Answer:

<h2><em><u>Base</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>isolated</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>system</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

<u>Fixed based system:- </u>

A fixed-base building (built directly on the ground) will move with an earthquake’s motion and can sustain extensive damage as a result. 

<u>Base isolated system:-</u>

A base isolation system is a method of seismic protection where the structure (superstructure) is separated from the base (foundation or substructure).

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>A</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>base</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>isolated</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>system</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>much</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>more</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>better</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>in</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>area</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>where</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>there</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>are</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>lot</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>earthquakes</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

2, 3, 4, 1

Explanation:

Inversion of DNA sequences refers to the rearrangement of the sequences where a segment is reversed end to end.

For instance in order for the gene of species to have the sequence STUVWX

The order of evolution will be

  • sequence UVXTSW  will be the first sequence

When XTSW segment is inverted WSTX

  • sequence UVWSTX  will be the result of the inversion.

section UVWS is inverted to  SWVU

  • sequence SWVUTX is formed.

when WVUT undergoes inversion to TUVW

  • It becomes the original arrangement of STUVWX .
