Answer:
Medulla Oblongata
OR
Thalamus

Explanation :
The medulla oblongata: Contains centers for the control of vital processes such as heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, and swallowing.

So it could be either.

The thalamus: is a sensory relay in visual, auditory, somatosensory, and gustatory systems.

They both are not directly involved because the medulla oblongata is not anything to do with the brain and the thalamus is to do with the brain but another part of the brain. The thalamus sends information that can be stored in the memory, so it is not direct involvement.

Side note:
I encourage you to take both possibilities into account.
Hope this helps!

Cell biologists studying the mobility of plasma membrane proteins fused mouse and human cells together, creating a heterokaryon.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: Fluorescence microscopy

Explanation:

A protein is substance that is the essential constituent of living cells because it forms part of its structure. They are also found in plasma membrane, where they assist substances to cross the membrane. Proteins can be:

Integral: permanently attached within the plasma membrane.
Transmembrane: it spans the entirety of the cell membrane.
Peripheral: are only temporarily associated to the membrane.

Some integral proteins can act as cellular receptors. Other proteins are responsible for cell adhesion (binding of a cell to another cell or to a surface). On the outside of the cell membranes, attached to other proteins, are the carbohydrate chains that act as labels identifying the type of cell.

A heterokaryon is a multinucleate cell and in this experiment the scientists fuse a human cell and a mouse cell, each of them will have their own proteins. At first, the human and mouse proteins where found in separated halves of this heterokaryon. But after a while, those proteins where mixed and could no longer be identified.

A fluorescent chemical called a fluorophore is able to be absorb light of specific wavelengths and then emit light of longer wavelengths. The proteins can be modified and marked with different colored fluorophores to detect them, even if they are mixed in the heterokaryon. Then, they can be seen with a Fluorescence microscopy, to identify them through different colors.

If Patricia and Les have another child, what is the probability that they will have a daughter that is affected with galactosemi

Ivahew [28]

The questions lacks the pedigree chart. The chart has been attached below.

Answer:

1/8.

Explanation:

The trait follows the autosomal recessive inheritance because the trait is seen only in the homozygous recessive condition only.

Patricia and Les has both the genotype Gg as clear from the pedigree chart. The cross between the patricia and les will give the genotype GG, Gg , Gg, gg. The probability of the affected child is 1/4 and the probability of a girl is 1/2.

The girl with affected galactosemia 1/4 × 1/2 = 1/8.

Thus, the answer is 1/8.
