A molecule that can be used as a molecular clock has a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years. How many years
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20 million years

Explanation:

If we have a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years, then the total of eight mutation between the two different species would be 20 million years. This is because both species will have 4 mutations in those 20 million years, so combined, both by 4, will have 8 mutations between them. So few mutations on so much time will result in two species that are very similar to each other even after 20 million years of evolution, even making them hardly distinguishable, especially if it comes to defining fossil records from them both. A nice example of this are the members of the felidae (cat) family, which are all very closely related, and are almost identical, thus making it extremely hard to distinguish two species of the same or similar size by their fossils.

The Kuiper belt is home to three officially recognized dwarf planets: Pluto<span>, </span>Haumea<span>, and Makemake. Some of the Solar System's moons, such as Neptune's Triton and </span>Saturn<span>'s Phoebe, are also thought to have originated in the region.

So the answer is Saturn

Thats what NASA will tell you, but they think the world is round so be careful when they give you "facts"</span>

Which of these is a way to increase the availability of freshwater
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Options -

A-avoid water pollution.

B-build thermal power plants.

C-add water features to gardens.

D-avoid drip irrigation systems

Solution -

The largest source of freshwater on planet earth is underground water. The water beneath the surface of earth is very limited. The total fresh water reserve on earth is 3% of the total water on earth. Pollution due to discharge of waste water into the rivers and oceans has caused the degradation of not only surface water but also ground water.  

Thus, option A is correct

Drip irrigation is a means to prevent wastage of water during irrigation. Thus, avoiding it will cause further loss of fresh water.  

Addition of water feature will increase usage of water, thus it is also incorrect

Building thermal plant will also cause water pollution and wastage. Hence, option  B is also incorrect

Explain Mendel's law of independent assortment and how the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio among the F2 of a dihybrid cross provides ev
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment state that two different genes assort independently in gamete formation.

To reach this conclusion, one has to do a dihybrid cross. This means that two genes responsible for different traits need to be analyzed at the same time.

1) Starting with a <u>parental generation of a cross between two pure lines</u> (homozygous for both genes) <u>with different traits</u>, a plant with yellow and round seeds (YYRR) and another with green and wrinkled seeds (yyrr). <u>The F1 will be phenotypically homogeneous (</u>yellow and round)<u>, and genotypically heterozygous (</u><u>YyRr</u><u>)</u>.

2) If the individuals from the F1 are crossed with one another,  we have to do a Punnett Square to determine the phenotypic ratio of the F2.

  • If the genes assort independently, the F1 individuals will produce their different gametes with the same probability. Each possible gamete will appear in a 1/4 proportion: YR, Yr, yR, yr.
  • The 9:3:3:1 ratio is a result of analyzing the possible phenotypes that result from the dihybrid cross.

See the attached image for an illustration of the crosses in each generation and the Punnett Square.
