Assume that every time you copy DNA, whether it is bacterial DNA or human DNA, you have the same rate of mutation. If that is the case, explain why bacteria mutate to adapt to their environment much faster than humans.
Homework Answers
Because the human DNA OF sperm and ovum have to be divided one and then fuses to form a newborn.
It take more time to reproduce but in bacteria , their reproduction rate is very high that means if any bacteria can get a mutation it will be transfer to next progeny and from where it will be easily transferred to next progeny.but in human it is very less because reproduction time is very long.

You are a scientist studying DNA replication. You have the ability to introduce temperature-sensitive mutations into the bacteria that you are studying (temperature-sensitive mutations work normally at one temperature, but when you raise the temperature a little, the mutation exerts its effect. This allows you to grow colonies with mutations that would otherwise be lethal. The fact that these mutations are temperature sensitive has nothing to do with the problem, other than to make it accurate to how these would...

Why is it frequently more difficult to treat fungal infections in humans than it is to treat bacterial infections? Select one: a. The cells found in fungi and humans are more similar than cells of bacteria and humans. b. Fungi undergo evolution at a much faster rate than bacteria do. c. Fungi normally grow in and on humans, and treating fungal infections would cause death of the human. d. Humans have not developed medications capable of targeting fungi.

a. You cut a gene out of the DNA of a eukaryotic cell and insert it into the DNA of a bacterial cell. Much to your dismay you find that the protein product you want is not produced by the bacteria but instead a much larger disorganized protein is produced. Explain what is going on. b. Your lab mate claims to have found a mutation in the serine tRNA synthetase that causes serine amino acids to be linked to a...

a) You cut a gene out of the DNA of a eukaryotic cell and insert it into the DNA of a bacterial cell. You find that the bacteria do not produce the protein you wanted but instead, a much larger disorganized protein is produced. Explain what happened. b) Your teammate claims to have found a mutation in the serine tRNA synthetase that causes serine amino acids to be linked to a tRNA with a UAA anti-codon. Is this possible? If so,...

2. (6 pts) There are many different types of phages as they can RNA or DNA, and may be single stranded or double straned A) (3 pts) You isolate an unknown phage and fine it to have 20% A, 32% T, 25% G, and 33% C. What does this tell you regarding the classification of this phage? Why? B) (3 pts) This phage infects bacteria by integrating its DNA into the bacterial chromosome. The rate of success of this...

DNA evidence from an early human skeleton in Britain, shows that early inhabitants of were blue eyed and had dark brown skin. While residents of the UK still have high rates of blue eyes (about 48%). At the same time unlike the early humans in the UK the rate of dark skin is much lower. Describe the steps of natural selection that led to the change from brown skin blues, to a majority blues eye light skin in humans in...

t takes about the same amount of time for the DNA in eukaryotic chromosomes to be replicated in vivo as it does for replication of DNA in E. coli. Why is his statement true? Answers: Eukaryotes have multiple origins of replication: E. coli has one unique origin. A. Eukaryotic replication occurs at a faster rate, enabling replication of the larger chromosomes in about the same amount of time. B. The replication of DNA in eukaryotes is faster due to a...

CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWER Why did Natural selection ultimately favor DNA over RNA as the primary information molecule of life on Earth? DNA can store more information than RNA. DNA can replicate faster than RNA. DNA is more nutritious than RNA. ODNA is more stable and has a lower mutation rate than RNA. DNA is requires less energy to maintain and reproduce than RNA. Question 6 CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWER A major difference between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes is that eukaryotic...

You have isolated a DNA fragment containing a human gene involved in lung cancer and are working inserting it into a standard plasmid vector used in molecular cloning which has a multiple cloning site in the lacZ gene. After cutting the DNA fragment and the vector with the same restriction enzyme and ligating the cut DNA, you transform bacteria with hopefully the recombinant vector. How do you expect to identify bacteria with the recombinant vector? A. Bacteria with the recombinant...

Question 6 1 pts In light of the previous question, how can we explain the fact that the Hawaiian bobtail squid has clearly evolved to precisely control the association with its bacterial symbiont, whereas the bacterium shows no signs of adapting to the same symbiosis?
