Answer:
1. CGAGGTT → CGTT (Deletion)
2. ATTCGG → ATTCGGATTCGG (Duplication)
3. CTTAAT → TAATTC (Inversion)
4. CTTAAT → CTTAACGCT (Insertion)
5. CGAT → CTAT (Substitution)
6. CCGGTT + TTAGGC = CCGTTA + GTTGGC (Translocation)
Explanation:
1. CGAGGTT → CGTT (Deletion) ---- This is called deletion because it involves the removal of 3 base pairs (AGG) from the DNA sequence.
2. ATTCGG → ATTCGGATTCGG (Duplication) ---- In this case, the particular sequence (ATTCGG) is copied again or duplicated.
3. CTTAAT → TAATTC (Inversion)----- This is called inversion mutation because the DNA sequence breaks off and is reattached but this time in a reverse order i.e. CTT becomes TTC, placing the last base first and the first base last.
4. CTTAAT → CTTAACGCT (Insertion) ------ This is called insertion mutation because it involves the addition of extra base pairs (CGC) into the sequence. The Insertion occurs between the last A and T nucleotide.
5. CGAT → CTAT (Substitution) ----- This is called substitution because Guanine base is replaced by Thymine in the DNA sequence. It is specifically called a transversion substitution because a purine (Guanine) is replaced by a pyrimidine (Thymine). It is called a point mutation because it involves a single base.
6. CCGGTT + TTAGGC = CCGTTA + GTTGGC (Translocation) ----- in this case, CCGGTT and TTAGGC are sequences on different chromosomes. Portions of sequence on the first chromosome (GTT) and second chromosome (TTA) breaks off and gets reattached/exchanged in each other i.e. the first chromosome gets TTA while the second gets GTT. This kind of mutation is called translocation.
Answer:
Francesco Redi's experiment was the first experiment that disproved the theory of sponatenous generation. He explained that life cannot originate from the inorganic or non living matter.
He placed the two maggots in two different jars. The one jar is uncovered and contains meats in which maggots appear. The another jar is covered and no maggots appear on meat. This explains that maggots flies eggs are not formed in the covered jar as eggs are not available for the life. Maggots do not originate from the meat.Life originate from the pre existing life.
Derived characteristics refers to those traits that have changed from ancestral form or function. The derived character, which cause K. monera to be divided into K. archeabacteria and K. eubacteria is that genetically and biochemically the two are different. The archeabacterial possess unusual lipid, which is not find in eubacteria or any other organism. And this give it the capacity to live in extreme environments.
Answer:
Taxonomy may be defined as the branch of biology that mainly deals with the classification, arrangement and nomenclature of the organism. Organism are classified into the different taxa depending on their similarities and differences.
The shared characters may be defined as the characters that are share among the two lineages. As given in the question, the two humps that are present on the bottom end of Pakicetus ankle bone is the shared distinguish character with the other ungulates that are even toed.
