In this exercise, you will use the cytochrome c oxidase i (coi) gene to investigate relationships among salmon species. (this gene encodes a protein that functions in the mitochondrial electron transport chain.) you will compare the coi gene sequences from your salmon test samples to the standard sequences for each salmon species. in order for the coi gene to be useful for distinguishing among the different salmon species, which three statements must be truea) the coi gene must be conserved enough that the sequences can be aligned for comparison.
b)the coi gene must not contain any insertions or deletions.
c)the coi gene must be present in pacific salmon but not in atlantic salmon.
d)the coi gene must be variable enough that there are at least a few differences between each salmon species.
e)the coi gene must be conserved enough that the same pcr primers work for all the species being tested

Option (a), (d) and (e).

Explanation:

Cytochrome c oxidase I gene is the important and main sub unit of the cytochrome c oxidase gene. These gene is used to study the evolutionary relationship between the organisms.

This exercise has been done to study the relationship among the salmon species. The conserved COI I gene is used for comparison with other species.  The same primer is used for COI I conserved gene. But the COI I gene should show variation also so the differences between the salmon species can be identified.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a), (d) and (e).

when atoms of different types of elements join together, they make molecules called compounds. water consists of compound molecules made up of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. this is why it's called h2o. water will always have 2 times the number of hydrogen atoms as oxygen atoms.

your body is trying to warm itself up. or more precisely, sensors in your skin send messages to your brain to generate heat to your body.
