PLEASE HELP! HAS TO BE CORRECT DNA sequences can act as "tape measures of evolution." Some highly-conserved regions of the human genome (similar to comparable regions in other species) don't code for proteins. Why?
A) Such regions coded for proteins in genomes of distant human ancestors, but over time they became noncoding; however, conserving their sequence remained unchanged.
B) Such regions play a significant role in gene regulation. That is why they remain conservative under the influence of natural selection.
C) Such regions are the sites of DNA recombination. They should remain conservative to provide an accurate recombination process during cell division.
D) Such regions remain conservative because the mutation rate differs along the genome. In other words, such regions remain conservative accidentally.

In a classic experiment using pea shape, mendel conducted two separate genetic crosses. in the first cross the parent plants were “true breeding” for pea shape; one had round peas ( r )and the other had wrinkled (r). the first cross produced a filial 1 generation of all round peas. in the second cross, mendel bred plants from the filial 1 generation. this cross produced different results. out of approximately 1000 plants, about 75% were round and 25% were wrinkled.
