Scientists recently published a paper about an endangered population of Scarlet Bass (species A) in Lake Erie. The authors also

published its entire mitochondrial DNA sequence on Genbank, an online system where scientists submit genomic data. Another group of scientists later published an article using molecular data to estimate gene flow among populations of the very abundant Grey Bass species (species B) in Lake Erie, and published mitochondrial data on Genbank as well. After you read the papers you realize that the ranges for species A and a few isolated populations of species B overlap; you look at the sequence data published online from both studies, and you realize they are very similar and differ only by a few nucleotide differences. 8. Do you think these are closely related species, or variants of the same species

Answer:

They are variants

Explanation:  

The biological concept of species states that members of the same species can reproduce they have a genetic reservoir in common: many genetic variants.

Genetic variability is the measure of a species organism´s tendency to differentiate. In genetic variability, individuals of the same species are not identical. They are recognizable as members of the same species, but they differ in shape, function, and behavior. There exist variations among individuals of the same species.

Genetic variability originates from mutations, recombinations, and karyotype alterations. It allows or makes possible evolution.

Groups A and B can be considered variations of the same species. They not only overlap but also share most of the genetic sequences with only a few nucleotide differences.

These variations might be the previous step for sympatric speciation.

How do the respiratory and circulatory systems work together to make gas exchange possible?
horrorfan [7]
Oxygen-poor blood enters the heart through the right atrium. From there blood flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. When the heart contracts during the diastolic phase, this blood is pumped out through the pulmonary arteries that run toward the lungs. At the lungs, the blood is circulated through a series of progressively smaller arterioles until it flows through capillaries lining the lungs' alveolar sacs. It is here that gas exchange takes place as oxygen is taken up by the blood, and carbon dioxide is released into the waste air.After oxygenation, the fresh blood is circulated back through the bronchial veins and into the pulmonary veins. These run from the lungs and drain into the heart's left atrium. During the systolic phase of the heartbeat, the mitral valve under the left atrium opens and permits blood to pass into the left ventricle. This chamber is heavily muscled and it has the power to pump the oxygen-rich blood out through the aorta and into the rest of the body.

A scientist tests a sample in the lab and finds
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

It is difficult to obtain a final conclusion with this information, but it is possible that the sample doesn't contain living organisms whose genetic material is composed of DNA. Another possible reason for this result is that the DNA extraction protocol used in the experiment is not suitable for this sample.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

It's important to note that Characteristics, e.g. organizational skills, are behavioral and environmentally influenced and not specifically inherited.

Explanation:

NOTE:

Genes expression is an interaction between the environment and genetics.

Behavior is both genetically and environmentally influenced.

That's why skills like organizational skill is genetically influenced but it is a learned behavior.
