Two eukaryotic proteins have one domain in common but are otherwise very different. which of the following processes is most likely to have contributed to this similarity?
a. gene duplication
b. rna splicing
c. exon shuffling
d. random point mutations

The correct answer is option c. "exon shuffling".

Explanation:

Exon shuffling is a molecular mechanism at which two or more exons from different genes are brought together and results in the formation of new genes. If two eukaryotic genes have one domain in common but are otherwise very different it is very likely that exon shuffling contributed to this similarly. Probably, the exon that encodes for the domain that the two proteins have in common was taken from one protein for the formation of the second one.

1: the largest region of the brain is the:

  cerebrum

2. the term "psychology" literally means:

the process or procedure of the science or study of the mind.

3. the area of the brain responsible for respiration, heart rate, and smooth muscle control of our blood vessels is t

medulla oblongata

4. the structure that conducts nerve impulses to and from the brain and serves as a reflex center for some sensory information without input from the brain is the:

spinal cord

5. the three-layered membrane that covers the brain and spinal cord and literally means membrane is called the:

meninges

6. the cord-like (string-like) structures that carry bio-electrical impulses from one part of the body to another are called

nerves

7. a group of nerve cell bodies that are found outside of the spinal cord and brain are referred to as:

ganglions or ganglia (pl.) “literal meaning knot”

8. the term that means spinal cord inflammation is:
