Codominance is a relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. If the alleles are different, the dominant allele usually will be expressed, while the effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked.
<h2>A) option is correct </h2>
Explanation:
- RNA is a linear polymer of ribonucleotides
- Sugar in RNA is ribose instead of deoxyribose which is present in DNA
- The four nitrogenous bases present in RNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine and uracil whereas that in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine
- RNA molecules carry genetic information from DNA to proteins, cannot transmit from one generation to next generation as a genetic material
- Due to steric hindrance by the 2'-OH group of ribose sugar, RNA unable to form double helix
Amoebas are single-celled organisms, which means that they are composed of just one cell. Each amoeba is a cell capable of performing all living functions by itself. They can reproduce asexually. They are protozoans with no fixed shape. Most have no hard parts and look like blobs of jelly.
Answer:
Uranus
Uranus' axis is tilted, so it rotates from top to bottom.
Answer: The correct answer for the given mechanisms influencing gene pool are the mechanisms of evolutionary change, which are described as follows-
1) Gene Flow
- It is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.
-A zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.
2) Natural Selection
- A mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.
-Competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.
3) Mutation
- Permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.
-The DNA of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.
4) Genetic Drift - It is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.
-A grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.
