Assume that a mutation occurs in the gene responsible for the production of hexosaminidase a, such that only about 50% of the en

zyme activity is found in the heterozygote compared with a homozygous normal individual. if heterozygotes are phenotypically normal, we would say that the mutant allele is recessive to its normal allele.

This statement is true.

In the case of autosomal dominant disease, the person is either homozygous (which is very rare) or heterozygous. On the molecular level, either the mutation produced a new deleterious protein for the organism, or the mutation affected an existing protein in the physiological state and that a 50% activity is not enough to compensate for the needs. of the body.

In case of autosomal recessive disease, the sick person is always homozygous. If the two loci each have a different mutant allele, it is called a "composite heterozygote". People with autosomal recessive inheritance disorder have "mandatory heterozygote" parents.

Water helps moderate the climate around large bodies of water. As a result, the temperatures in these areas are milder than inla
Alina [70]
I just answered this question from a different person but I like helping with science. This is from the water's breeze or air currents. This makes the climate mild while the inland is more extreme because it does not have the breeze. Hopefully this helps :D

4. There are a variety of receptors and second messenger systems in cells that in many cases exhibit cross-talk with each other
frutty [35]

Answer:

These 3 receptors are different from each other. They do differ from each other by their location and function.

1. Testosterone receptor :  It is an Androgenic receptor

2. Ferrotransferrin receptor :  It acts as an element-binding protein which is iron responsive.

3. Fibroblast growth factor :  It acts as a growth factor.

Explanation:

1. Testosterone :

Location- Xq 11-12 in the X chromosome.

Function-  

  1. maintains male skeletal integrity by osteoblast and osteocytes.
  2. maintains female sexual, somatic and behavior.
  3. develops male sexual characters.

2. Ferrotransferrin :

Location- chromosome 3q21

Function-

  1. intakes iron in the cell.
  2. maintains the cellular iron equilibrium.
  3. post-transcriptional modification.  

3. Fibroblast (growth) :

Location- chromosome 4p16.3

Function-

  1. helps in bone development.
  2. helps in bone growth maintenance by ossification.
