This would be a recessive disease.

Father is dd
Mother is Dd (has to be because one child has the disease)

Parents cross is dd x Dd which gives rise to Dd (0.5) and dd (0.5). Each time they have a child they have a 50% chance of the child having the disease. In their case, only one of their 3 children is dd. The others though are carriers!

The water molecules labeled a in figure 4. 1 are going to the thylakoids to take part in which process?.
andrew11 [14]

The water molecules labeled A in Figure 4.1 are going to the thylakoids to take part in Light-Dependent Reactions.

The interior membrane structure of the chloroplast is composed of interconnecting disc-like sacs called thylakoids. They are discovered floating in the stroma. Grana are stacks of thylakoids that are arranged in a particular way. The thylakoid membrane contains chlorophyll, a photosynthetic pigment that absorbs light during photosynthesis.

The interior membranes of cyanobacteria and chloroplasts, known as thylakoids, serve as a platform for the photochemical reactions that take place during photosynthesis.

A scientist observes that, when the pH of the environment surrounding an enzyme is changed, the rate the enzyme catalyzes a reac
vredina [299]

Answer:

A- A pH change can cause the enzyme to change its shape

Explanation:

A rise or fall in the pH of the medium from the optimum of pH 7 usually affect  the  enzymes' active sites  of  and therefore the  shape and  the  rate of enzyme activity.

Assuming  the pH is too low, the enzyme medium becomes acidic;Acidosis. The high Hydrogen ions concentration  interacts with the R-groups of the amino acids moiety of the enzymes, this interaction affects the ionization of the  R-groups, disrupting the ionic bonding holding these R-groups in shape.

This results in loss of the 3-Dimensional shape arrangements of the protein molecule  and therefore of the active sites. Since active sites of  enzymes  determines the specificity of the <u>enzymes substrate- complex </u> to give <u>enzyme-product complex,</u> the catalytic activity of the enzymes decreases, <u>the rate of  reaction decreases,and products formation stops, and the reaction also stops.</u>

The same is applicable to extremely high pH=Alkalosis.

However, the effective buffer system of the body prevents this scenarios from happening in real sense in the body. Through mopping by the  haemoglobin, excretion by the kidney, etc

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a. It's a carrier protein doing facillitated diffusion

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion may be defined as the transportation of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration that is down the concentration gradient without input of the energy. Whereas the active transport is transportation of the molecules from the low concentration to the high concentration which is against concentration gradient by the membrane protein.

The glucose transportation process requires membrane protein for the transport and does not require any energy. Therefore, it is carrier protein which is doing the facilitated diffusion.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Independent variable: ALTITUDE

dependent variable: GROWTH OF PLANTS

Confounding variable: STOREYS OF THE BUILDING

Explanation:

In an experiment, the basic components i.e primary variables that an experiment should contain, are the independent and dependent variables.

- The independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this experiment, the ALTITUDE of the plant is the independent variable.

- The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes to the independent variable. It is the variable measured in an experiment. In this case, the dependent variable is the GROWTH OF THE PLANTS.

- The confounding variable is a variable that has an extra influence on the outcome of the experiment. In other words, the confounding variable has an impact on the dependent variable. In this case, the confounding variable is the STOREYS OF THE BUILDING.
