ch4aika [34]3 years ago

The correct answer is d: a target cell's response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways.
The response of a cell to a hormone depends on the cell’s receptor and a signal transduction. When a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane, a second messenger is activated in the cytoplasm. The second messenger has a role of triggering signal transduction leading to the cellular response. Lots of different signal transduction processes (for example, different intracellular proteins) are used to coordinate the behaviour of target cells.

In pea plants, long stems are dominant to short stems, purple flowers are dominant to white, and round peas are dominant to wrin
meriva

Assuming the genes are not linked nor interacting with each other, the expected number of long stemmed plants with purple flowers, producing wrinkled peas, L-P-rr, is 288.

<h3>Available data</h3>

  • long stems are dominant to short stems
  • purple flowers are dominant to white,
  • round peas are dominant to wrinkled

  • Each trait is determined by a single, different gene.

  • A heter0zyg0us plant is self-crossed
  • F1) 2,048 descendants

Let us name te alleles as follows

  • L ⇒ Long stem
  • l ⇒ Short stem
  • P ⇒ Purple flowers
  • p ⇒ white flowers
  • R ⇒ Round peas
  • r ⇒ wrinkled peas

Cross) heter0zyg0us plant is self-crossed

Parental) LlPpRr

Gametes) LPR, LPr, LpR, Lpr, lPR, lPr, lpR, lpr

Assuming that these genes are not linked nor interacting with each other, to make the calcs easier we will make crosses considering each gene separately.

  • Stems

Parental) Ll  x  Ll

F1) 1/4 LL, 2/4 Ll, 1/4 ll

     <u>3/4 long stem,</u> 1/4 short stem

  • Flower color

Parental) Pp  x  Pp

F1) 1/4 PP, 2/4 Pp, 1/4 pp

     <u>3/4 purple flowers</u>, 1/4 white flowers

  • Peas

Parental) Rr  x  Rr

F1) 1/4 RR, 2/4 Rr, 1/4 rr

     3/4 round peas, <u>1/4 wrinkled peas</u>

Now, we will get the proportion of individuals with long stems, purple flowers, producing wrinkled peas, L-P-rr

<u><em>Note</em></u><em>: The symbol - is representing either a dominant or a recessive allele.</em>

From the crosses, we know that

  • 3/4 are long stemmed,
  • 3/4 have purple flowers, and
  • 1/4 have wrinkled peas.

To get the proportion of individuals expressing all these traits together, we just need to multiply these values.

3/4 L- x 3/4 P- x 1/4 rr =<u> 9/64 L-P-rr</u>

Knowing that  the total number of plants is 2,048 and that there are 64 possible gametes combinations from this cross, we will use the proportion 9/64 to get the number of plants with these traits.

64 ------------- 2,048 plants

9 -------------- X = (9 x 2048) / 64 = 288 plants.

<em>We expect to find 288 long stemmed plants with purple flowers, producing wrinkled peas.</em>

Aloiza [94]
<span>This is speciation. In this process, two distinct species are formed through the intervention of some means such as differing environments or locations. This is done typically as a way of staying evolutionarily competitive in the area in which the species resides. The new species would be the exemplar of that which is best suited to the new conditions.</span>

What information can you get about earthquakes location from only two seismic stations data?
maksim [4K]

<u>Answer</u>:

From only two seismic stations data we can get the direction from which the Earthquake originated.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When the information taken into consideration from only one station, it tells us about the epicenter of the earthquake could at any point on that circle. when the information comes from two stations, the circles intersect at  2  points, so there are possibility  of having two epicenters. With three stations, the circles intercept at only one point, which must be the epicenter. The sesmic station present in the network helps in measuring the movement of plates from the ground motion. the signature sesmograph tells us about the bigger earthquakes.
