I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The conclusion that the fossil record support is that species have changed over time. It supports the theory of evolution rather than the creation. Hope this answers the question.
The genetic base of the shape of orchid is very complex.
Mendelian traits are described as simple traits determined by one gene. The different alleles of the gene contribute to the difference in the trait. This is true for some traits in plants, animals including humans and other organisms, but not for the shape of orchids.
The shape of orchid flowers is determined by the ABCDE group of genes that are responsible for the body plan in plants. These genes are the equivalent of HOX genes of animals.
The protein products of different genes of the ABCDE group interact with each other in complex ways creating different shapes of orchids.
Mutations are caused by changes in nucleotide bases. these altered base formed different amino acid depending upon nucleotide base sequence that code specific amino acid. ... even though some mutations, can have a more effect on amino acid coding, which can affect what kind of proteins are produced.
The complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA is <u>ACGAAT</u> when one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Deoxyribonucleic acid is the one which carries the genetic information from the parent to the offspring. During DNA replication one strand of DNA replicates to produce another strand.
The DNA molecule have a anti-parallel structure and the two strands run in opposite direction. If in one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA will be ACGAAT.
Answer: D.
Explanation: Members of the same species do not have the same number of cells. Think differences in height or weight. They do not have identical traits. Think siblings. They cannot create different species. Two wolves cannot make a coyote.
