The given blank can be filled with forward genetics.  

Forward genetic screen or forward genetics refers to a method used to determine a set of genes or genes accountable for a specific phenotype of a species. On the other hand, reverse genetics or reverse genetic screen evaluates the phenotype of a species following the disruption of a known gene.  

The method of forward genetics was initially done by inducing mutants with radiation, by using naturally occurring mutations, insertional mutagenesis, or chemicals.

What evidence is there that the 15 species of finch all evolved from one common ancestor?
antoniya [11.8K]
Darwin’s Finches: Darwin observed that beak shape varies among finch species. He postulated that the beak of an ancestral species had adapted over time to equip the finches to acquire different food sources. This illustration shows the beak shapes for four species of ground finch: 1. Geospiza magnirostris (the large ground finch), 2. G. fortis (the medium ground finch), 3. G. parvula (the small tree finch), and 4. Certhidea olivacea (the green-warbler finch) the Grants measured beak sizes in the much-reduced population, they found that the average bill size was larger. This was clear evidence for natural selection of bill size caused by the availability of seeds. The Grants had studied the inheritance of bill sizes and knew that the surviving large-billed birds would tend to produce offspring with larger bills, so the selection would lead to evolution of bill size. Subsequent studies by the Grants have demonstrated selection on and evolution of bill size in this species in response to other changing conditions on the island. The evolution has occurred both to larger bills, as in this case, and to smaller bills when large seeds became rare.

If no ATP is present in the muscle cell what would be the likely result?
Elden [556K]

Answer: c. The myosin would not be able to let go of the actin

Explanation:

Muscles consists of two proteins called actin and myosin and responsible for muscle contraction.

Myosin is ATP dependant and when ATP binds to it, it is able to release the actin.

This will allow the actin and myosin to seperate from each other thus leading to muscle contraction
