Human genes often occupy a larger part of the chromosome compared to the homologous gene in yeast, yet the number of amino acids in more homologous human and yeast proteins are not very different. What structure explains this difference

Where do homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material through crossing over?               a.  chlorophyll    b.  centrosomes    c.  centromeres    d.  chiasma

Which of the following occurs most often in a population when genetic variation and overproduction are present? some organisms have a lower reproductive success than others. some organisms have a higher reproductive success than others. some organisms have no reproductive success. some organisms do not have genetic variation.

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
