Answer:
1. Adaptive radiation: A pattern of evolution in which slightly different species evolve from one common ancestor.
2. Coevolution: A pattern of evolution in which two species evolve in relation to each other.
3. Convergent evolution: A pattern of evolution in which similar characteristics evolve between two unrelated species.
4. Divergent evolution: A pattern of evolution in which very different species evolve from one common ancestor.
5. Gradualism: A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves by consistent, small, steps.
6. Punctuated equilibrium: A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves in spurts of rapid change and then no change.
Answer:
d: incomplete dominance
Explanation:
incomplete dominance is inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. this results in a third phenotype in which the physical trait is a combination of both alleles.
DNA is the main type of genetic material found in a cell. In addition,
it is found in the nucleus of the cell, so (D) is correct. DNA in the
nucleus is used in replication (through mitosis and meiosis) via
daughter cells to continue cell growth.
Answer:
The correct answer is d. eukaryotes almost always produce polycistronic mRNA
Explanation:
In eukaryotes one transcription unit contains the information of only one gene which codes for only one protein or polypeptide therefore eukaryotic mRNA is called monocistronic mRNA.
In prokaryotes transription unit contains set of genes adjacent to each other which are transcribed together and codes for multiple proteins. So prokaryotic mRNA is called polycistronic mRNA.
Almost all messenger RNA present in eukaryotes are monocistronic mRNA because eukaryotes are more complex than prokaryotes and require modification at many stages which is easily possible with monocistronic mRNA.
