Next-generation sequencing reveals six new mutations have occurred in the coding regions of genes in an individual diploid fly.

if the coding regions of this fly comprise 100 million nucleotides per haploid genome, what is the mutation rate per nucleotide?

10^{-8} mutations per nucleotide. If there are 100 million nucleotides per haploid genome, there are 200 million nucletides per diploid genome. Six mutations divided by 200 million is 10^{-8}.

The large number of antibodies that can be produced in a single individual is a result of a single B cell: producing multiple un
wariber [46]

The answer is; producing a unique antibody from all other B cells by genomic rearrangement.


An isolated B cell produces monoclonal antibodies (also called Immunoglobulins). Different B cell types produce different types of antibodies (hence the serum of an animal has polyclonal antibodies). Memory B cells are developed when a particular infection is eradicated by the immune system. These B cells proliferate when the infection returns by producing the same antibodies that were effective against the foreign entity.

lesantik [10]

When ten or more pre-synaptic neurons conduct impulses to five or fewer post-synaptic neurons, the conduction pattern is said to be <u>convergent</u>.

A neuron in such a network can take information from numerous other neurons through convergence. Inhibitory interneurons are activated by presynaptic cells, but instead they reduce nearby cells inside the network.

Synaptic divergence refers to the dispersion of synapses from such a single neuron onto several postsynaptic partners as well as partner kinds, while synaptic convergence refers to being affected by having neuronal cell kinds delivering input around on a shared postsynaptic partner.

Multiple presynaptic cells send convergent information to a single postsynaptic neuron.
