The human skin is the protective layer of the human body against the external forces like the temperature, sharp objects, microbes, fungi and other related materials that can penetrate and weaken the body however, the integumentary system prevents any harm come to the organism. The dermis is the skin area which has different structures that perform different functions.

A mutation creates a dominant negative allele of a particular gene. The normal allele of the gene encodes a protein that forms a
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

87.5% of the trimers in the cell will be inactive.

Explanation:

A monomer is a single subunit. Look at an easy comparison. If a monomer is a ball. For the protein to be functional, it needs to be a trimer .A trimer = 3 monomers joined / bound together with bonds. Therefore, if a monomer is a ball, we need 3 balls, we attach it together and that is the primer . if one ball becomes missing, that protein won't work .

In chemistry, a trimer is regarded as three molecules or ions of the same substance (that is, same type) which are associated together .

Double negative : Each gene has 2 alleles. So, for a positive protein, both allele needs to be same, let's say + means on. So for a x protein , if it's x+/x+ it means the protein is homozygous and active. If for some mutation, it's x+/x- , it's a heterozygous protein. Double negative means when it is x-/x- and this means the protein has lost is function . It's not functional at all.

The heterozygous cell will form one or more subunits has the mutant structure when the gene is expressed. From the question if there is a mutation in dominant negative allele, it will cause the inactivation of one trimer resulting in 87.5% inactive trimers for a heterozygous individual.

There are 87.5 % percent of the trimers present in the cell which will be inactive for a heterozygous individual, If at least one of the subunits has the mutant structure.

The probability for each individual subunit to be a mutant is 1/2

Gene codes for a protein that forms trimer so the percentage of the trimers present in the heterozygous individual is third power of 1/2 =1/8

1/8=0.125 will be active.

1- 0.125 will be inactive.

=0.875 will be inactive.

0.875 × 100= 87.5%

Therefore 87.5% will be inactive.

yan [13]

Answer:

Providing energy and regulation of blood glucose.

Sparing the use of proteins for energy.

Breakdown of fatty acids and preventing ketosis.

Explanation:

The main function of carbohydrates is to provide energy and regulation of glucose in the blood.  It prevent the use of proteins for production of energy and also promote breakdown of fatty acids and preventing ketosis. Ketosis is a process that occurs when our body doesn't have carbohydrates in sufficient quantity for the production of energy. Carbohydrates are the first biomolecules that are used for energy production.
