Why do organisms make one type of protein for a feature while other organisms make two?

Rasek [7]3 years ago

Answer:

For every gene, there may be several possible versions. Different genes carry instructions for making different proteins. If the gene copies are heterozygous, two types of protein are produced, if the gene copies are h0m0zyg0us, one type of protein is produced.

Answer:

It may mean that the two proteins evolve in slightly different directions, so that one version works better in one set of conditions and the other under different conditions.

Please note that the cost to the organism of making two proteins instead of one is minimal. Basically, it involves adding one coding gene to the tens of thousands of genes that are already there (assuming that the sum of the amounts of the two proteins is about the same as the amount of the original one protein).

Different versions of the same protein may also be made by differential splicing of the mRNA, or by the many mechanisms of post-translational modification.

The twisted ladder shape of DNA
Grace [21]

Answer:

C. Double helix

Explanation:

The twisted ladder shape that DNA has can also be called a double helix.

It is in the shape of a helix, which is similar to a 3D spiral shape.

It is called a double helix because DNA is made up of two DNA helix strands that are intertwined.

So, C is the correct answer.
