When the Bicoid protein is expressed in Drosophila, divisions between cells in the embryo are not yet fully developed. This helps to explain that (B) Bicoid protein diffuses throughout the embryo in a concentration gradient.

Bicoid protein acts as a morphogen. This means it shows its effect when the concentration gradient is high. Also abbreviated as Bcd, the protein helps in establishing the anterior and posterior region of the Drosophila. It also represses the translation of caudal mRNA.

Embryo is the initial stage of a microorganism, right after the fertilization. In vertebrates, this stage does not last much longer because the development of organs begins.

Which of the following is not an effect of complement activation? Select one: Interference with viral replication Increased phag
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Interference with viral replication".

Explanation:

The complement system is an essential part of the immune system that involves the activation of a series of proteins that act as a cascade and result in the development of inflammatory responses that help to fight infections. There are multiple effects of complement activation, however interference with viral replication is not one of them. The molecules that are able to interfere with viral replication are called interferons, and they synthesis and activation are not related with complement activation.

Based on the graph above, how well will the enzyme perform as a catalyst when placed in a pH 7 solution, such as water?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The correct answer is "<span>It will perform less than optimally unless the pH was increased."

This is because the curve on the graph shows pH versus reaction rate. If we follow the x-axis (the bottom one) to a pH of 7, it is at an extremely low reaction rate compared to other points of the graph. If we continue along, we see that the reaction rate increases as the pH increases. Therefore, the enzyme will perform less than optimally unless the pH is increased.

Hope this helps, and hope I'm the brainiest! :)</span>

Based upon the pH scale, a vegetable with a pH of 5.3 would be
kozerog [31]
<span>pH is the measure of acidity/alkalinity of a substance. A pH of 7 is considered is neutral. Less than 7 is the acidic pH, with 1 being most acidic. Thus a vegetable with a pH of 5.3 is slightly acidic. A ph of 4.6-6.9 are called as low acidic foods. Thus, the vegetable is low-acidic.</span>

What is a Punnett Square? How can it be used to analyze possible genetic outcomes for offspring?
postnew [5]
A Punnett Square is a chart in which you cross two parents' offspring to figure out what traits their offspring may have.  It helps give an estimate of the probability of the child having different attributes, such as eye color or hair color through the use of dominant and recessive alleles.
