Answer:

Horizontal Gene transfer

Explanation:

The phenomenon that accounts for the movement of these genes is Horizontal Gene transfer. Also known as Lateral gene transfer is the movement of genetic material between unicellular organism other than by vertical transmission of DNA from parent to offspring. Horizontal gene transfer(HGT) is very important for the evolution of organism.

At a particular location in the human genome is the sequence AATGGAGTC on one of the chromosomes. This sequence occurs in about
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

c. AATGGAGTT

d. AATAGAGTC

Explanation:

SNP is a single nucleotide polymorphism. It means that a particular sequence varies among the members of a population with respect to the single nucleotide. The given sequence of the human genome is "AATGGAGTC". The sequence "AATGGAGTT" of option C differs from it with respect to the single nucleotide at the last position (C is replaced with T).

Similarly, the sequence of option D "AATAGAGTC" differs with respect to the nucleotide at position 4 (G in the original sequence is replaced with A). Therefore, these two sequences represent SNP with respect to the given sequence of the human genome.
