The general expression for mutation rate is the number of mutant cells over the total number of mutant cells. Given that the cel

ls were treated and then allowed to complete one round of replication, the final computation of mutation rate should be divided by two (two cells are plated for each cell treated). What is the rate of mutation at the locus associated with leucine biosynthesis

Answer:

The rate of mutation is low

Explanation:

Biosynthesis of leucine means the biological production or breakdown of leucine.

Leucine is very important in the body because it helps in the protein synthesis and muscular development. It should be understood also that too much of leucine in the body might result to low blood pressure.

In this case, the rate of mutation to the locus related to leucine biosythesis will be low.

romanna [79]
It would have 20 protons, 20 neutrons, and 20 electrons. Protons and electrons are USUALLY (I say usually because of the different types of atoms) the same as the atomic number. To find neutrons you take the atomic mass minus the atomic number. 40-20=20

A child was exposed to a disease-causing virus (most likely chicken pox from the Varicella zoster virus) when he was 5 years old
STatiana [176]

Answer: What is expected to happen is that the secondary immune system acts immediately against the virus.

Explanation:

When a virus first enters our body, in order to defend itself, the body must first recognize what the antigen is in order to fight it through <u>antibodies</u>. Once it does it will keep a memory of it that it can use if this virus enters the body again. <u>This will be done through the secondary immune system</u>.

As the body already recognizes the antigen, it knows how to fight it immediately, generating a thousand times the amount of antibodies generated the first time.

Thanks to its memory cells, the virus will remain much less time in the body.
