The right answer is The Amazon region (due to its forest)


The Amazon rainforest is an equatorial forest located in the Amazon basin in South America. The Amazon basin covers 7.3 million km² and the forest itself covers about 6 million km², located in nine countries.

The Amazon rainforest is a tropical rainforest with the world's largest biodiversity (it has more species than the rainforests of Africa or Asia).

Most of the terrestrial diversity is found in tropical forests and in general, land has more species than the ocean; some 8.7 million species may exists on Earth, of which some 2.1 million live in the ocean.

Tropical rain forests on land and coral reefs in marine systems are among the most biologically diverse ecosystems on Earth and have become the focus of popular attention.

Amazon represents the quintessence of biodiversity, the richest ecosystem on earth.

Marfan syndrome can be caused by mutations in either of two genes, but mutations in one of the genes blocks activity of the othe
Kazeer [188]

Answer;

-Genetic heterogeneity and epistasis.

Explanation;

-Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects the body's connective tissue that holds all the body's cells, organs and tissue together.

-Genetic heterogeneity is defined as mutations at two or more genetic loci that produce the same or similar phenotypes. Genetic heterogeneity may be either; allelic heterogeneity, which occurs when a similar phenotype is produced by different alleles within the same gene; or locus heterogeneity, which occurs when a similar phenotype is produced by mutations at different loci.

-A gene is said to be epistatic when its presence suppresses the effect of a gene at another locus. Epistatic genes are sometimes called inhibiting genes because of their effect on other genes which are described as hypostatic.

-From these descriptions the marfan syndrome demonstrates both genetic heterogeneity and epistasis.

What would happen if introns were not removed during RNA processing?
Annette [7]

Answer:

The protein would be incorrect and the protein might not function

Explanation:

An intron is a sequence of a DNA that is not involved in coding for a protein. If introns were not removed out during the RNA processing, the RNA strand would probably have many problems. Errors would most likely happen in the translation leading to formation of incorrect code for amino acids and proteins and the cell therefore would not get the amount of proteins needed thus less proteins would be made and proteins might not function.
