You are examining the DNA sequences that code for the enzyme phosphofructokinase in skinks and Komodo dragons. You notice that t

he coding sequence that actually directs the sequence of amino acids in the enzyme is very similar in the two organisms but that the surrounding sequences vary quite a bit. What is the most likely explanation for this?
A. Coding sequences are repaired more efficiently.
B. Coding sequences are replicated more efficiently.
C. Coding sequences are packaged more tightly in th e chromosomes to protect them from DNA damage.
D. Mutations in coding sequences are more likely to e deleterious to the organism than mutations in noncoding sequences.
E. Recombination between skink and Komodo dragon DNA occurred recently.

Answer: D. Mutation in coding sequences are more likely to be deleterious to the organism than mutations in noncoding sequences.

Explanation: It was not likely to be that the coding sequences are replicated more often. The only possible explanation is that the mutations in coding is more likely to be deleterious to the organism than mutations because it is in a non coding sequence.

Please Explain. Why does salt water boil at a lower temperature than tap water?
nexus9112 [7]
We observe that heat capacity of salted water we will find that it is less than pure water. We now that it takes less energy to increase the temperature of the salt water 1°C than pure water. Which means that the salted water heats up faster and eventually reaches to its boiling point first.

A beaker cannot be used for measuring the volume of a liquid because _____.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Data obtained can't be accurate.

Explanation:

A beaker can't be used for measuring the volume of a liquid because they did not calculate volume of a liquid accurately and precisely. The marks present on the beaker are not accurate, it is just an estimate so by measuring the volume of any liquid using beaker give us a false data so that's why beaker are not used for the measurement of a volume.

Using the following equation for the combustion of octane calculate the heat associated with the formation of 100.0 g of carbon
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The right solution is "-602.69 KJ heat".

Explanation:

According to the question,

The 100.0 g of carbon dioxide:

= \frac{100.0 \ g}{114.33\  g/mole}

= 0.8747 \ moles

We know that 16 moles of CO_2 formation associates with -11018 kJ of heat, then

0.8747 moles CO_2 formation associates with,

= -\frac{0.8747}{16}\times 11018 \ KJ \ of \ heat

= -0.0547\times 11018

= -602.69 \ KJ \ heat
