How are solar energy, the weather, and the water cycle related?

The ability of an organism to change internally or externally in relation to changes in the environment is called _____.

Blababa [14]

The ability of an organism to change internally or externally in relation to changes in the environment is called Homeostasis. Example of some of the most common things which organisms can regulate in response to the changes in environment are body temperature, blood pressure, volume of body water, blood sugar/glucose level etc. These changes help the organism to maintain a constant equilibrium with the external environment in order to support their vital functions. There are various organs in the body which are responsible for Homeostasis but commonly in mammals the signals for such changes are sent by brain. However in less complex life forms, these changes can also be done local to the organ.

How would the process of protein synthesis be affected if the rRNA was not properly working?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:im not sure

Explanation:Errors in protein synthesis disrupt cellular fitness, cause disease phenotypes, and shape gene and genome evolution. ... At this error rate, 15% of average-length protein molecules will contain at least one misincorporated amino acid. Polypeptide errors can induce protein misfolding, aggregation, and cell death (e.g. Ref.

In studying the brains of violent repeat offenders, researchers found that their brains had __________ frontal lobe tissue than

Leto [7]

In studying the brains for violent repeat offenders, researchers found that their brains had eleven percent less frontal lobe tissue than a normal brain.
In this results, it helps to explain why these people do exhibit deficits in cognitive functions. For example, inhibition, organization, and planning.

Poly-ubiquitinated proteins are frequently targeted to the proteasome, a cellular organelle where proteins are kept until needed

dimaraw [331]

That statement is FALSE

It is true that poly-ubiquitinated protein are frequently targeted to the proteasome.
But proteasome is an organelle where proteins to be degraded/destroyed, not needed

hope this helps

Consider a hypothetical scenario in which the genes that determine body color, eye color, and wing type in fruit flies occur on

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The most probable location on the chromosome of each gene is:

wing shape gene ------- eye color gene -------- body color gene

Explanation:

To know if two genes are linked, we must observe the progeny distribution. In a tri-hybrid cross, If individuals, whos genes assort independently, are test crossed, they produce a progeny with equal phenotypic frequencies 1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1. If we observe a different distribution, that is that phenotypes appear in different proportions, we can assume that genes are linked in the heterozygote parent.

We can recognize the parental gametes in the descendants because their phenotypes are the most frequent, while the double recombinants are the less frequent. And simple recombinant gametes produced by the cross, which frequencies are intermediate.

By comparing the parental and the double recombinant we will realize which is the allele that changes in position. The position of this gene is in the middle of the other two genes because in a double recombinant only the central gene changes position in the chromatid.

So, according to this knowledge and the available information in the problem we can estimate the position of the genes in the chromosome.

Phenotypic proportions:

90% of flies with red eyes have curly wings (Parental)

75% of flies with red eyes have black bodies (Simple recombinant)

25% of flies with red eyes have brown bodies (Simple recombinant)

1% of flies have curly wings, white eyes, and black bodies (Double recombinant)

90% of individuals are red-eyed and curly-winged. This is a high frequency, which means that this is the parental phenotype. The other parental phenotype must be white eyes and straight wings.

Flies with curly wings, white eyes, and black bodies represent the lower proportion (1%) so this phenotype must be the double recombinant.

Flies with red eyes and black bodies, and flyes with red eyes and brown bodies are intermediate in proportion, so they must be simple recombinant phenotypes.

Parental)

Red, Curly

White, Straight

Double recombinant)

White, Curly, Black

Red, Straight, Brown

Simple recombinant)

Red, Black

Red, Brown

In the chromatid, there are two regions, Region 1 (from the first gene to the gene in the middle), and region 2 (from the gene in the middle to the gene of the other extreme).

The fact that both simple recombinants are red, tells us that the eye color gene and the body color gene are together, and the recombination occurred either in region 1 or 2.

We know that the double recombinant is White, Curly, Black. We also know that the eye color gene and the body color gene are together, so one of these two must be in the middle.

Parentals are red and curly, which means that the eye color gene and wing shape gene are also together. This leads us to assume that the eye color gene is in the middle.

Finally, the fact that the double recombinant is White, Curly, Black, and knowing that the eye color is in the middle and that both the extreme alleles change position, we can assume that the parental Red, Curly is also black, while the other parental is white, straight and brown. So:

Parental)

Curly ------ Red ------Black (90%)

Straight ----- White ----- Brown

Simple recombinant)

Curly -----White-----Brown

Straight-----Red -----Black (75%)

Curly----Red-----Brown (25%)

Straight ----White-----Black

Double recombinant)

Curly-----White------Black (1%)

Straight----Red------Brown
