Explanation:
Two important ways by which humans have affected the carbon cycle, especially in recent history, are: 1) the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere during the burning of fossil fuels, and 2) the clearing of trees and other plants (deforestation) that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Answer:
i can only define the terms for you.
Explanation:
chromosome - a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
chromatid - each of the two threadlike strands into which a chromosome divides longitudinally during cell division, each containing a double helix of DNA.
gene - a distinct sequence of nucleotides that forms a part of a chromosome, the order of which determines the order of monomers in a polypeptide or nucleic acid molecule which a cell or virus that may synthesize
Answer:
C. The enzyme with mutation 1 has decreased affinity for pyridoxal phosphate, whereas the enzyme with mutation 2 has lost the ability to bind to the substrates.
Explanation:
A coenzyme is an organic cofactor that binds with an enzyme in order to initiate or aid the function of the enzyme. A coenzyme binds to the active site of the enzyme (where the reaction occurs), thereby triggering its activation by modifying protein structure during the reaction. Some examples of coenzymes include Coenzyme A and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme (it is the active form of vitamin B6) that is required for the function of cystathionase. Moreover, cystathionase is an enzyme that enables cells the synthesis of cysteine from methionine (transsulfuration pathway). The binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the enzyme increases the binding affinity of the enzyme for the substrate, thereby influencing its activity. In this case, it is expected that mutation 1 reduces the binding affinity of the enzyme to the cofactor, and thereby the cofactor is required at a higher concentration to restore normal enzyme activity.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-D
Explanation:
Stem cells are the cells which have the ability to form different types of cells. They differentiate and specializes to perform different functions in the body and thus forms the different cells.
The differentiation and specialization are controlled at the gene level by different patterns of gene expression. The pattern of gene expression is not fully understood during development but research have shown that the gene expression is influenced by the different environmental signals and internal regulators.
Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
