Answer:

Cytochrome C; it provides evidences that there is similarities in the respiratory pathways for producing ATPs by  all living organisms especially mammals.

Explanation:

Cytochrome c is located in the intermembranes of mitochondria, and it functions in the transfer of  of one electron in electron transport chain,(ETC) needed for  generation of proton motive force;  for generation of energy in the synthesis of ATPs by ATPase synthase  during chemiosmosis. Its allows oxdation-reduction by the switching of its iron ii to iron iii. during electron transports.However its iron atoms does not undergo oxidation with  oxygen. This feature makes it stable and  an ideal carrier of electrons.

Its amino acid sequences is very similar in all living organisms especially  between mammals(e.g man and chimpanzees)with little variation in few amino acid residues due to mutation.This similarity in its amino acids sequences in all  living  organism together with small molecular size makes it ideal  molecular evidence  for studying comparative molecular evidence of  evolution.

This is because it can be used  to trace  the pathways of respiration to synthesize energy, and therefore to conclude that  most  organisms share common ancestry, since a very similar protein sequence in  a structure(Cytochrome c) participated in unique ETC mechanisms  in all, needed for energy synthesis .

ddd [48]

Answer:

All

Explanation:

You would need carbon dioxide to be able to sustain life forms such as plants, warm enough temperatures to allow the development of animals, (because they cannot be frozen), they would, of course, need oxygen to allow anyone to breathe, and finally liquid water to sustain healthy life, because we must hydrate that is necessary for survival.

Explain why an mRNA transcribed from the template strand of the SIRT3 gene in normal stomach ( NS ) cells is translated to produ
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Explanation:

The double-stranded DNA molecule has the  potential to store genetic information in either strand, although in  most organisms <u>only one strand is used to encode any particular gene</u>.  

The template strand is the non-coding strand. The coding strand of DNA is the non-template (mRNA-like) strand (see attachment).

Thus, genetic  information is expressed by transcription of the non-coding (template) strand  of DNA, <u>which produces an mRNA molecule that has the same sequence  as the coding strand of DNA</u>. Therefore, if a mRNA is transcribed from the non-template strand, the genetic information will not be contained in that strand and it would not produce a correct protein.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Option D is incorrect, as increased photosynthesis would increase oxygen supply present, not carbon dioxide supply.

Option C is incorrect, as increased decomposition would increase carbon dioxide released and oxygen present is reduced, not increased.

Option A is unlikely as if this were the case, increased oxygen levels would enable bluegill fish to survive as well.
