Answer:

The answer is E.

Explanation:

In vivo or in vitro evolution (Directed Evolution) is a technique used by genetic scientists to push the change in nucleic acids or proteins in a specific direction to get the end results that they want.

And high-fidelity polymerase is used to get a replica of the target DNA that has less errors.

So the situation given in the question where researchers use a higher-fidelity DNA polymerase in vitro evolution, the mutation rate would most likely be lower because of the high-fidelity DNA polymerase.

I hope this answer helps.

Atelectasis is caused by occupational exposure to coal dust.<br> a. true<br> b. false
Irina18 [472]
The statement is true. Atelectasis is the collapse or closure of a lung resulting in reduced or absent gas exchange. It may effect part or all of a lung. An airway blockage also can cause Atelectasis. A blockage may be due to a foreign object, a mucus plug, lung cancer, or a poorly placed breathing tube from a ventilator. When a blockage occurs, the air that's already in the air sacs is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Your patient is in cardiac arrest and has been intubated. to assess cpr quality which should you do
belka [17]

To assess the CPR quality, once the tube has been inserted by one of your members, one should continue chest compressions so that it will help the patient to breathe and a way of giving assistance to the heart. The waveform in the capnogrophy screen should be assessed and to find out whether the CPR is working.

How do scientists think protobionts formed?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

The very primitive and early microorganisms on the earth's surface were protobionts. Protobionts are cell-like microscopic structures, and they are made up of organic and inorganic molecules present in a lipid bilayer membrane. The layers of the lipid membranes were folded into bilayers and transformed into a bubble shape when placed in water. These membranes were selectively permeable and also observed shrinkage and swelling in osmotic conditions. Protobionts also possess the characteristics of reproduction.
