Answer:

The purine ring is built onto ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP for its de-novo nucleotide biosynthesis, while the ring structure of the pyrimidine bases are synthesized separately and then coupled to ribose-5-phosphate via the C-N glycosidic bond.

Explanation:

In the de novo synthesis of nucleotides, their metabolic precursors such as aminoacids, ribose-5-phosphate, CO₂ and NH₃ are used as starting materials.

In purine  nucleotide synthesis, the ring structure is built up on ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP by addition of one or a few atoms one at a time starting with the amino group donated by glutamine until the first intermediate inosinate is synthesized.

In pyrimidine ring synthesis, orotate is first synthesized from carbamoyl phosphate and aspartate, and then is attached to ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP, before it is then converted to the common pyrimidine nucleotides starting from uridylate.

The forelimbs of bats and humans have a very similar bone structure even though they appear very different on the outside
Vaselesa [24]

The forelimbs of all mammals are homologous traits, meaning that they originate from a common ancestral trait.

The correct answer is therefore C. Homologies (homologous traits), from the same common ancestor.

(To clarify, we know it is from a common ancestor because both bats and humans are mammals)

What are Hox genes?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Hox genes regulate sex determination in mammals.

-Hox genes regulate flower development.

-Hox genes encode transcription factors that respond to steroids.

-Hox genes encode transcription factors with a DNA-binding domain called a homeo box and regulate development of the vertebrate body plan

- Hox genes are transcription factors that bind to specific DNA sequels called homeodomains

and regulate development of the vertebrate body plan.

Hox genes are transcription factors that bind to specific DNA sequences called

homeodomains.

In chickens the dominant allele Cr produces the creeper phenotype (having short legs). However, the creeper allele is lethal in
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

66.6% of the living progeny would be creepers

Explanation:

The creeper allele is Cr for both parents this means that there is a 50% chance that they will pass the C or r trait to their progeny. In this scenario the deleterious inheritance of rr will be 25% so this will not be factored in this answer. The other progeny is CC 25% and Cr 50% for genotype only

The new calculation for living progeny is this: Of the chances of three living progeny there could be one normal CC and two creepers Cr. This means that 33.3% of the living progeny is normal CC and 66.6% of the living progeny are creepers Cr.
