2) Cross-fertilization makes for more variation in the traits of plants, giving them immunities and resistances to weather, pests, and disease.
In diseases, similar patterns of mutations in harmless genes may possibly be a cause or an effect of the disease. To investigate if it is a cause, it is worth looking into the proteins synthesized by the gene and whether it’s structure or functionality is affected by the pattern observed. It is also worth looking into the downstream effects possibly caused by the pattern in the gene. The gene may encode a non coding region which could affect post transcriptional splicing for example.
Answer:
Symbiosis
Explanation:
Another category of interactions between organisms has to do with close, usually long-term interaction between different types of organisms. These interactions are called symbiosis
Phospholipids and proteins
