Answer:

D) the arrangement of the nucleotides within genes

Explanation:

De-oxy ribo nucleic acid that is basically a polymer of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of three basic units: a de-oxyribose sugar unit, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases that can be Adenine, Gunanine, Thymine and Cytosine.Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.

This is a universal composition of DNA in each and every living organism. The genes are a segment of DNA that contain specific sequence of nucleotides and encode for a specific trait of organism such as height, weight, eye color etc. The sequence of nucleotides expresses the trait in the form of protein product during the process of Translation. The products of translation are amino acids and every amino acids encode for a specific protein  in almost  all living organisms.

So, what differs in the specie is the sequence of nucleotides in genes. Infact this is the nucleotide sequence which brings evolution in organism and organisms evolve to form new specie with the passage of time. One major cause of change in nucleotide sequence is mutations due to which the organisms change with time.

Suppose the sequence of nucleotide of specific gene in organism A is

AAGGGGAAATTT

However in other specie organism B of same specie is:

TAGGGGAAATTT

This means only mutation of one base changed the gene in organism B and also its product called protein.

Hope it help!

Which cell structure plays a direct role in the release of chemicals from the cell?
jonny [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is - the cell membrane.

Explanation:

When a human cell gets an external stimulus it triggers the production of the specific compound or chemical release which is packed in vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus to the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the cell organelle that allows or prohibits the entry or exit of any substance.

Chemical release or secretion also depends on the cell membrane and it allows the secretion of chemicals and plays an important role in the secretion of chemical, hormones, or any substance.
