A scientist is comparing the sequences of related genes among three species. Two of the species have very similar sequences, whi

le the sequence of the third species differs greatly from the others. The scientist uses this comparison to propose an evolutionary history of the species. Which statement best explains the usefulness of the evidence that the scientist gathered?
A. Mutations can act as a molecular clock that show when species had a common ancestor.

B. Changes in gene sequences generally occur when two species interbreed.

C. Changes in gene sequences generally occur when one species evolves into another species.

D. Although some mutations have little effect, many mutations act to distinguish one species from another.

How is it possible for a metamorphic rock to change into an igneous rock over time
Naily [24]

Answer:

It's possible.

Explanation:

If the recently formed metamorphic rock keeps on warming, it can ultimately soften and become molten (magma). At the point when the liquid stone cools it frames a molten rock, which is igneous. Metamorphic rocks can form from either sedimentary or volcanic/igneous rocks.

How does diploidy help to preserve genetic variation? see concept 23.4 (page 498)?
mario62 [17]
Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.
