The genes in a population give forth the genetic variability across a population (genotypes). In addition, occasional mutations of these genes in a population increase this genetic variability. Hovever, natural selection only favours reproduction of individuals with genes that are favourable in the environment/habitat. Therefore, natural selection has no foresight but is rather pegged on being an ‘opportunistic’ process.
A) yellow, smooth
Just substitute the yellow/green peas for yellow/green leaves
Answer: Correct options B, D and E.
Explanation:
In the cladogram, we can see that in the first branch we have a division, one branch goes to fish and the other goes to a division (a division means a common ancestor)
Then the fish are the most primitive (being directly related to the first ancestor)., E is true.
We also can see that between fish and birds we have 3 separations (the ancestor in common is 3 "generations" behind), and between frog and birds we have two separations (the common ancestor is 2 "generations" behind), so frogs are more closely related to birds than fish.
So D is also true.
We also can see that the only pair that has only one ancestor in common are birds and reptiles, so the ones that are most closely related are birds and reptiles. B is also true,
Skin cells, divide in a continuous manner that makes new skin cells to replace the skin cells we lost. Cells regulate their division by cyclins. Some cells divide faster when it supposed to stop dividing and this will lead to cancer disease.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The process of cell division occurs for many reasons. A single cell is divided into two which in turn they will be divided into four and so on. This corresponds to the process of cell division and cell reproduction. Cell division is an unique characteristics in human beings. Interactions between signaling proteins produces checkpoints in the cell cycle to ensure that cells do not divide at improper times.
A protein named Cyclins plays a major role in the determination and the regulation of the cell division process. The division that occurs in the cell can be regulated by the this protein type. They acts as a switch for controlling the cell division process. They will signal the cells when to divide and when to stop. When any cell continues to divided even after it is signaled to stop they may lead to a disease called cancer. These are different form the normal cells because they will be having their own growth factors that controls their growth and they will lose the normal controls on the cell cycle.
I believe it's the long arm of chromosome 17.
