g It was noted in the Experimental Pathways feature in Section 10.4 that at least two- thirds of the human genome is derived fro

m transposable elements. The actual number could be much higher, but it is impossible to make a determination about the origin of many other sequences. Why do you suppose it is difficult to make assignments about the origin of many of the sequences in the human genome

Answer:

TEs are repetitive and mobile elements, thereby it is hard to trace their origins  

Explanation:

Repetitive elements are patterns of nucleotide sequences in the DNA characterized to have multiple copies throughout the genome. DNA mini-satellite and Transposable Elements (TEs) are some examples of highly repetitive DNA. TEs are repetitive mobile elements that have the ability to jump within the genome and occupy a major part of eukaryotic genomes. For instance, there is a type of TEs called retrotransposons which mobilize through a copy-and-paste mechanism, thus increasing their number in a genome. In consequence, TEs represent highly repetitive and dynamic genomic sequences, and thereby it is hard to trace their evolutionary histories.

Which of the following is a characteristic of the tidal region of an ocean
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
The defining characteristic of the intertidal zone is that it is submerged with water during high tide and exposed to the air during low tide. The zone can take many forms, from sandy beaches to rocky cliffs. It is common for the intertidal zone to change frequently, since it is constantly battered by crashing waves.

Explain how thing that plants or animals do are done by the work of cells.
ipn [44]
<span>Basically because of the presence of cellular organization and hierarchy which organs are influenced by individual autonomic cells.

The cellular organization relates with one another since the colossal cell, the organ system is fundamentally composed of cells. Cells are the building blocks of these structures and which creates such organ and organ system. They associate as one cell intercommunicates with another cell until all received the message and translates it and sends it with another organ and to cell -vice-versa. And also, they become interdependent with the other cell -other tissue -other organs -other organ system. </span>
Cells when grouped form tissues, when group of tissues are formed together they make organs, some organisms skip from organs to organs systems to form an existing organism as a whole. Describing how is the cells group is the process of multiplication of cell or the so-called cell division, mitosis.This mechanism of each cell produces another cell that binds together and produces again, repeatedly, to be a larger system called now the tissue as explained earlier. How? Through cell division called, mitosis. Excerptmeiosis –cell division specifically in the sex cells.<span> </span>

Explain mendel's experiment with peas on inheritence of characters considering only one visible contrasting character.
m_a_m_a [10]

➜ <u>Mendel conducted breeding experiments with garden peas</u>:

[i] He studied plants (pure) of a tall/short varities.

[ii] He crossed them and obtained F1 progeny.

[iii] He found that F1 progeny was all tall plants.

[iv] He selfed the (hybrid) plants if F1 progeny.

[v] He found that in F2 progeny there were tall as well as short plants.

[vi] The three quarter plants were tall and one quarter was short.

(or any other contrasting character may be taken).

<u>Note</u>: Here, F1 means <u>First fillial generation</u> and F2 means <u>Second fillial generation</u>.
