A scientist is attempting to provide support for the hypothesis that RNA was the first genetic material. Which of the following

would be a workable alternate hypothesis?
(A) RNA, like DNA, is a carrier of genetic information and contains the nitrogen bases adenine, guanine, and cytosine.
(B) RNA can be observed to self-replicate without the assistance of proteins, while DNA always requires protein-based enzymes to replicate.
(C) RNA exists in both single-stranded and double-stranded configurations; however, it is less stable compared with DNA.
(D) Transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA are products of transcription, but they are not translated as is mRNA.

Answer:

(A) RNA like DNA is a carrier of genetic information and contains the nitrogen bases adenine, guanine and cytosine.

Explanation:

RNA is a single stranded molecule which is replicating molecule that plays its role evolution of different stages. DNA is double stranded molecule that is stable under alkaline conditions and perform various functions in different body parts. RNA provides template on which DNA nucleotides assemble.

Classify each item as being associated with light positioning (controlling how and where light strikes the retina) or sensory pr
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

- light positioning: c. Extrinsic muscles; d. Pupil

- sensory processing: a. Photoreceptors; b. Occipital cortex; e. Bipolar cells

Explanation:

Extrinsic (extraocular) muscles are muscles that modulate both eye movement and position, whereas intrinsic (intraocular) muscles are muscles that focus the eye and control how much light enters into the eye. The pupil is the black center of the eye within the iris through which light passes before being focused onto the retina. Photoreceptors are specialized neurons located in the retina that respond to light, converting it into electrical signals that can stimulate biological processes. Photoreceptors in the retina are divided into two categories 1-rods (responsible for vision at low light levels), and 2-cones (active at higher light). Bipolar cells are neurons that transmit signals from the photoreceptors to the ganglion cells, thereby processing light signals received from rods and cones. The occipital cortex is a brain region that represents the visual processing center and contains most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex.
