The Kingdom of Tonga is a Polynesian Archipelago in Oceania consisting of 176 islands. During a month long coral reef research mission in Tonga, the Foundation focused on islands in the Hawaii group, Vava’u, and Niuatoputapu. Haʻapai, directly west of the Tonga trench in the central part of Tonga, is made up of 51 volcanic islands and includes Kao, the highest point in the kingdom (1,046 m). Vavaʻu has one large island and 40 smaller ones and includes the second largest city, a large harbor.  The north side of the main island is lined by 200 m high cliffs and extensive open network of fjord-like channels that stretch inland on the north side. Nearly 300 km north of Vavaʻu, close to the border of Samoa is Niuatoputapu, a sparsely inhabited (population 150)  eroded remnant of a volcano surrounded by a large uplifted reef. This island was badly damaged by a tsunami following a submarine earthquake off Samoa in 2009. And for the last question, yes! I would definitely find organisms.

DMD is inherited as an X-linked disease. X-linked genetic disorders are conditions caused by an abnormal gene on the X chromosome and manifest mostly in males. Females that have a defective gene present on one of their X chromosomes are carriers for that disorder

Use the following words to fill in the blanks: nucleus, base-pairing, transcription, translation, genes, cytoplasm, polypeptide
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Use the following words to fill in the blanks: nucleus, base-pairing, transcription, translation, genes, cytoplasm, polypeptide chain, structure, ribosome, proteins, protein synthesis, cytosine, adenine, uracil, tRNA, mRNA, amino acid, DNA, RNA polymerase, codon.

DNA is made up of segments called  nucleotides

. Genes provide the coding to create  codon

. Proteins are created through the processes of  translation

and  transcription

. Together these processes are known as  protein synthesis

. The first step in protein synthesis is transcription, where translation

is used as the template for the creation of an mRNA strand. The enzyme,  RNA  Polymerase

matches up the correct bases, using  base-pairing

rules. When adenine is found on the DNA strand,  cytosine

will be the complementary base on the mRNA strand. When thymine is found on the DNA strand,  adenine

will be the complementary base on the mRNA strand.

and guanine are the other two bases that pair with one another. Since DNA is too large to leave the nucleus of the cell,  tRNA

must be created. It is smaller and able to travel outside the  nucleus

of a cell. Next, mRNA leaves the nucleus, heads through the  cytoplasm

towards a  ribosome

where translation occurs. In the ribosome, a  codon

on the mRNA strand (3 bases), connects to the anticodon on a  tRNA

molecule. When the codon and anticodon connect, the  amino acid

on the tRNA molecule detaches, forming a  polypeptide chain

which eventually makes up the protein. Proteins are essential for life because they make up the  structure

of living organisms and help organisms to function.

Use the drop-down menus to decide if an example of similar traits is likely a homologous structure or an analogous structure.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

- Bird wings and dragonfly wings are both used for flight: Analogous structure

- Clams and snails both have similar muscle structure even though the muscles do different jobs: Homologous structure  

- Human and giraffe necks both have 7 vertebrae because we are related: Homologous structure  

- The flaps of a Venus flytrap have a similar makeup to oak leaves: Homologous structure  

Explanation:

Analogous structures are similar structures that have the same or similar functions in unrelated organisms. Analogous structures aren't the result of evolutionary relationships among organisms (i.e., they were not inherited from a common ancestor). On the other hand, homologous structures are structures inherited from a common ancestor. Homologous structures may or may not have an identical function, but they are the result of evolutionary relationships among organisms and, therefore, they are genetically related.
