31. The term homoplasy is most applicable to which of the following features?

32. Telomerase is an enzyme can solve the problem of replication at the ends of linear chromosomes. How does it work? (A) Repetitive sections of DNA can range from a single nucleotide to hundreds of nucleotides. Three nucleotides of smaller is a microsatellite. (B) It adds 5' cap and 3’ polyA on chromosome that resists degradation by nucleases. (C) It works like regular DNA polymerase (3'-5') except does not need DNA template strand to direct synthesis. Uses intrinsic RNA strand to synthesize GGGTTA sequence. (D) It causes specific double-strand DNA breaks and rejoins the blunt ends on both strands. (E) It adds numerous methylated GC pairs which resist hydrolysis and maintain chromosome integrity.

33. Taxol is an anticancer drug extracted from the bark of the Pacific yew tree. It disrupts microtubule formation by binding to microtubules and accelerating their assembly from tubulin.

(D) Many kinds of ascomycetes and basidiomycetes have lost the ability to reproduce sexually. (E) Conidia are sexual spores produced by mushrooms.
