The answer is hox gene.
Hox genes are responsible for an embryo's body plan. They determine different body structures - legs, vertebrae, antennae, wings, depending on groups. Mutation in hox genes is serious mutation since it affects the early stages of embryo and consequently, normal development. If a mutation occurs in the hox gene for legs growth, the legs will not develop.
Answer:
Increased hydration, increased fiber in the clients diet, and possibly see his medical provider for pharmaceutical intervention if necessary.
Explanation:
Changes in a DNA sequence that affect genetic information are known as mutations.
DNA contains sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains sugar ribose,
DNA is a double-stranded molecule, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule.
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Long term hunting has led to following
a) Reduction in population size and hence the gene pool
b) Causation of Bottleneck effect
Due to above factors, the remaining population of Northern elephant seals does not represent the original genetic problem.
Due to this restriction in mating and genetic variation shall prevail pertaining to reduced gene pool.
Due to continuous hunting, the gene pool will further shrink, leading to genetic similarity among the organism
Option C is correct
