After doing PCR on the same region between two individuals, you notice that each person's DNA yielded pieces of different sizes.
vitfil [10]

Answer:

C. This is an example of VNTRs.

Explanation:

VNTRs are Variable Number Tandem Repeats. These are short sequences of DNA repeated in tandem (that is, the sequences are repeated one next to the other) a certain number of times. Unrelated individuals have a different number of repetitions for a certain region of the DNA, therefore the total length of the fragment is variable among individuals, depending on how many times the short sequence is repeated.

Explain what it means for a section of DNA to be considered a molecular clock. Be sure to discuss the importance of neutral muta
IceJOKER [234]
  <span>Neutral mutations are neither harmful nor beneficial. 

Therefore, they are invisible to natural selection. (Since they neither improve nor worsen one individual's chances of survival and reproduction over another.) 

However neutral mutations can still spread into the population by just random replications and matings. This is called genetic drift. 

In other words, they are 'silent'. They are mutations that exist and propagate in populations, but seem to have no effect at all. 

The reason they can become important to evolution is that a day can come when they *do* have an effect. In other words, even though an individual mutation may have no immediate effect on survival or reproduction, a *combination* of neutral mutations may provide some new benefit or harm ... at which point natural selection *will* act on that combination.

The ratio of estrogen to progesterone remains constant throughout pregnancy into labor. false/true
Lady_Fox [76]

False,

In order to start labor, estrogen increases and progesterone decreases.

Estrogens are a class of hormones that are essential for women's healthy sexual and reproductive development. They are sex hormones as well. The majority of estrogen hormones are produced by a woman's ovaries, however minor quantities are also produced in modest amounts by the adrenal glands and fat cells.

Progesterone is a member of the progestin drug class (female hormones). By lowering the level of estrogen in the uterus, it functions as a component of hormone replacement treatment. By substituting for the natural progesterone that some women lack, it helps to initiate menstruation.
