Ans.

Protein synthesis involves formation of proteins, during which information present in DNA is used to make polypeptide chains. Hence, amino acid sequence of a polypeptide chain is determined by the sequence that may differ in different species having proteins with same amino acid sequence.

Thus, the molecules that are used to compare different species with proteins having exact same amino acid sequences are DNA molecules.

Protein synthesis includes two steps, transcription and translation. During transcription, DNA gets converted into RNA by RNA polymerase enzyme, while during translation, RNA provides information to make proteins.

In RNA information is present as triplets of nucleotides, known as codon. Each code codes for a specific amino acid. There are a total of 64 codons, while number of protein-forming amino acids is 20. Hence, one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon and this property of codons is known as degeneracy of codons.

Thus, two species may have the same protein even if their DNA molecules are different because of degeneracy of codons.

How do greenshouse gases affect earth
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Burning fossil fuels like coal and oil puts more carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. NASA has observed increases in the amount of carbon dioxide and some other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. Too much of these greenhouse gases can cause Earth's atmosphere to trap more and more heat. This causes Earth to warm up.

<h3>What are evolutionary trees?</h3>

Evolutionary trees are trees that help to arrange and reconstruct the evolutionary history of species or groups of organisms belonging to either genera, families, or orders. The trees reconstruct and show case two form of information that is related to evolutionary change, cladogenesis and anagenesis.

Therefore, They aren't all the same is not true of evolutionary trees.

What is a key feature of meiosis and a result of crossing over?
inn [45]

Answer:

Chromosomes can exchange genetic information during a process called "crossing over." This occurs when homologous chromosomes are lined up in pairs. This recombination of maternal and paternal genetic material is a key feature of meiosis.
