Why do cells need to do photosynthesis?

Answer: Photosynthesis is important to living organisms because it is the number one source of oxygen in the atmosphere. Without photosynthesis, the carbon cycle could not occur, oxygen-requiring life would not survive and plants would die.

The observation that different geographical areas sometimes exhibit plant and animal communities of similar appearance, even tho
zaharov [31]

Answer:

C) convergent evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution is a type of pattern of evolution which occurs when the two unrelated species evolves with the same feature or traits as a result of the exposure of the species to the same environmental conditions.

This type of evolution results in ion the formation of the analogous structure which is functionally similar but is evolved from the same ancestor.

In the given question, since the two unrelated species: plants and animals exhibit the same appearance on different geographical areas thus represents that convergent evolution is taking place.

Thus, C) convergent evolution is the correct answer.

In biology, we say that "Every Gene Codes for One Protein". But we've learned that this is
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Two different proteins can be produced from a single gene by the following mechanisms:

  1. Transcriptional Mechanism - Presence of multiple transcription initiation sites in the gene.
  2. Post-transcriptional Mechanism - Generation of multiple transcripts from a single messenger RNA (mRNA) by the method of alternative splicing.
  3. Translational Mechanism - Presence of multiple start codons in the mature mRNA transcript, giving rise to multiple proteins.
  4. Post-translational Mechanism - The protein produced from the mature mRNA transcript can undergo chemical modifications.

Explanation:

  • The gene can have multiple transcription initiation sites. When transcription starts from either of the transcription initiation sites it will give rise to different mRNA transcripts, that in turn, will gives rise to different proteins.
  • Splicing is the method by which the intron sequences are removed from the precursor mRNA molecules and the exons are linked together to give rise to mature primary mRNA transcripts.
  • Alternative splicing is the method involving the differential removal of introns from the precursor mRNA (depending upon the need) resulting in the generation of multiple mature mRNA transcripts that in turn can give rise to multiple proteins.
  • Presence of multiple translational start codons in the mature mRNA transcript allows the differential translation of multiple proteins, by the ribosome, from each start codon.
  • Proteins produced by translation from the mature mRNA transcript can undergo chemical modifications like glycosylation, methylation or lipidation with each having different functions.
