Answer:

B) transcription and translation.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material and stores genetic information. The genetic information stored in DNA is expressed in the form of genetic traits by two processes: transcription and translation. The template strand of DNA is copied into RNA strand by the enzyme RNA polymerase. The process is called transcription and occurs in the nucleus.

The RNA formed by the process of transcription serves to carry the genetic information to the cytoplasm. The mature RNA, mRNA leaves the nucleus in eukaryotes and joins ribosomes in the cytoplasm to serve as a template for protein synthesis. The process of protein synthesis is called translation as it translates the genetic information of mRNA into the amino acid sequence of proteins. Translation and transcription occur simultaneously in prokaryotes.

How does sexual life cycle increase the genetic variation in a species
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The behavior of chromosomes during meiosis and fertilization is responsible for most of the variation that arises in each generation. Three mechanisms contribute to genetic variation arising from sexual reproduction: independent assortment of chromosomes, crossing over, and random fertilization.

What do we mean when we refer to a cell as differentiated?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

We mean that a cell changes to another type of cell.

Explanation:

<em>Stem cells </em>are a type of cell that has the potential to become a specialized cell, this change or differentiation, is possible thanks to the activation or deactivation of certain genes that promote (or inhibit) the expression of certain proteins that origins different types of cells (fmuscle cells, osteocytes, neurons). This differentiation happens when the cells receive cues internally ( through signals or contact between a group of cells and another or through transcription factors) or externally.

Then, a differentiated cell is a cell that had gone under the previously described process.
