Answer:
The correct options are B "The unusual F1 female is heterozygous for a reciprocal balanced translocation involving the chromosome with the apricot, bristle and clipped loci" and D "Independent assortment of non-compatible chromosome structures (i.e., translocated and normal chromosomes segregating together) in the F1 female led to the 90 eggs that aborted development"
Explanation:
The unexpected results obtained earlier can be attributed to the two factors listed above. At the time when meisois takes place, there is the process of independent assortment which leads to formation of zygotes. Due to the event of translocation, the eggs produced lacked some critical development genes.
Answer:
Mass extinctions, Wegenerian cycles, and the emergence of new life forms
Explanation:
Answer/Explanation:
Types of reproductive isolation include: temporal, ecological, mechanical, and behavioural.
A snail with a flat disc-like shell will not be able to mate with a snail having a conical shell - this is an example of mechanical isolation, where the animals are physically unable to mate due to incompatible body shapes and sizes.
The reproductive organs of male bush babies do not match with the reproductive organs of females of other bush baby species. - this is another example of mechanical isolation, as the sexual organs will physically not allow reproduction between these species
The mating call of a cricket is not recognized by a cricket of other species - this is an example of behavioural isolation, which results from incompatible mating rituals. I.e. the animals do not respond to each others mating behaviours
The signals sent by a male firefly are not recognized by the female firefly of other species. - this is also an example of behavioural isolation.
Temporal isolation is where species cannot interact because they do not have the same mating seasons or are not active at the same type of day. ?Ecological isolation occurs when two species do not come into physical contact to one another because they access different areas of the habitat. E.g. mating zones, food sources or nesting sites.
Degeneracy
Degeneracy simply means that most of the amino acids produced during protein synthesis from DNA is coded by more than one codon. A codon is a sequence of 3 <span>nucleotides that codes for a specific amino acid.
Because more than 1 codon can produce the same amino acid, the chances of having the synthesis of proteins affected by mutations (i.e. point mutations) is decreased. For example, if the codon with the nucleotide series GAA, which codes for the amino acid glutamate, becomes the codon GAG, the codon will still produce glutamate because the code is degenerate. </span>
Answer: Option C.
Both
Explanation:
Streptomycin is an antibiotics produced from bacteria and fungi and it is used to treat bacteria infections (prokaryotic ) such as tuberculosis, mycobacterium infection e.t.c.
It's inhibit protein function in prokaryotes because it's affects the function and performance of 70 s RIBOSOMES which is an organelles for protein production.
Streptomycin does not affect eukaryotes because it does not bind to the RIBOSOMES of eukaryotic cells which in turn does not affect protein production.
