1.   The main advantage of keeping some DNA in the mitochondria is that it helps in creation of some mitochondrial proteins. Other advantages are as follows:

2. It gives an advantage to the mitochondria to function as individual cellular machinery.

  • The gene expression begins with the transcription of genetic material in the form of DNA into RNA the RNA is converted into proteins by the process of translation.
  • These models are useful in understanding each stage in the mitosis process the mitosis is an equational division because it allows the transfer of equal number of chromosomes to the progeny as that of parents.

1. Mitochondrial DNA is the small circular chromosome present inside the cell organelle called mitochondria used for energy production. This type of DNA passes from the mother to the offspring. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has several advantages over nuclear DNA (nDNA):

for species identification purposes

including a higher copy number

a lack of sequence ambiguities from heterozygous genotypes

a faster rate of mutation

Thus, the advantages of keeping some DNA needed by mitochondria in the cell’s nucleus and some in the mitochondria itself are given above.

2. The process of gene expression starts with the transcription of the genetic information in the DNA into genetic codes in the form of messenger RNA.

The messenger RNA then undergoes some processing such as modification of tails and removal of non-coding sequence before the genetic codes are translated to their respective amino acids in a process known as translation.

The amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds and the resulting primary protein structure is folded in specific ways depending on their functions.

3a. Disadvantages Mitosis

Some single cell organisms and some plants do not reproduce sexually through meiosis.  Rather, they use mitosis only to make exact copies of their cells.  The major disadvantage of this approach is that all of the organisms in a population or all of the plants in an area will have the exact same DNA.  If a new disease comes along every single organism or plant will be wiped out because if one organism or plant is unable to fight the disease that means none can fight the disease.  

Mitosis also does not produce any variation.  So, a plant that reproduces through mitosis won't have the chance to produce offspring that might be better than the parent.

3b. Benefits of Meiosis

Meiosis continually reshuffles the genes resulting in a great variety of offspring.  Without meiosis we would all look exactly alike. Meiosis allows each offspring to be different, and so potentially better, than the parent.  If a disease comes along, there is a good chance that some of the population won't get sick or die because everyone's DNA isn't exactly alike.

An organism cannot reproduce all by itself, but must find another organism to reproduce.  This takes more time and energy than simply being able to created a clone through mitosis.

Which two kinds of information can scientists gather using radar?
makkiz [27]

The correct answers are C. Amount of rainfall, and D. Wind speed.

Explanation

Radars are instruments that were created by humans to detect objects, people, places, among others, through signals. Radars are devices used in different fields such as war, aviation, climatology, geography, among others. One of the best known is the Doppler radar, which is a climatological tool that is used to detect the intensity, size, quantity, and direction of rainfall. Likewise, rainfall is influenced by the direction and speed of the wind, data that can also be obtained using this tool. One of the purposes for which this object was created was the early detection of natural phenomena related to rains, and winds such as hurricanes, electric storms, hail, among others. Therefore, the two objects that scientists can obtain with a radar are C. Amount of rainfall, and D. Wind speed.

Did the Florida Panther become endangered because of natural selection, genetic drift, or gene flow?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.

Cool air over the pole will
kondaur [170]
Cool air over any pole will either cause a voluntary crash on the floor/ collapse, but it all depends on the strength of its placement in the ground. A weak placement could easily make it collapse, or it could stay still (with perhaps a flag waving in the direction of the wind, on top) of kept firmly onto the ground.
