Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic disorder linked to mutations in the genes that encode the components of type 1 collagen. The disorder is primarily characterized by individuals having bones that fracture easily. However, it also includes other features, such as blue sclera, a condition in which the whites of the eye (the sclera) are blue, and early-onset hearing loss. These characteristics of OI indicate that the genes involved exhibit

Which of the following statements most accurately describes convergent evolution? the process in which two similar species evolve separately from each other and share similar characteristics the process in which a single species evolves into two or more new species the process in which two entirely different species evolve in response to each other the process in which two different species evolve separately from each other but still share similar characteristics

Which phase of the cell cycle ensures that identical copies of the dna are made for daughter cells?
