The correct answer is B combustion.
Lavoisier’s oxygen theory of combustion was one of his most notable contribution to science and earned him the title of the “father of modern chemistry”. He recognized the combustible property of oxygen and that phosphorus and other metallic elements increased in terms of weight when burned.
Answer/Explanation:
(1) a mutation in the coding region, resulting in an inactive protein
To check to see if there is a mutation, you could extract the DNA from the cancer cells and then perform PCR to amplify the gene of interest. You could then perform sanger sequencing and compare the sequence to the normal gene to see if a mutation is present. To test the effect of the mutation, you would want to see if an active protein has been formed.
To see if a normal sized protein has been formed, you could perform a western blot, comparing the protein band to the WT protein band. If the protein is absent or much smaller, it is likely not a functional protein.
(2) epigenetic silencing at the promoter of the gene, resulting in reduced transcription.
To check for changes in the epigenetic landscape of the promoter, you could perform chromatin immunoprecipitation by extracting the chromatin from the tumour cells and using antibodies for different chromatin marks to see what has changed between the normal cells and the tumor cells. E.g. H3K9me3, H3K27me3. You would perform a pull down with the antibody of interest and then PCR for your promoter to specifically look at changes at that gene compared to normal cells. To test DNA methylation, you could perform bisulfite sequencing.
To see how transcription is affected, you could extract RNA from the tumor and normal cells, and compare the levels of RNA between the two samples by qRT-PCR
Explanation:
Melanin is the pigment which absorbs UV light and it is present in skin and gives black colour to it.As we can see africans usually have black skin as they have to face direct uv light.
Answer:
Explanation:
An organism is a body which is made up of many organ systems and parts. Organs constitute these organ systems. Then we will notice that these organs are made up of different types of tissues. Tissues are further analyzed under microscope to see millions of cells. By increasing the magnifying power, we can see that the cells are made up of further small molecules called atoms.
So starting form atom leads to further steps and development steps, an organism is formed. Atoms combine to form cells and each cell in the body perform the same function as our body as a whole perform. No smaller components can perform important functions of body other than cells. That’s y cells are known to be as the fundamental unit of life.
Answer:
"How might different types of organisms--producers, consumers, decomposers--be important to a healthy ecosystem?" (Producers change energy into matter with chemical energy that other organisms can use and then consumers pass the matter and energy on to other organisms by eating and being eaten; decomposers recycle some ...
