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.

Generally, cells have the ability to independently replicate themselves. In a cell, the "workers" that perform various functions or tasks for the survival of the living organism are referred to as organelles. Some examples of cell organelles in all living organisms such as trees, birds, and bacteria include; nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes, ribosomes, chromosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, vesicles, cytoskeleton, etc.

Cytoskeleton refers to a structure consisting of filaments and tubules which help to maintain internal organization and support the shape of the cells. It comprises of three (3) main filaments and these includes: actin filaments, intermediate filaments and microtubules.

Generally, there are numerous evidence that cytoskeletal elements have ancient origins and they include all of the aforementioned facts.

Phil observes that when he turns on a flashlight, chemical energy from the batteries is transformed into light energy. Phil trie
grin007 [14]

Answer:

A. a lamp being turned on

B. a toaster being used to toast bread

D. a car horn honking

Explanation:

Energy transformation is the conversion of one form of energy to another form in accordance with the law of conservation of energy. According to this question, Phil is observing a flashlight, which turns chemical energy (batteries) into light energy.

From the examples given in this question, the following are examples of scenarios that involve energy transformation:

- A lamp being turned on: This converts chemical energy to light energy.

- A toaster being used to toast bread: This converts electrical energy to heat energy.

- A car horn honking: This converts electrical energy to sound energy.

Note that, melting of a chocolate does not transform any form of energy.

Why would a mutation that involves a centromere have a greater impact than a mutation that occurs elsewhere on a chromosome?
RideAnS [48]
If mutation is associated with the centromere region, the direct impact would be on the segregating mechanism during cell division process.
