Suppose that part of an amino acid sequence of a protein changed from tyrosine-proline-glycine-alanine to tyrosine-histidine-glycine-alanine. This change was most likely caused by a point mutation called a <u>substitution</u>.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Any protein is synthesized by joining a number of amino acids together. This amino acid is placed based on the sequences of the DNA , for every 3 sequence there is an amino acid that is synthesized and therefore it is called as a triplet codon, since there may be many sequence for a single amino acid we call it as degenerate codon.
Answer:
The correct answer is option - 1. If passage through the placenta is adversely affected by fetal disease. and 4. If rapid drug effects are required.
Explanation:
Normally the drug that is provided and administrated to the fetal is through the placenta of the mother. The direct delivery of medicine can be dangerous. However, with the advancement of the medical technology direct fetal drug administration is possible and it assists in the rapid uptake of the drug by the fetus.
If the fetus requires a rapid drug effect it can be provided by direct drug delivery. Also when the placental is not working properly and affected by the disease it is recommended to provide the fetus with the drug with the help of direct delivery.
Thus, the correct answer is : 1. If passage through the placenta is adversely affected by fetal disease. and 4. If rapid drug effects are required.
Answer:
A chemical reaction is the process in which atoms present in the starting substances rearrange to give new chemical combinations present in the substances formed by the reaction. These starting substances of a chemical reaction are called the reactants, and the new substances that result are called the products.
Answer:
The correct answer: C) allows the behavior of microtubules called dynamic instability.
Explanation:
Microtubules are structures that are part of the cytoskeleton and help provide structure and shape to eukaryotic cells, besides assisting in the transport of organelles and vesicles.
Microtubules are formed by the polymerization of a dimer of two tubulins.
Microtubules have the particularity of being able to easily assemble and disassemble, which enlarges and shrinks the microtubule respectively. This property of the microtubules is important to their functions and is called dynamic instability.
In order to achieve dynamic instability, tubulin dimers can bind two molecules of GTP - for polymerization to happen, one of the GTP molecules is hydrolyzed to catalyze the reaction, thus becoming GDP. In the same matter, the energy generated from the depolymerization with turn the GDP into GTP.
