A change in DNA resulting in an incorrect protein is the problem in sickle cell disease. Is this normally the problem in genetic

diseases?
A. Yes, the DNA may be "correct" but can produce abnormal proteins which cause disease.
B. No. In other genetic diseases, the proteins are all correctly made, but then they damage the DNA.
C. No. Most genetic diseases result from errors in cell division.
D. Yes, abnormal proteins created by abnormal DNA is the problem in all genetic diseases.
E. It's not clear what the problem is in most genetic diseases.

Answer:

D. Yes, abnormal proteins created by abnormal DNA is the problem in all genetic diseases.

Explanation:

DNA carries the information for the correct development and function of the human body. A gene is defined as a DNA fragment that codifies for a protein, this means that genes carry the information to shape a protein in the ribosomes. If the information is "corrupted" proteins can still be formed but can't work correctly.

This would cause a growth in population of said beetles and a possible decrease in population for animals that consume the beetles.

How does analogous structures support evolution?
Lapatulllka [165]
As evidenced by their most recent common ancestor, the wings of the butterfly and the wings of the bat evolved independently, long after their ancestral lineages diverged. More examples of analogous structures: wings of various species (though the bones supporting the wing may be homologous, in some cases)

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

cycling of molecules

Explanation:

In a cell, the flux of energy is associated to the cycling of molecules among subcellular compartments. In coupled reactions, the cycling of molecules between mitochondria and chloroplasts is required to produce the flow of energy and to sustain the life of the Earth. Chloroplasts produce chemical energy by using solar energy to convert water and carbon dioxide (CO2) into oxygen (O2) and high energy carbohydrates (i.e., sugars and starches). Subsequently, in the mitochondria, the process of cellular respiration enables to convert the carbohydrates into high energy molecules (ATP), releasing water and CO2.
