Why does physarum polycephalum branch out like a plant or fungus?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Physarum first grows as single-celled amoebae, but the amoebae fuse, and the organism loses its 'cellular' makeup. As the organism continues to grow, nuclei divide without cell division. The resulting bag of nuclei is called a 'coenocyte' or 'plasmodium'.

DNA sequences can act as "tape measures of evolution". Scientists analyzing the human genome sequence were surprised to find tha
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Non-coding DNA regions play important roles in regulating transcriptional activity by encoding different types of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), acting as scaffold attachment regions, acting as enhancer specific regions, etc.

Explanation:

Historically, it had been believed that non-coding DNA sequences were 'junk DNA' since they don't encode for proteins (beyond the sequences that are transcribed into functional non-coding RNAs, i.e., transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA). However, in the last years, it has been shown that non-coding DNA sequences play critical roles in regulating gene expression and genome function. For example, evolutionary conserved non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) with regulatory roles on gene expression such as, for example, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have been mapped in non-coding DNA sequences, thereby evidencing the functional significance of these regions. In consequence, the conservative nature of certain non-coding DNA sequences evidence that mutations in such regions may have significant deleterious effects, and thereby they could have a negative impact on the fitness of the individual.
