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!

Answer:

All organisms require sulfur as a macro-nutrient. (Ans. E)

Explanation:

Sulfur is necessary for all living things. It is taken up in the form of sulfate from the soil and sea water by the plants, and algae.

Sulfur is known as the essential nutrient for plant growth. Sulfur playing various important role in plants. About 90% of the sulfur is absorbed by the plants for the purpose of amino acids synthesis, known as the building blocks of proteins. Sulfur is important for the enzyme which is helping in the formation of the chlorophyll molecule. Sulfur is essential for the synthesis of oil crops.

In human body sulfur playing some essential role such as amino acid production which is converting into proteins and producing enzymes. Sulfur is important for insulin production, insulin allow the cells to use glucose as energy. Sulfur is found in most important antioxidant known as glutathione, which helping in the inhibition of oxidation of the other molecules and preventing from cell damage. Collagen provide skin strength and structure, sulfur is important for collagen synthesis as well.

Random changes in allele frequency in a population are called:
kogti [31]
Random changes in allele frequency in a population are usually called genetic drift. The reason why this is the answer is because it is a very specific word which is used to describe exactly that - random changes in allele frequency. 

All the other cases; answers, here aren't correct and don't apply.
