Question
Chapter 4, Problem 3S
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether the flagella are an example of a homologous or analogous trait considering the structure and function of the flagella found on eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
Introduction:
In terms of evolution, the homologous traits are derived traits are similar in structure as they are evolved from and the analogous traits are similar in function. Analogous trait is an example of the convergent evolution and homologous traits are inherited from the common ancestor.

Molecular Biology Question
You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
