There's two effects that the islands have on the size of the animals, reducing of size, or increasing of size. The reducing of size is known as island dwarfism, while the increase in size is known island gigantism.
The effect of the island environment effects different types of animals in different manner, and it also has to be taken in account the size of the island. In general, the small animals tend to increase their size on the islands, while the large animals tend to decrease in size. The reason for this is that the smaller animals, because of the isolation, usually lack predators or they are very few, but also have sufficient amounts of food, thus they grow in size. The larger animals though, decrease their size because there isn't enough food on the islands to support them, thus with the decrease in size they consume less. Also, since they usually lack predators, they do not have to be large in order to defend themselves.
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by DNA. In a protein that is present in all species, the amino acid sequence will be different. Once a protein has been chosen, the amino acid sequence of that protein in different species are compared. More similarities, or fewer differences, indicate that two species are closely related.

Because the chromatin condenses into compacted chromosomes.
<span>During mitosis, chromatin condenses starting from the prophase to the end of cell division. Condensation of chromatin protects the DNA during cell division and facilitate its mobility and transport. </span>
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
These components are not sufficient to successfully perform a PCR reaction. Deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dATP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP) are missing so that the PCR reaction can occur perfectly.
The PCR technique allows a specific fragment of the DNA molecule to be amplified thousands of times in just a few hours. This technique revolutionized research in molecular biology because it had taken a long time for DNA amplification. From PCR it is possible to obtain enough copies of a part of DNA to detect and analyze the sequence that is the target of the study.
For a PCR reaction to be performed a solution with some components must be prepared. These components are:
- Magnesium chloride buffer (to optimize reaction and act as a cofactor for polymerase)
- Forward and reverse primers (to customize the start of the enzyme reaction)
- DNA polymerase (Enzyme required for replication of desired DNA region.)
- DNA Template (the DNA to be copied)
- PCR-grade water
- Deoxynucleoside triphosphates: dATP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP (act as bricks in the construction of DNA molecules).
Answer:
The beating or fanning movements of three pairs of maxilliped flagella in crabs and crayfish modify exhalent gill currents while drawing water over chemoreceptors on the head. They play an integral part both in signalling by distributing urine odours, and in active chemosensation.
