Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

A. Survive environmental changes.

Explanation:

Genomics refers to the scientific study of genes (DNA) found in living organisms such as humans and animals.

A genome can be defined as the complete set of hereditary instructions that is typically found in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is an organic complex-molecular structure found in all living organisms. It comprises of genes and is essentially the foundation block of all living organisms.

Natural selection can be defined as a biological process in which species of living organisms having certain traits that enable them to adapt to environmental factors such as predators, competition for food, climate change, sex mates, etc., tend to survive and reproduce, as well as passing on their genes to subsequent generations.

Simply stated, natural selection entails the survival of the fittest. Therefore, the species that are able to adapt to the environment will increase in number while the ones who can't adapt will die and go into extinction.

The characteristics which are consistent with the concept of natural selection includes;

I. More offspring are produced than can survive in an environment (overproduction of offspring). This ultimately implies that, the more offsprings that are reproduced by the parent organism, the more likely are they to survive.

II. There is genetic variation within populations. This simply means that there is a better chance of having good or beneficial traits being passed from the parent organism to her offsprings.

III. Organisms with beneficial variations are more likely to survive and reproduce, as well as passing on their genes to subsequent generations.

Hence, a population of living organisms with a large gene pool (gene diversification) is more favorably disposed to survive environmental changes than a species population having a small gene pool.

In conclusion, the higher the genetic makeup of a living organism, the higher are its chances of surviving environmental changes in the ecosystem.

What is the new peptide chain when the new dna segment is translated for 3'- TACAGGGTGCTACCCACT-5'
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- stop

Explanation:

Translation, which occurs in the ribosomes, is the second stage of protein synthesis where mRNA transcript is used to synthesize a peptide chain that eventually forms a protein. The mRNA sequence is read in a group of three nucleotide called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid, which is read and added to the growing peptide chain.

In this question, a DNA sequence reds 3'- TACAGGGTGCTACCCACT-5, the

mRNA sequence from this DNA during transcription will be:

AUG UCC CAC GAU GGG UGA

From this mRNA sequence, the peptide chain that will result following translation is:

Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- stop

How does light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis relate to the position of the sun, both during the day and during the ye
spin [16.1K]
This has something to do with winter seasons. You see, during winter days, <span>the sun is further down in the sky, so the same circle of sunlight covers a wider area, so there is less light per plant. In this case, those plants that are pointing straight at the sun have higher chances of growing better. Hope this answers your question.</span>
