Which statements are true about variations in the genetic code?

Biology
2 answers:
Murrr4er [49]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<u>C) They may provide selective advantages. </u>

<u>D) Slight differences in the genetic code may have significant results.</u>

Explanation:

The genetic code is universal, and present in most living beings . Generally, in most living organisms, the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids.  

DNA sequences make up genes that may have multiple variants, called alleles. DNA deoxyribonucleic acid, is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into amino acids that form proteins.

Natural selection mainly acts on phenotypes, which are dependent on proteins and the organisms's environment.  Phenotypes conferring advantageous traits are favored by the selection process- these help groups of organisms evolve over time.

Movement and balance are monitored by activity in the _______. A) cerebrum
Ivan

Movement and balance are monitored by activity in the cerebellum.

<h3>What is meant by the cerebellum?</h3>

The cerebellum, also known as the "little brain" because it resembles a miniature cerebrum, is in charge of balance, movement, and coordination. The pons and medulla, along with the midbrain, are commonly referred to as the brainstem. The brainstem receives, sends, and coordinates messages from the brain.

The cerebellum is the area of the brain in charge of coordinating voluntary movements. It is also in charge of a variety of functions, including motor skills like balance, coordination, and posture.

The cerebellum is important for maintaining balance by making postural adjustments. It modulates commands to motor neurons based on input from vestibular receptors and proprioceptors to compensate for changes in body position or muscle load.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B) cerebellum.

To learn more about the cerebellum refer to:

A type of implant that is surgically inserted in the inferior border of the mandible is a(n) _______________ implant.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Transosteal

Explanation:

One of the ways to get  a missing or broken tooth fixed is through dental implants. It can also be used to fix loose teeth. For this to occur, a tooth root is needed to hold in place the dental prosthesis. Dental implants involve surgically fixing of metal frames (surgical component) into the jawbone beneath the gum to serve as the tooth root. This surgical implant, which now serves as a tooth root, enables the dentist to fix a replacement tooth.

<em>Transosteal implant</em> is a type of dental implant in which the surgical component is a U-shaped metal frame or pins that is inserted into the lower jaw followed by the replacement tooth on top during tooth replacement.
