Many Japanese people consume a diet rich in seaweed, including the edible red alga Porphyra, which is used for preparing sushi.

Although humans cannot digest the seaweed polysaccharides (porphyran and agarose), certain marine Bacteroidetes do possess the necessary CAZymes. Curiously, Japanese individuals frequently harbor seaweed-digesting Bacteroides plebeius in their gut microbiomes, while individuals from North America do not. Bacteroides plebeius is not a marine bacterium, and its close relatives cannot digest seaweed. What is the mostly likely explanation for how B. plebeius acquired functional porphyranase and agarase genes?

Answer:

Bacteroides plebeius which is present in the gut humans have the same genes to marine bacterium Zobellia galactanivorans.

Explanation:

many researchers findout that bacteroides plebeius acquired functional porphyranase and agarase genes from a marine bacterium called Zobellia galactanivorans. Zobellia galactanivorans is a marine bacterium which has the ability to digest complex polysaccharides such as agarose and porphyran. so due to similar genes, Bacteroides plebeius also digest polysaccharides such as agarose and porphyran present in sea weed.

Which of the following statements about the development of infectious diseases is correct?
zalisa [80]

The period of Convalescence is the time during which the person regains health and fully recovers.

Explanation:

  • Diseases that can spread from one person to other  are called infectious disease.
  • Disease development is divided into Incubation period, Prodromal period, period of illness, Decline period, and period of Convalescence.
  • During incubation period the pathogen enters the host body and starts multiplying itself. But the signs of diseases are unnoticeable.
  • Then comes  the prodromal period, when the pathogen keeps multiplying itself and some signs of disease are observed but they are not obvious
  • After the prodromal period comes the period of illness when the patient exhibits obvious signs of sickness.
  • As the period of illness is over the symptoms of disease start to cease and the the number of pathogen decrease in body.This period is the period of decline.
  • Finally comes the period of Convalescence when the person returns to his pre-disease state and is completely healthy. (except irreversible damage caused by the disease)

Eukaryotic genomes have gene sequences that can code for more than one polypeptide sequence because _____.
ipn [44]

Answer:

The  correct answer would be -A pre-mRNA becomes mRNA by cutting out different introns

Explanation:

During the process of the RNA splicing, pre-mRNA has several specific segments of sequence that are identified by the spliceosome and then removed from the pre-mRNA. Specific parts that are removed are known as introns and the parts that stuck to become mRNA are exons.

Gene sequences in the eukaryotic genome can code for more than one protein due to removing the different introns every time to become mRNA from pre mRNA.
