Answer:
It is possible to determine their functions and to identify the mechanism involved in their mode of inheritance
Explanation:
Matrilineal inheritance refers to the inheritance of genes directly from the mother, it either through the inheritance of mitochondrial DNA or by the epigenetic mechanism of genomic imprinting (in the case above indicated, maternal imprinting). By mutating genes which are inherited from the mother it is possible to study their functions as well as their mode of inheritance. By using a reverse genetics approach, many maternal imprinted genes have recently been identified to be involved in embryo development, especially in model organisms like <em>Drosophila</em>.
812.5/1.25=650
So it will take 650 years to widen another 812.5 centimeters
In order to identify the most recent common ancestor of an animal, the physical and genetic makeup of the organisms must be compared. The two organisms must have striking similarities in order to be considered as closely related.
Despite the difference in their size, the domestic ferret has a great resemblance with the features of an Eastern European polecat. In addition, they have the ability to cross-breed with polecats. Therefore, the most recent ancestor of the ferret is the Eastern European polecat.
This took a long time to type cuz I am a slow typer. But I hope I got the answer correct! Hope you have a great day!:)
