Most viruses have either RNA or DNA as their genetic material. The nucleic acid may be single- or double-stranded. The entire infectious virus particle, called a virion, consists of the nucleic acid and an outer shell of protein.

Use the double-stranded DNA molecule below to answer the following questions. The first pair of nucleotides (bolded) contains th
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'

Explanation:

The template strand for transcription is 3'-TACAGTCCATGCGGTGTA-5 and RNA polymerase will add complementary mRNA sequence against this strand in the opposite direction i.e., 5' to 3' direction.

In RNA, A(adenine) makes complementary base pairing with U(uracil), not with T(thymine) and the rest of the base-pairing is same as in DNA. Therefore the correct mRNA produced from the transcription of this DNA molecule by the help of RNA polymerase is 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'.

Then this mRNA sequence will be used by ribosomes to synthesize proteins during the translation process.

Think about the two words that make up the term reproductive isolation. How do you think reproductive isolation affects the evol
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Reproductive isolation refers to the inability of an organism or species to breed successfully with other organism or species.

It may arise from various factors such as:

  • Geographical isolation such as river, mountain, etc
  • Behavioral changes such as mating time or season, mating rituals, mating location etc.
  • Physiological differences such as change in shape of sex organs which causes lack of fit between copulatory organs.
  • Genetic differences.

Reproductive and geographical isolations between two populations (of same species) inhibit the flow of genes among them. Slowly, these isolations increase the variations in the gene pools of the two populations.

These genetic variations keep on increasing with time. In addition, as an adaptation to their surrounding or habitat the two populations would develop different behavioral and physiological changes

With time, these differences will increase up to such an extent that the two populations would not be able breed with each other. Hence, it would lead to the evolution of one or both the populations into new species.
