Sometimes animals have traits that don’t seem to make sense, like the long tail feathers of a peacock. Suggest a reason for trai

ts that don’t help an animal survive. Hint: those features might help them do other things.

Such traits listed may help them reproduce. For example, female peacocks tend to breed with males with certain types of tail feathers. While the feather themselves don’t guarantee survival, they certainly increase the chances of their genes being passed down. This can also be seen in humans. Certain characteristics in humans can be considered attractive. While these traits don’t necessarily increase the chances of survival, they do increase the chances of finding a mate and eventually having kids. This results in the dominant traits getting passed down.

Which of the following statements about the organization of the purine synthetic enzymes are true? The process involves multifun
Svet_ta [14]

Answer: All of the statements are true.

Explanation:

Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleotides and in particular as ribotides, that is, bases attached to ribose 5-phosphate. Adenine and guanine are both derived from the nucleotide inosine monophosphate (IMP), which is the first compound in the pathway to have a completely formed purine ring system.

Purine nucleotides can be synthesized in two distinct pathways. First, purines are synthesized de novo, starting with simple starting materials such as amino acids and bicarbonate. the purine bases are assembled already attached to the ribose ring. Alternatively, purine bases, released by the hydrolytic degradation of nucleic acids and nucleotides, can be salvaged and recycled. Purine salvage pathways are mostly noted for the energy that they save and the remarkable effects of their absence.

All statements are correct because the organization of purine synthetic enzymes involves multifunctional enzymes, reversible enzyme formations, through out the sequence there is maintenance of high local concentration and the ten steps requires only six enzymes.

The rate of primary productivity is equal to the rate of secondary productivity.<br> ФωФ<br><br> T\F
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The primary productivity is higher than the secondary productivity, or any other productivity for that matter. The primary productivity comes from the producers, and it basically represents the total biomass of the producers. The producers outnumber and outweigh all other organisms by far, so they produce significantly much more biomass than any other type of organisms, thus being rated on the top for productivity.

The plasma membrane of the sea urchin egg ______. A. is outside of the fertilization membrane B. releases calcium, which initiat
Butoxors [25]

The plasma membrane of the sea urchin egg has receptor molecules that are specific for binding acrosomal proteins .

<h3>What is plasma membrane ?</h3>

Plasma membrane is the outermost covering of the body which selectively permits the entry and exit of different type of materials .

Thus ,it is also called as selectively permeable membrane.it also separates the inner and outer environment of the cell .

It also helps in the diffusion process .
