Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC), also known as phenylthiourea (PTU), has the unusual property that it either tastes very bitter or is

virtually tasteless, depending on the genetic makeup
of the taster. There is a single gene which codes for a protein found in our tongues. PTC will bind with the protein if it present and a person will taste it. If the protein is not present,
PTC will not bind and a person cannot taste it. The ability to taste PTC is often treated as a dominant genetic trait. The dominant allele, T, causes a person to be able to taste PTC, and the recessive allele is represented as t. Assume that a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and 16 individuals out of 100 are unable to taste PTC.
What are the allele
frequencies of T and t in this population?

A. The allele frequency of T is 0.80, and the allele frequency of t is 0.20
B. The allele frequency of T is 0.84, and the allele frequency of tis 0.16.
C. The allele frequency of T is 0.00, and the allele frequency of t is 0.40
D. The allele frequency of T is 0.50, and the allele frequency of t is 0.50.

Similarities between mitosis and meiosis (as many as possible, I really need help)
vesna_86 [32]
Meiosis and mitosis are both preceded by one round of DNA replication; however, meiosis includes two nuclear divisions. The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are haploid and genetically distinct. The daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid and identical to the parent cell. 
so the similarities are: 
-ways for cells to divide 
-same number of chromosome as the original cell 
-both have the basic 5 phases 
-both processes go through chromosome replication 
-Meiosis II is similar to Mitosis 
I hope this is helpful :)))

You are trying to match DNA found at a crime scene with two possible suspects. Why would it be a better use of your time and res
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: A double restriction digest

Explanation: A double restriction digest is a process were two restriction enzymes are used to digest DNA in a single reaction.in double restriction digest you will observe two bands,while in single restriction digest you will observe just one band. In double restriction digest no

Self - ligating plasmid because it create mismatch ends. It also aids in directional in section while single disgestion you have to screen your clones to be sure to get your plasmid with correct insert orientation.

All the following statements about destruction of cyclins are true EXCEPT: ubiquitin targets Cdks. destruction is carried out by
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

ubiquitin targets CDKs

Explanation:

Cyclins are named such because they undergo a constant cycle of synthesis and degradation during cell division. When cyclins are synthesized, they act as an activating protein and bind to Cdks forming a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then acts as a signal to the cell to pass to the next cell cycle phase.

Cyclins drive the events of the cell cycle by partnering with a family of enzymes called the cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). A lone Cdk is inactive, but the binding of a cyclin activates it, making it a functional enzyme and allowing it to modify target proteins.
