mina [271]3 years ago

It is true that in South Africa (and also Namibia) it is still legal for big game hunters to shoot rhinos for trophies but this allowance is strictly limited to 5 rhinos per year for both countries and these are only for old, post-reproductive bulls. This small quota is most likely related to the fact that 3 out of 5 rhino species is on the critically endangered species list.

Where in the cell cycle does the type of mutation in chromosomal translocation occur?
Makovka662 [10]

During metaphase 1 of meiosis of the cell cycle chromosomal translocation occur.

Explanation:

Chromosomal translocation is abnormal phenomenon when a fragment of chromosomes detaches and gets stick to the non-homologous chromosome in an individual. These are causative of aneuploid, cancer and infertility in organism.

In metaphase 1 of meiosis the chromosomes gets aligned on the metaphase plate. This leads to surety of equal number of chromosome in the cell.

Chromosomal translocation are seen in metaphase 1 because it is the phase of rearrangement of chromosomes where fragments easily gets attach to the other chromosome.

Do biological systems contradict the second law of thermodynamics? by taking energy from their surroundings and synthesizing lar
Bogdan [553]
Biological systems do not contradict the second law of thermodynamics. Even in this case, entropy is still always increasing. Biological systems can only decrease their own entropy by using copious amounts of energy and by increasing entropy in their surrounding environment. Also, unfavorable anabolism reactions are always paired with more favorable reactions, such as the use of ATP in order to make the overall Gibb's free energy of the reaction negative.

Once an experiment is complete,
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

D. altering it to fit within the hypothesis

Explanation:

An experiment is carried out to fill an inquisition i.e. to answer a question. According to the scientific method, prior to experimentation, there must be a HYPOTHESIS. The hypothesis is tested for rejection or approval via experimentation.

After the experiment has been conducted, several things can be done with the data obtained. For example:

- Data can be interpreted

- the data can be plotted in a graph to find correlations

- It can be analyzed it with statistical analysis.

One thing that should never be done is; altering the data from experimentation to fit in the hypothesis.

Igoryamba

Answer:

A. Repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"

B. Repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"

C. Repeats of Aspartic acid

Explanation:

A. The synthetic RNA with GC repeats would have repeats to two codons: GCG and CGC which in turn code for alanine and arginine amino acids respectively.  Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"

RNA: GCG CGC GCG CGC GCG CGC  

Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine ...

B. The synthetic RNA with UA repeats would have repeats to two codons: UAU and AUA which in turn code for tyrosine and Isoleucine amino acids respectively.  Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"

RNA: UAU AUA UAU AUA UAU AUA

Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine

C. The synthetic RNA with GAC repeats would code for polypeptide of aspartic acid only as GAC codes for aspartic acid.

RNA: GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC
