Answer:

The correct answer is D: "<em>Apes have a Y-5 pattern of cusps, whereas Old World monkeys have a bilophodont pattern</em>".

Explanation:

Apes and old world monkeys only have four kinds of teeth: <em>two incisors, one canine, two premolars, and three molars</em>. This dental formula is 2.1.2.3.

The old world monkeys characterize for having molars with four cusps joined by ridges. They have bilophodont teeth with better crushing, shearing and wearing capabilities than apes.  

Apes´molars have 5 cusps, a Y-shaped space between those raised points, and no transverse lophs. These characteristics are known as the Y-5 pattern.

Answer:

A) Bacteria cannot carry out RNA splicing to remove introns and so produced a much larger protein.

Explanation:

Human is a eukaryote and has both introns and exons in its genes. Transcription of human genes forms a primary transcript that undergoes post-transcriptional modification.

One of the important even during the post-transcriptional modification is the removal of introns and joining the exons together to make a mature mRNA which in turn serves as the template for protein synthesis.

<em>E. coli</em> is a prokaryote and does not have the enzymatic machinery required for the splicing of introns.

Cloning of a complete human gene into the <em>E. coli</em> cells would not form the respective human protein since the bacterial cells would not be able to splice the introns from the primary transcript.

What reasons besides being necessary for the methane cycle, can you think of that might
Stella [2.4K]

Titan's rivers, lakes, and seas of liquid methane and ethane could provide a habitable environment on the moon's surface, though any life there would most likely be very different from life on Earth.

Methane gas is effective at trapping heat and burns quickly. As a result, methane is one of the most important human fuels. Furthermore, methane in the atmosphere helps to regulate the Earth's climate.

Over the first 20 years after it enters the atmosphere, methane has more than 80 times the warming power of carbon dioxide. Even though CO2 has a longer lasting effect, methane drives warming in the short term. Methane from human activity is responsible for at least 25% of today's global warming.

As a result, methane not only contributes to global warming directly, but also indirectly through the release of carbon dioxide.
