He light colored rock pocket mice in New Mexico blend in with the sandy soil of the area, but on darker lava flow, the light col
fiasKO [112]

<u>Answer</u>: option B they have a random gene mutation that affects their fur colour.

<u>Explanation</u> :-

  • <em>Variation</em> is the phenomena which occurs in all populations.
  • These variations result in slight differences in the phenotypes of individuals .
  • These variations only arise due to <em>random mutations </em>that arise in the individuals’ genome and then can be inherited by their offspring.
  • There is always a probability of one particular trait to make the individuals survive better in the environment as compared to other trait.
  • The individuals having the trait that helps them to survive better in the environment tend to survive more and leave more progeny. This is termed as <em>survival of the fittest</em>.
  • Thus, according to the question it can be inferred that the dark fur colour arose due to a <em>random mutation </em>since it is the only source of variation. Since, in the given environmental conditions the mice having the dark fur colour were less susceptible to the predators they are better fitted to survive.
  • The dark brown fur coat mice, survive better, leave more progeny and hence, increase their population with time. However, the orginal source of origin of this trait was a random mutation. Had this mutation not occured, the dark coloured fur mice would not have been there.

So, a <em>random gene mutation affecting the fur colour made the dark coloured mice first appear in the population.</em>

What happens when the s phase cannot enter the g0 phase?
Shtirlitz [24]
<span>The importance of the G0 phase is that during cell division when the cell get a signal that there are enough of cells (not more required) or there is a mutation in the cell that need to be fixed before they differentiate fully or the cell during its division gets damage then it is signalled to rest, and it is this phase that cell leave the cycle and quit dividing. It could be temporary resting period (so when cell again required, or damaged got fixed) then the cells will again join the cycle and continue to divide again or it can also be permanent for example neurons, which are resting in G0 phase and never divides again.</span>

Why is a testcross necessary to determine genotype when an organism shows a dominant trait
soldier1979 [14.2K]
A dominant trait can be shown both when an organism is homozygous dominant AND heterozygous. Two different genotypes give the same visible result so a testcross is needed to be able to accurately say if the organism is homozygous dominant or heterozygous

Copying of the information in dna into rna, which can exit the nucleus is called
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Definition:
                 "Copying of information from DNA to RNA which exit nucleus is                                                         known as transcription"

Explanation:

                    Transcription is a vital process for living organisms, because it is a staring point for protein synthesis. It occurs inside the nucleus and is carried out by RNA polymerase enzyme. In eukaryotes RNA pol is of three types: these are RNA Pol 1, RNA Pol 2, and RNA Pol 3. In prokaryotes it is of only one type.

Steps in transcription:
                                     Transcription consists of three main steps
1. Initiation:
                   In this step RNA pol attach to DNA template at 5 prime end in the promoter region to start the formation of complementary strand of RNA.  In prokaryotes there is a region called <span>Pribnow box, with the </span>consensus sequence<span> TATAAT present about 10 base pair away from site that serves as a transcription initiation. In eukaryotes the promoter region is more complex it contain activator and enhancer.

2. Strand elongation:
                                   </span><span>Once transcription is initiated, the DNA double helix unwinds and RNA polymerase reads the template strand, adding nucleotides to the 3′ end of the growing chain.
</span>
3. Transcription Termination:
                                                T
erminator sequences are found close to the ends of non-coding sequences. Before termination polyadenylation occurs.  <span>
