Orlov [11]

Question: Which phrase defines a law?

A. a possible explanation or answer to a scientific question that is based on prior knowledge or research and is testable

B.  A statement of fact that is generally accepted to be true and universal because it has always been observed to be true.

C. a hypothesis or group of related hypotheses that can be accepted as true based on repeated experimentation with similar results

Answer:

Correct answer: B). A statement of fact that is generally accepted to be true and universal because it has always been observed to be true.

Explanation:

A scientific law may be defined as the something that appears to be true and is universally applicable. Scientific laws do not explain why the observed events happen, but it only states that the event occurs in the same way over and over. Example of scientific law is a law of gravity. Gravity is always there and it always works in the same manner. Other examples include newton's law of motion, which states how the things move.

Luda [366]
<h2>Maternal effect</h2>

Explanation:

In maternal effect the phenotype of the progeny is decided by the genotype of the mother

  • The female partner is one step ahead to her male partner
  • The ovum transcribes some of its nuclear genes prior to fertilization and these genes are responsible for the development of embryo that is why these genes are called maternal effect genes
  • This effect is observed in Drosophila

In the given question both male and female have brown eyes with Nn genotype,phenotype of the offspring will be decided by the genotype of mother(Nn) hence despite of having recessive genotype(nn) all the offsprings will show brown eyes

In E. coli protein synthesis, the initiation complex contains
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

The process of translation in prokaryotes is complex process and proceeds in three steps: initiation, elongation and termination.

1. Ribosomal subunits: 50S (5S and 23S subunit) and 30S (16S and proteins).

2. Initiation factors: IF1, IF-2 and IF-3 which help in the formation of assembly.

3 GTP: guanosine triphosphate as a source of energy.

4. Charged tRNA: with N-formylmethionine is the first amino acid.

5. mRNA: the RNA to be translated.

Since the option contains both 50S and 16S components of ribosome thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
