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.

During meiosis I, how could you have arranged the chromosomes in a different way? How do the differences affect the end result o
krek1111 [17]

Explanation:

Meiosis is the formation of reproductive cells, like the egg in the fallopian tube; if not fertilized by sperm, it is expelled by the menstrual cycle.

Some conditions during fertilization can be disrupted by an egg attaching to the fallopian tube instead of the uterus causing an ectopic pregnancy. Arranging chromosomes in a different way causes congenital defects like color blindness, crohn's disease down's syndrome, etc.
