In what way are the humerus and the femur similar?

Biology
1 answer:
marta [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D.

Both the femur and humerus bone have what's called 'spongy bone' inside them and hollow spaces full of yellow and red bone marrow. Additionally, both bones do not attach to the axial skeleton but rather attach to the pelvic or hip bones; while they are both strong bones, they are not made of only compact bone but are made of 'spongy bone' inside them. Lastly, they do not protect any organs but rather allow for movement. D, They both have hollow spaces filled with bone-generating cells, is the best answer in this case

what molecules will be best used to compare different species with the exact same sequence of amino acids? why would two species
AleksandrR [38]

Ans.

Protein synthesis involves formation of proteins, during which information present in DNA is used to make polypeptide chains. Hence, amino acid sequence of a polypeptide chain is determined by the sequence that may differ in different species having proteins with same amino acid sequence.

Thus, the molecules that are used to compare different species with proteins having exact same amino acid sequences are DNA molecules.

Protein synthesis includes two steps, transcription and translation. During transcription, DNA gets converted into RNA by RNA polymerase enzyme, while during translation, RNA provides information to make proteins.

In RNA information is present as triplets of nucleotides, known as codon. Each code codes for a specific amino acid. There are a total of 64 codons, while number of protein-forming amino acids is 20. Hence, one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon and this property of codons is known as degeneracy of codons.

Thus, two species may have the same protein even if their DNA molecules are different because of degeneracy of codons.
