Answer:
D) the arrangement of the nucleotides within genes
Explanation:
De-oxy ribo nucleic acid that is basically a polymer of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of three basic units: a de-oxyribose sugar unit, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases that can be Adenine, Gunanine, Thymine and Cytosine.Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.
This is a universal composition of DNA in each and every living organism. The genes are a segment of DNA that contain specific sequence of nucleotides and encode for a specific trait of organism such as height, weight, eye color etc. The sequence of nucleotides expresses the trait in the form of protein product during the process of Translation. The products of translation are amino acids and every amino acids encode for a specific protein in almost all living organisms.
So, what differs in the specie is the sequence of nucleotides in genes. Infact this is the nucleotide sequence which brings evolution in organism and organisms evolve to form new specie with the passage of time. One major cause of change in nucleotide sequence is mutations due to which the organisms change with time.
Suppose the sequence of nucleotide of specific gene in organism A is
AAGGGGAAATTT
However in other specie organism B of same specie is:
TAGGGGAAATTT
This means only mutation of one base changed the gene in organism B and also its product called protein.
Hope it help!
Answer: b - Chondroblasts within the cartilage divide and secrete new matrix
Explanation: Chondroblasts are derived from two sources; mesenchymal cells within the center of chondrification and chondrogenic cells of the inner cellular layer of the perichondrium (coverings that lie over most cartilage).
At the chondrification centers, the cartilage forming cells (Chondroblasts) begin to secrete the components of extracellular matrix of cartilage. As the amount of matrix increases, the Chondroblasts become separated from each other and they are located in small cavity within the matrix called lacunae.
Concurrently, the cells differentiate into matured cartilage cells called chondrocytes.
Answer:
Dehydration
Explanation:
What causes bacteria to die in an extremely salty environment is dehydration due to the loss of osmotic balance in their cells.
Water molecules would normally move from the region of high water potential or low solute concentration to the region of low water potential or high solute concentration through a biologically permeable membrane.
<em>An extremely salty environment would be hypertonic to the cells of bacteria and the cell walls of bacteria act as biologically permeable membranes. Hence, the bacteria cells lose water due to the osmotic movement of water from their cells to the surrounding salty environment. </em>
Answer:
This is how cells gene regulation occur.
Explanation:
Regulation of gene expression is very very important thing to maintain the normal levels of all body proteins according to our body"s requirement.
During positive gene regulation enzymes of various metabolic pathways of the target cell is being activated,thus supplying the cellular need of various metabolites and proteins.
During negative regulation various enzymes are turned off thus blocking the formation of metabolites or proteins not required by the cell.
Light bends when it hits water so it can only travel so far. So the deeper you go the less light there will be.
Explanation:
The ocean is broken into three zones based on intensity and light level. The upper 200 meters (656 feet) of the ocean is called the euphotic, or "sunlight," zone. This zone includes the vast preponderance of commercial fisheries and is home to many preserved marine mammals and sea turtles.Only a small amount of light penetrates behind this depth.The zone between 200 meters (656 feet) and 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) is usually regarded to as the “Twilight” zone, but is authorized the dysphotic zone. In this zone, the intensity of light rapidly consumes as depth increases. Such a miniscule amount of light penetrates beyond a depth of 200 meters that photosynthesis is no eternal possible.The aphotic, or “midnight,” zone survives in depths below 1,000 meters (3,280 feet). Sunlight does not perceive to these depths and the zone is immersed in darkness.
