RNAi is a mechanism involved in gene silencing, the process that turns on and off genes. To do that, it is triggered by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA).
The enzyme "dicer" cuts dsRNA into smaller fragments called (a) small interfering RNA. Once these fragments are cleaved, they bind to argonaut proteins and activate the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). This complex targets and degrades (a) specific messenger RNA (mRNA). By degrading the mRNA, this process interrupts the gene expression.

When the concentration of an enzyme increases, the reaction rate will decrease. True or false
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

it increases because with more enzymes comes more active sites......since binding of the substrate and the enzyme will be faster increasing the products given out hence reaction is faster

Describe how advances in DNA technolgy are assisting the work of those in medical fields
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Advances in DNA technology have allowed for treatments such as gene therapy in the medical field. Nowadays, there are tools like the CRIPSR-Cas9 - harnessed from bacteria's immune system- that can nip a ‘bad’ region of DNA, which is responsible for disease, and replace it with a proper functioning bit. This is how genetic disorders are going to be addressed in the near future in mainstream medical facilities.

Recombinant DNA technology is being used to create clones of transgenic organisms that produce products of significance in the medical fields. An example is incorporating the insulin gene in bacteria genome. These clones of modified bacteria colonies secrete insulin protein that is purified and injected in diabetic persons to lower their sugar level to normal.

When Mendel crossed a plant homozygous for round seeds to another plant homozygous for wrinkled seeds, he found that all the pro
deff fn [24]

Answer:

a. The allele for round seeds is dominant to the allele for wrinkled seeds.

Explanation:

Mendel found that when two pure breeding plants that differ from each other with respect to one genetic trait are crossed, all the progeny express the phenotype of one parent. The phenotype of the other parent is not expressed in the progeny. He concluded that the genetic trait that is expressed in the F1 generation is dominant over the other which is masked in this generation.

A cross between pure breeding plants for round seeds and the wrinkled seeds obtained all the round seeded progeny. This meant that the phenotype "round" was dominant over the phenotype "wrinkled". If the allele "R" gave round phenotype and the allele "r" imparted wrinkled phenotype, the allele "R" was dominant to the "r".
