<span>The two main sources that lead to increased genetic variation are:

</span>1. Gamete mutations
2. Recombination.

Gamete mutations:
Gametic mutations are the mutations that occur in germline cells (sperm and egg). Due to this, the mutations are able to be passed on from one generation to another. One of the most famous gametic mutations<span> is hemophilia.
</span>
Recombination:
Genetic recombination is the production of offspring with combinations of traits that differ from those found in either parent.

What is the difference between insight and cultural behavior
nydimaria [60]
Culture and behavior are related to each other because behavior defines culture as well as culture defines behavior. A person behaves in such a way that it is what the culture tells him or her to do. On the other hand, behavior defines culture because the way a person acts is a reflection of his or her culture.

What did Wegener use to support his theory of continental drift?
asambeis [7]
The first argument Wegener put forward in support of his theory was that the continents seemed to fit together like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. This relationship is apparent from a map, but the exactness of the match improves if the underwater continental shelves are compared. The true edges of South America and Africa, for example, fit together to a high degree of precision, allowing for millions of years of erosion.
Wegener's second argument was more complex. He traveled the world and charted the locations and orientation of glacial till deposits. These deposits are the alluvial remnant of a glacier's progress across the landscape, and they remain long after the glacier has melted away. By plotting out the latitudes of ancient till deposits, Wegener was able to demonstrate that, for his evidence to be consistent with unmoving continents, much of the world would have had to be covered in ice sheets in the relatively recent past, even in the tropics. He argued that this was evidence that the tropical continents had once been at higher latitudes.

RNA synthesis is always 5' to 3' because: A. the unwinding of the double-stranded DNA can only move one direction B. the structu
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option E. "nucleotides can only be added to an available 3'-OH group on the transcript terminus".

Explanation:

RNA synthesis is catalyzed by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. RNA polymerase always catalyze the synthesis of new RNA from 5' to 3' because nucleotides can only be added to an available 3'-OH group on the transcript terminus. This has been confirmed in labeling experiments with γ-32P substrates which establish the presence of a triphosphate moiety in transcripts with either pppG or pppA.
