Biology
1 answer:
Rashid [163]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

An adaptation can be viewed as a trait that emerged and developed for a certain condition so as to increases the organism changes of survival or fitness.

For a trait to be called adaptive, it must have had a positive influence but not majorly a trait that develops in reaction to a certain selection pressure.

Categorically, a trait is seen as adaptation if it is the aftermath of selection, and adaptive if it is of favourable influence at the existing time.

Margarita [4]
Potassium holds an important function in both cell and energy-related functions. Potassium is considered to be one of the important blood minerals. Potassium regulates the balance of both water and acid in our blood and body tissues. Food which are high in potassium include white beans, spinach, plain yogurt, broccoli, sweet potato milk, bacon, oranges and many more. One should avoid the excessive intake of salt because too much intake of salt in the body may cause complications or illnesses in our body.

In what two ways are active transport proteins similar to enzymes
Ksju [112]
  1. They change conformation/shape when the right molecule bind in their active site.
  2. They enable reactions to proceed ‘downhill’. For enzyme, when the reactants are more than the products, the reaction proceeds to the right of the reaction. Career proteins also carry molecules down their concentration gradient.
  3. Both career proteins and enzymes are not denatured  during the process of their biological activity

in the dna in chromatin, substitution mutations: a. are at a maximum in the nucleosomes b. are rarely seen, but deletion mutatio
Gelneren [198K]

In chromatin, substitution mutations are most common in linker regions. Option d is the correct answer.

Mutation by substitution When one nucleotide base is replaced by another, this occurs. Mismatch mutation A type of substitution mutation in which a single nucleotide is replaced, resulting in the coding of an incorrect amino acid, which usually results in a malfunctioning protein. Silent mutations are the result of genetic code redundancy (degeneracy): This is false, as silent mutations are the result of a base substitution that has no discernible effect on a protein's amino acid sequence.
