In every species in nature, some individuals survive while may others die.

Hutton, Lyell:

The environment of organisms may change over time.

Explanation:

Darwin's revolutionary ideas were influenced by a number of scientists and thinkers of the time:

Jean Baptiste Lamarck:

A botanist and zoologist, Lamarck, for, the first time, proposed the idea of evolutionary changes or adaptations in organisms in response to changes in the environment. He introduced the concept of inheritance of acquired characters.

Thomas Malthus:

Thomas Malthus was not a biologist, but an economist who proposed the ideas that at the rate of the current population growth, human population would eventually suffer from famine and starvation.This would lead to the deaths of the weakest of the population. This idea inspired Darwin to formulate the idea of "the survival of the fittest".

Charles Lyell and James Hutton:

Charles Lyell and James Hutton were famous geologists who greatly influenced Darwin with their theories about the beginning and evolution of the Earth. Charles Lyell proposed that the present state of the Earth was a result of small, gradual changes. James Hutton theorized that the processes that too place at the beginning of the Earth were still in progress.

Lyell and Hutton's work paved the way for the formulation of the theory of natural selection.

Which of the processes are coupled (i.e. LINKED) in prokaryotic organisms but uncoupled (i.e. UNLINKED) in eukaryotic organisms?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Transcription & translation (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Prokaryotic organisms do not have membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, thus the process of transcription & translation occurs in the cytoplasm. Also because of the need for rapid life cycle, the mRNA molecules start to be made, & their ribosomes are ready to start making proteins more rapidly than Eukaryote, thus the process of the couple is quicker.

In eukaryotic organisms, transcription process start (happens) inside the nucleus of the cell and translation process can't start until the mRNA is transported out from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
