Is there a Genetic Basis for Adapting to Life at High Altitudes? A team of scientists from the United States and China set out t

o answer these questions. They began their search for a genetic basis for high-altitude hardiness by looking for genes that differed between the Tibetan people and closely related, but low-dwelling, neighbors. They collected DNA sequence data from 50 Tibetans and 40 nearby Chinese low-dwellers. For comparison, the scientists also collected DNA sequence data from 200 low-dwelling Danes, a more distantly related population.

Answer:

Looking at tibetan highlanders who thrive at high altitudes- normally that would make us sick- they have adapted, 60% oxygen- could pose huge health issue (live with 10% less oxygen in blood than us)

Explanation:

Evolutionary adaptations- involve a change in the genetic makeup to help individuals survive in environment. Tibetans have adaptations to let them function at high altitudes

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: AUG GU UGG AAU

Explanation: Since it's a point mutation which only effects single nucleotide; so in CGA codon, the second codon, deletion mutation has been occured while mRna strand is going to be synthesized, this has shortened the length of the resulting protein developed from these codons.

Since RNA contains uracil instead of thymine, so in place of thymine (T), uracil has been placed.

How does increasing oceanic co2 intake affect atmospheric co2 and oceanic co2?
Kamila [148]

Answer: CO2 impacts the atmosphere because it causes temperatures to slowly rise over time. Oxygen produced from plants counter act CO2 with the carbon dioxide exchange but it still impacts the atmosphere to a certain level. it affects oceanic areas because it causes sea levels to rise, as well as increase the acidic levels in the water. hope this helps!

What enhances the satability of mRNA
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Promoter Strength

Explanation:

More than increasing mRNA stability, the promoter strength can be tuned to increase the gene expression by producing more quantities of the mRNA. The strength is based on efficient promoter recognition and rapid binding of the DNA polymerase.

hope it helps : )
