In this exercise, you will compare the amino acid sequence from the aphid to the amino acid sequences of the other species to identify how similar they are. As a first step, you will compare the aphid sequence (Acyrthosiphon) to a bacterial sequence (Pantoea).
The sequences below show the first 60 amino acids of one polypeptide, using the one-letter abbreviations for the amino acids. An underscore (_) indicates a gap inserted in a sequence to optimize its alignment with the corresponding sequence in Arabidopsis.

At how many positions are the amino acids the same between the two species?

The hypothesis of continental drift states that earth's continents, which are located on tectonic plates, move relative to each other. which of the following is true of the movement of the tectonic plates? a. tectonic plates only move once every million years. b. they move at a rate of approximately 5 centimeters per year. c. tectonic plates never move, only the continents located on them do. d. their movements are very rapid and occur at random times.

Cultures of the lake of the ozarks water samples were grown on enrichment media for identification. however, these organisms are present to some degree in all samples. an important question from a clinical perspective is whether or not there is a significant increase in the fecal coliform populations that would put people's health at risk. if you were part of the team investigating this outbreak, how would you best enumerate the fecal coliform threat? view available hint(s) cultures of the lake of the ozarks water samples were grown on enrichment media for identification. however, these organisms are present to some degree in all samples. an important question from a clinical perspective is whether or not there is a significant increase in the fecal coliform populations that would put people's health at risk. if you were part of the team investigating this outbreak, how would you best enumerate the fecal coliform threat? direct microscopic counts filtration count culture serial dilution count culture plate count culture

How are the testes and ovaries similar? a. both produce sex cells. b. both connect internal reproductive organs to the exterior. c. both transport sex cells from their site of production. d. both store mature sex cells.
