In a population of spiders, there is a protein that is coded in the DNA to make venom. In a particular spider, there was a prote

in variation due to a change in the genetic code. This protein variation caused the spider’s venom to be stronger to kill its prey. This genetic variation was passed down to offspring and was favored due to the amount of time shortened to eat its prey.

Do you think it is possible for scientists to incorporate chloroplasts into the skin cells of humans? What would this mean for h
Alisiya [41]

Similarly to mitochondria on which the animals and fungi rely upon, the chloroplasts are the solar-power plants of the plant cell. With the advancement in the field of genetics and biotechnology, it may be feasible for scientists to incorporate chloroplasts into human skin cells. However, there may be few issues, which the human beings would have to encounter with, these are as follows:  

1. The immune system of the humans may attack the chloroplasts, but maybe they would be safe if they are present within the cell.  

2. As the skin of the humans would be undergoing the process of photosynthesis, then they would have to be in green color, thus, the melanocytes of the skin would have to be engineered in order to generate another pigment.  

3. The humans may get skin cancer and sunburns when they would be out feeding on sunlight, that is, the ultraviolet part of the sunlight would cause the destruction of the living cells.  

4. In order to undergo the reaction of photosynthesis, the humans would require more water than usually required by a normal human being, and this could be a disadvantage in a desert surrounding.  

5. The process would not help to generate much energy for an active species like humans, as the daily energy requirements for a human being would be attained by absorbing around 10000 kJ of energy, that is, around 150 hours in a day of sitting in the Sun, which is impossible.

What are zinc fingers, and why are they frequently encountered in descriptions of genetic regulation in eukaryotes?
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

A zinc finger is also known as zinc-binding repeats or ZnF that are molecular scaffold which is characterized by the coordination of Zn²⁺ ions so it can stabilize the fold.

The zinc fingers consist of several amino acid sequence 2 histidine and 2 cysteine residues at intervals. These residues bind to the zinc atom covalently and form finger-like motifs.

They are a major family of eukaryotic transcription factors. These are identified in a significant regulatory state such as developmental control genes and proto-oncogene by binding to the DNA, RNA, or protein.

This is because the wading birds' wetland habitat was destroyed by the housing developers. Since the wetland was drained, their habitat is no longer available to them for nesting or hunting.
