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.

Sever21 [200]

When a fish swims from salt water into fresh water its cells react by losing water and shrinking.​ The correct option is D.

<h3>What is fresh water?</h3>

Glaciers, lakes, reservoirs, ponds, rivers, streams, wetlands, and even groundwater contain fresh water.

These freshwater habitats cover less than 1% of the world's total surface area but are home to 10% of all known animals and up to 40% of all known fish species.

When a fish swims from salt water into fresh water its cells react by losing water and shrinking due to osmosis.​

Thus, the correct option is D.
