Answer:

<em>make a gene from the given mRNA without the introns.</em>

Explanation:

Introns can be described as the non- coding regions of DNA. As they are non- coding, they are spliced out from the mRNA so that only the coding regions can be translated.

If we know a nucleotide sequence, then we can make a gene from it without added the introns. We can consider an mRNA strand and make a complementary strand from it, excluding the intron regions. Then from the DNA produced, we can make an mRNA without the introns and insert it into a bacterium.

Which of the three things provide evidence that South America, Africa, Antarctica, and Australia were once together as one super
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

- Glacial deposits and scratches in the bedrock from an ice sheet match in distant regions

- Fossils of marsupials were originally the same across South America and Australia

- Cratons match across the edges of continents

Explanation:

South America, Africa, Antarctica, and Australia were all once part of one super-continent. This super-continent has been named Gondwanaland. As the geological processes got more intensive though and Gondwanaland separated into smaller land masses, continents, which we now know as the continents on the Southern Hemisphere. There are numerous clues that confirm that these continents were once connected. Some of the clues are the matching cratons on the edges of the continents, the glacial deposits and scratches in the bedrock are also matching, lot of fossilized flora and fauna from the same species have been found in several of these continents, the marsupials in South America and Australia  etc.

Depending on the type of reproduction, offspring can be genetically identical, a clone of their parent, or genetically distinct.
Vlad [161]

• Offspring are genetically identical to parent-asexual reproduction

Fungi reproduce asexually on different ways such as fragmentation, budding, or producing spores(asexual spores, which are produced by one parentand thus, genetically identical to that parent).

• Offspring genetically distinct-sexual reproduction

Sexual reproduction introduces genetic In fungi, there are two ways(two mating types):both mating types are present in the same mycelium (homothallic) or mycelia require two different mycelia (heterothallic).
