Transposable elements are considered to be responsible for vast range of genome diversity and gene silencing.
Explanation:
Transposable elements are short sequences of DNA that have the ability to move from one location to another in the genome. During this process they copy themselves.
The entire process carried out by transposable elements to copy themselves and move from one location to another is called transposition.
Transposition may result in mutation and is potentially a major source of genome diversity and change. If a transposon inserts itself into the coding region of a gene,it interrupts the coding sequence and inactivates the gene expression.
In addition to this, a transposable element may contain transcription or translation termination signal that will block the gene expression downstream of insertion site.
I don’t think so because when you are observing you refer to facts but when you infer you have to hypothesize what the outcome will be
Bones of snakes are very loosely fused together like in humans. Hence these bones can move individually allowing the snakes to be really flexible. The ribs of snakes do not join like those of humans but instead, have free ends and do not have a sternum.
Months with higher temperature have more rainfall.
Explanation:
From the presented graph, we can see that all three parameters are following a same trend. When the maximum temperatures increase, the minimum temperatures increase too, and the rainfall increases as well. When the maximum temperatures decrease, the minimum temperatures decrease, and the rainfall decreases too.
There is a simple explanation for the connection of higher temperature and more rainfall in Scotland. Scotland is located on an island, thus it is heavily influenced by the sea. When the temperature is higher, the humidity is higher, and in accordance to that more rainfall occurs. When the temperature is lower, the humidity is lower, so there is less rainfall, or instead of rainfall the precipitation can be manifested as snowfall.
