Answer:

How long ago did two species of birds share an ancestor?

Explanation:

Molecular clocks estimates the time of divergence of two species or populations from each other. The process compares the total number of different nucleotide present in genome of two organisms. The average rate at which the specific gene evolves tells about the dates of evolutionary branch points. By comparing the total number of different nucleotides present in genome of two birds species, molecular clock can answer "How long ago did two species of birds share an ancestor?"

If the yellow mottle virus begins its infection of a cell by using its genome as mRNA, which of the following would you expect t
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

C) translation rate

Explanation:

The process of gene expression involves DNA transcription into mRNA and translation of mRNA into protein.

During transcription, genetic message in DNA is encoded into mRNA. The encoded messages are then translated into their respective amino acids during the process of translation.

<em>Hence, if a virus uses its genome as mRNA, the next stage will be to translate the messages in the mRNA into amino acids. Translation rate is expected to be measurable.</em>

The correct option is C.

The entrance of a microbe into an individual's vascular space has initiated opsonization. How will the health care provider expl
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

B) Coating of microbe to aid phagocyte recognition

Explanation:

Opsonization is the process and mechanism which targets the foreign body and helps in the recognition of the pathogen by the phagocytic cells such as the macrophages and dendritic cell.

The opsonization enhances the process of phagocytosis as the opsonin substances which could be the antibodies, proteins or other molecules which could be easily recognised by the phagocytic cells gets attached to the pathogen.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Opsonization is the coating of a particle with proteins that facilitate phagocytosis of the particle by tissue macrophages and activated follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) as well as binding by receptors on peripheral blood cells
