A hypothetical population of monkeys consists of two or more phenotypically different groups who extensively interbreed with one

another. The monkeys share the same geographic space. Over time, they begin to interbreed more frequently with those individuals that are more genetically similar to themselves. Eventually, two unique species evolve in the same, shared environment.a) sympatric speciationb) parapatric speciationc) allopatric speciation

Answer:

The correct answer is option a, that is, sympatric speciation.

Explanation:

Speciation, which takes place when two groups of similar species live in a similar geographical location, however, they evolve distinctly unless and until they no longer interbreed and are regarded as different species is termed as sympatric speciation.  

Sympatric speciation is not similar to other kinds of speciation, in which the formation of a new species takes place when a population gets differentiated into two groups because of migration or geographic barrier. The sympatric speciation can be witnessed in various distinct kinds of species. Thus, the given case of monkeys is an illustration of sympatric speciation.

A researcher while working in vitro (outside cell) added helicase enzyme which resulted in the untwisting of the DNA helix. But
Nadusha1986 [10]
The answer is <span>Topoisomerase.

Topoisomerase is an enzyme responsible for twisting of DNA helix. After DNA strand is untwisted by helicase enzyme, DNA must be twisted again so the normal function of DNA can be sustained. If left untwisted, the replication fork will continue to grow, the normal function of DNA will stop.</span>

Would a muscle cell be able to produce a functional contraction if it lacked t-tubules?
hjlf

The answer would be no. T-Tubules or Transverse tubules are additions of the sarcolemma that infiltrate into the center of cardiac and skeletal muscle cells. There would be no functional contraction since it would not be capable to communicate or interconnect with the other cells.
