Answer:

By phosphorylation or by activating cyclin-dependent kinase-mediated signaling pathways

Explanation:

The Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (Cdks) are a family of critical regulatory proteins capable of modulating the progression through the cell cycle. Cdks are in turn regulated by binding to cyclin proteins or by phosphorylation at specific amino acid residues (generally tyrosine and threonine).

Phosphorylation is the most widely studied posttranslational modification and it is known to inhibit (and also activate) protein function, while cyclin-dependent kinases are proteins known to inhibit the activity of Cdks and thereby acting as tumor suppressors by inducing cell death-apoptosis.

What does a red blood cell look like at in 0.65M solution
Ket [755]
It depends on what kind of solution is referred as 0.65 M. If the solution where the red blood cell is present is hypertonic, the red blood cell will shrink. If the solution is hypotonic, the red blood cell will expand. If the solution is isotonic, the red blood cell will not expand or shrink.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

D. partial pressure of oxygen

Explanation:

Partial pressure refers to the force applied by an individual gas per unit area in a mixture of gases which is measured in mm of Hg. The partial pressure determines the movement of the gas molecule in the system.

In the given scenario, the oxygen transport through the blood along with other gases like carbon dioxide and other minute concentration but the gaseous exchange between the lungs and the blood, between the blood and the tissues depends on the partial pressure of the oxygen. The oxygen moves from the higher pressure to lower pressure therefore partial pressure is the determining factor.

Thus, Option-D is correct.

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Option B.

Explanation:

Before the Industrial Revolution, the light color moths were predominant so that they can blend in with the light-colored trees and lichens in their environment. After releasing coal smoke from factories, the trees became darkened, and the light-colored moths become an easy target for predator birds to spot.

Over time, the frequency of the dark moth increased due to they had a higher survival rate in habitats affected by the air pollution and it blends with darker coloration blended with the sooty trees. This is a shift in the population’s genetic variance toward the new, phenotype.

In graph B, light color moth frequency decreases, and after natural selection increases over time and after a decrease in evolution the dark color again decreases.
