Write an explanation for how the process of evolution

Elenna [48]

There is a lot of competition. From food, water, shelter, mates... only the best, the organisms with the desirable traits survive. They survive and are able to reproduce, passing on their genes to the next generation. As this natural selection occurs, the traits that are necessary for survival are passed on, and over a long period of time this results in evolution.

What regulates breathing rate and how does the body sense when to breath?

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Involuntary respiration is controlled by the respiratory centers of the upper brainstem (sometimes termed the lower brain, along with the cerebellum). This region of the brain controls many involuntary and metabolic functions besides the respiratory system, including certain aspects of cardiovascular function and involuntary muscle movements (in the cerebellum).

Explanation:

The respiratory centers contain chemoreceptors that detect pH levels in the blood and send signals to the respiratory centers of the brain to adjust the ventilation rate to change acidity by increasing or decreasing the removal of carbon dioxide (since carbon dioxide is linked to higher levels of hydrogen ions in blood).

A mutation within the promoter region can alter transcription of a gene. Describe how this can happen.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Correct

Explanation:

A mutation within the promoter sequences could lead to an alteration of its transcription basal level when:

The mutation is different enough to lower the transcription factors affinity to bind to this region.

Lowering the affinity of RNA polymerase, by reducing either the length or the sequence composition.
