Which of the following is true?(A) Protein-coding genes make up far less of the human genome than noncoding DNA.
(B) Protein-coding genes and noncoding DNA make up about the same amount of the human genome.
(C) Protein-coding genes make up far more of the human genome than noncoding DNA.
(D) Noncoding DNA has not been found in humans.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

(A) Protein-coding genes make up far less of the human genome than noncoding DNA.

Explanation:

The human genome contains both protein-coding and non-coding sequences. However, the non-coding sequences make most of the human genome as they account for as much as 98.5% of the total human genome. The non-coding part of the human genome serves other important functions such as promoter, enhancers, silencers for gene expression.  

An only small part of the human genome serves as protein-coding genes and make exons.

A solution that contains equal numbers of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions would be called _____.

Answers

The solutions, which have both hydrogen and hydroxide ions in equal number are neutral solution.

In a solution, if the hydrogen and the hydroxide ion are in equal number, they will mask each other's effect. So, all over, the effect of the hydrogen ion or hydroxide ion would be absent. So, the solution would indicate a pH of value 7.

Hence, the given blank can be filled with neutral.

it would be called neutral because the hydrogen and hydroxyl ions would cancel each other out, leaving a Ph of 7.

Not all members of a species are the same. Every species exhibit

Answers

Every species exhibits variations based on various genes being activated at various times. An example with humans can be eye color or hair color. What species means is that all members of a species can procreate with healthy, capable of procreating progeny, but anything else is just a variation.

Which regions make up the Sun's interior and surface? Select all of the answers that apply. photosphere corona core radiative zone chromosphere convective zone

Answers

Answer;

-Core

-Radiative zone

-Conventive zone

Explanation;

-There are three main parts to the Sun's interior: the core, the radiative zone, and the convective zone. The core is at the center. It the hottest region, where the nuclear fusion reactions that power the Sun occur.

-The radiative or radiation zone; Its name is derived from the way energy is carried outward through this layer, carried by photons as thermal radiation.

-The third and final region of the solar interior is named the convective (or convection) zone. It is also named after the dominant mode of energy flow in this layer; heat moves upward via roiling convection, much like the bubbling motion in a pot of boiling oatmeal.

Which factors are common to both gradualism and punctuated equilibrium?a. Migration, genetic drift, speciation, and natural selection
b. Allele change and microevolution
c. Slow adaptation, stasis, and expansion

Answers

Migration, genetic drift, speciation, and natural selectio are the factors are common to both gradualism and punctuated equilibrium. Gradualism meaning gradual and suddenly happened, while punctuated equilibrium means taking over time.

Answer:

A. Migration, genetic drift, speciation and natural selection.

Explanation:

Migration, genetic drift, speciation and natural selection factors are common to both .Gradualism and punctuated equilibrium are two ways of the evolution. Gradualism is  selection and variation that happens. Small variations are fit an organism. In punctuated equilibrium, change comes in spurts. There is a period of very little change, and only few huge changes occur, often through mutations in the genes of a few individuals. Mutations are random changes in the DNA. That are not inherited from the previous generation, but passed in next generation. Though mutations are often harmful, the mutations that result in punctuated equilibrium are very helpful to the individuals in their environments.

During which process is mRNA synthesized from a DNA template with the aid of RNA polymerase? A.transcription B.translation C.translocation D.transportation

Answers

Transcription is the process in which mRNA is synthesized from a DNA template with the aid of RNA polymerase. Translation, translocation and transportation are separate processes. 

Answer;

-Transcription;

Explanation;

-Gene expression involves the process of transcription and that of translation.

-Transcription, which takes place in the nucleus of a cell, involves the synthesis of a messenger RNA (mRNA) from a DNA template. The process is catalyzed by the enyzme RNA polymerase.

-The mRNA synthesiszed from transcription then undergoes the process of translation outside the nucleus (cytoplasm) to form proteins, that may be used for various cellular functions such as regulating cellular reactions.

If a doctor wanted to be sure that a patient's urinary system is working properly, what would be the BEST indicators to investigate?

Answers

The best indicators would be if the doctor checked urine and stool samples, as well as the bladder and kidneys, and a blood test. Urine and stool first though.
