Molecular anthropology Question 1 options: uses genetic analysis of a DNA sequence to assess evolutionary links. is the specialty of the most important member of an archaeological excavation project. studies early hominins through fossil remains. uses microscopic phytolithic analysis to study molecular evolution. uses archaeological survey techniques to gather its data.

The correct answer is ''uses genetic analysis of a DNA sequence to assess evolutionary links.''

Explanation:

Molecular anthropology is a relatively recent branch, it refers to the study of biological phenomena (genetic study) at molecular levels, that is, biochemical, it allows us to understand and expand our knowledge about the evolution of the species and the complex phenomena of microevolution . It is closely related to other fields of anthropological study, among which we can mention primatology and genetics.Through molecular anthropology we are more aware of kinship, therefore, we can know human evolution over the centuries .

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
