The map shows the allele frequency of sickled hemoglobin (HbS) and malaria endemicity in Africa.

Biology
1 answer:
ikadub [295]1 year ago
7 0

When an area is malaria-free, the HbS allele frequency is between 0 and 2.02. Thus, option "A" is correct.

<h3>How, explain your answer briefly?</h3>

In the two maps that show the allele frequency of sickle haemoglobin (HbS) and malaria endemicity in Africa, it can be seen that in the regions with no malarial outbreak or malaria-free areas coincide with the grey to lighter shades of red in the heat map of the allele frequency of HbS. The colour coding in the heat map for the allele frequency tells us that the frequencies range from 0 to 2.02 in the malaria-free areas.

Hence the answer is A)When an area is malaria-free, the HbS allele frequency is between 0 and 2.02.

True or False: <br><br> The first step in glycogen synthesis is the phosphorylation of glucose.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is True

Explanation:

<u>The first step in glycogen synthesis (glycogenesis) is the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate</u>, which is catalyzed by hexokinase. [This step is also the first step in the glycolytic pathway]. Glucose-6-phosphate is then isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by the action of phosphoglucomutase. This glucose-i-phosphate is then converted to glycogen by glycogen synthase.

A(n) ________ is a hard outside covering that is used for protection and prevents the inner body area from drying out.
Artist 52 [7]

The cuticle is the most exterior layer of arthropods' tegument, and its principal function is to protect the body and avoid dehydration. Option C is correct. Cuticle.

<h3>What is the cuticle?</h3>

The cuticle is the most exterior layer of arthropods' tegument. It is secreted by the epidermis and develops right over it.

It is composed of two main layers,

  • epicuticle ⇒ outermost layer
  • procuticle ⇒ inner layer

The cuticle is mainly made of chitin, and its function is to protect the organism's body and avoid dehydration.

Because it avoids dehydration it is believed that arthropods had such an evolutive and adaptative successful in their transition from water to the land.

The cuticle also provides support to the body and a muscle attachment surface.

The correct option is C. Cuticle

A _<u>Cuticle</u>_ is a hard outside covering that is used for protection and prevents the inner body area from drying out.
