The correct answer is option C, An organism experienced punctuated equilibrium and rapidly evolved into another organism entirely

The biologist and geologist have not been able to identify the cause of sudden appearance and disappearance of an organism in the fossil record. They then coined the term punctuated equilibrium which supports the concept of lack of information regarding the changing fossil records. The punctuated equilibrium believes that evolution happened suddenly in a very short duration. There are lot of missing links regarding the transitional forms of any evolving organisms which now is used to support sudden appearance of an organism in the fossil record

What is the approximate percentage of guanine in the DNA genome of E. coli?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

<em>The approximate proportion of G + C content in the genome of E. coli has been reported to be 50%. According to Chargaff's rule, the amount of guanine in any DNA must be approximately equal to the amount of cytosine. </em>Hence,

if G + C = 50 and G = C,

then

G = C = 25

Therefore, the approximate percentage of guanine in the genome of <em>E. coli </em>would be 25.

Which does not belong between carrot,beetroot,potato,radish?
Aloiza [94]
The answer is <span>potato.

Potato is a stem tuber while carrot, beetroot, and radish are true root crops and not tubers.
</span>

Tuber is a structure that provides nutrients for the next season regrowth. It is specialised for asexual reproduction. Potato is a stem tuber, for example. In one growing season, the tuber is produced and used to perennate the plant. In the autumn, when the plant structure above-ground dies, the tuber survives underground over the winter. When spring comes, tuber regenerates new shoots thanks to nutrients stored. On the other hand, true root crops (carrot, beetroot, radish) are modified roots to store energy but they are not specialised for asexual reproduction.
