Answer: are the source of new genetic variation

Explanation:

Mutations are the alterations that occur in the genome of an organism.

  • The mutations can be caused either due to intrinsic factors such as replication error or extrinsic factors such as exposure to mutagens.
  • Genetic variations are the differences in the genome sequence of individuals in a given population and it occurs mainly due to two processes :  

1. Mutation

2. Genetic recombiantion.

Answer:

The correct answer to this question should be a drup called antibiotics.

In our case, we need to look for something that helps us deal with bacteria infection, or in other words, treating diseases caused by bacteria. A drup that interfers with viral DNA is responsible for treating a kind of virus that basically  attack DNA to live. And I would consider the drug that moderates you use of sugar should be used to solve problem related to the amount of sugar in your body, maybe diabetes. Antibiotics is especially designed to kill bacteria, so it is the correct answer.

When comparing genomes from different species, scientists are often interested in the genome density, or the number of genes per
Setler79 [48]

The human genome density ranges between 12-15 genes per Megabase pairs. This is because humans have approximately 2000 genes in a total of approximately 3 billion base pairs. However, some primitive organisms have an even larger gene density than humans. An example is bacteria with gene densities ranging between 100 – 500 genes/Mb. Gene density is therefore not a good characteristic in determining the complexity of an organism.

What does it mean when scientists say that living organisms share a universal genetic code?
lesya [120]
When scientists say they share a universal genetic code it means that all organisms it can mean either DNA as the main source of hereditary information in all life forms we know of  or more likely that all organisms we know of use a three base pair code for the synthesis of proteins, DNA produces mRNA. This mRNA is read three base pairs at a time by a ribosome and this is called the genetic code.
