Textbook Question
Chapter 25.5, Problem 3CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS Ø Given that changes in morphology are often caused by changes in the regulation of gene expression, predict whether noncoding DNA is likely to be affected by natural selection. See Concept 18.3 to review noncoding DNA and regulation of gene expression.

Q2: Would you expect to see more variation in the sequence of DNA bases between two members of the same species (such as humans) or between two individuals of different species (for example, humans and chickens)? Explain your reasoning. Q3: Do different alleles of a gene have the same DNA sequence or different DNA sequences?arrow_forward

- You are studying Hox genes in crane flies (Leptotarsus testaceus). The cranefly genome is sequenced, and in craneflies. Using your understanding of Hox genes, design an experiment testing where the homolog of the EVE gene is expressed in cranefly embryos. you have access to this sequence. You are interested in studying the EVE genearrow_forward. Early in development, most human cells turn off expression of an essential component of telomerase, the enzyme responsible for addition of telomere repeat sequences (5’-TTAGGG) to the ends of chromosomes. Thus, as our cells proliferate their telomeres get shorter and shorter, but are normally not lost over the course of a lifetime. If cells are removed from the body and grown in culture, however they ultimately enter a state of replicative senescence and stop dividing when their telomeres get too short. By contrast, most human tumor cells express active telomerase, allowing them to maintain their telomeres and grow beyond the normal limit imposed by senescence - good for them, bad for us. Anticipating a universal cure for cancer, you set up a company to screen chemical ‘libraries’ for telomerase inhibitors. The company share price takes a dive, however, when a rival group generates a strain of telomerase-knockout mice. These mice breed happily for several generations, but…arrow_forwardExplain the relationship between changes in gene expression and evolutionary changearrow_forward
