Biology

The experiment by Peter Agre who discovered the protein Aquaporin demonstrated the function of proteins that allow facilitated diffusion of water.

Explanation:

Aquaporins are water channel proteins that facilitated diffusion of water. Agre was able to prove its function when a frog’s oocytes showed increased water permeability when an unknown protein (membranous) from the RBCs was introduced into them. The oocytes without proteins did not facilitate water diffusion.  

Aquaporins are membranous proteins that belong to larger intrinsic proteins but act as pores on the cellular membranes to facilitate water diffusion.

Explain the term "Poly Inheritance" and give an example of a human trait that is controlled in such manner
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Polygenic inheritance occurs when one characteristic is controlled by two or more genes. Often the genes are large in quantity but small in effect. Some examples include height, skin color, eye color and weight.

- In polygenic inheritance the "dominant" capital genes are additive, each capital gene adding one unit of color to the genotype.With more capital genes, the phenotype (appearance) gets darker.
