Proteins is used to build and repair cells.

Protein can be found in every living cell and it is very important building block in the body. Protein supply amino acids which were being used to create and repair cells, enzymes, red blood cells, antibodies and tissues. In the body, protein functions by maintaining fluid balance and transportation substances. Protein can be gotten from meat, dairy products, soyabeans, nuts, beans and certain grains. However, protein from meat and other animal products are known as complete protein.

(2pts) While doing this experiment, it will be important to keep everything on ice. Why is it important to keep everything cold?

mart [117]

Answer:

Temperature is an essential aspect in any experiment as it can affect the various variables of the experiment. It can affect the result and outcomes of an experiment as per the interaction various molecules shows with the temperature.

In molecular biology related experiments that deals with the protein related experiments are also effected by the temperature as enzymatic reactions are slow on low temperature and proteins are also act like enzymes. On high temperature protein may lead to increase in collisions of the molecules of protein and fasten the enzymatic reaction and may lead to degrade the protein.

In hamsters, we can examine the genes for coat color and eye color which are linked:B = brown coat, b = white coat, G = green ey

Inessa [10]

Answer:

10.2 cM

Explanation:

Given,

pure breeding parent 1 : BBgg = brown coat and pink eyes

pure breeding parent 2 : bbGG = white coat and green eyes

BBGG X bbgg = F1 = BbGg ( All are brown with green eyes )

When F1 progeny is test crossed with white coat and pink eyes hamster:

BbGg X BbGg = F2 =

brown, pink eyes = 99 = parental

white, green eyes = 103 = parental

brown, green eyes = 12 = recombinant

white, pink eyes = 11 = recombinant

Recombination frequency =

(total number of recombinants / total progeny ) * 100

= [( 11 + 12 ) / ( 99 + 103 + 12 + 11 )] * 100 = (23/225)*100 = 0.102 * 100 = 10.2 %

1 % recombination frequency = 1 cM distance between genes

Hence, the distance between B and G gene is 10.2 cM
