Answer:
A. If demand is elastic at the current price, the company knows that an increase in price would reduce total revenues.
Explanation:
Elasticity refers to the change in the consumer's demand or the supplier's ability to produce depending on the change in the price of a commodity or the income.
When the demand is elastic, <em>people are able to change or adapt their demands immediately.</em> So, this means that if the price of a commodity will be increased, the people will not purchase that much on that commodity. This will then affect the total revenue of the company. Due to low demand for the product, the total revenue will decrease.
Answer:
ΔS will be positive.
Explanation:
Denaturation may be defined as the loss of the biological activity of protein by changing the physical conditions of protein. Protein can be denatured by increasing temperature, pH and salts.
Entropy may be defined as the randomness of molecule. The entropy increase with increase in the randomness of the substance. Since, protein has been denatured, the random coil confirmation increase. This means the randomness of protein has been increased, this increase the entropy and makes it more positive.
Thus, entropy becomes more positive.
Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase. Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language.
Answer:
Option A, Some people consider embryos to possess rights equal to those of fully developed human beings.
Explanation:
When stem cells are derived from embryo, the embryo dies in lieu to end of its cell development and this happens because stem cells are the only cells that have potential to develop an embryo by producing more stem cells and differentiating them into specific organs.
In most of the study, embryonic stem cells are derived from embryos that are obtained from IVF technique as an spare embryo. But this act is considered unethical as embryos have life within them and hence they also have rights equal to a fully developed human being.
Hence, option A is correct.
1.What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
2.What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
3.What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?
Probability = ¼ (because each parent has ½ chance ½ X ½ = ¼)
4.What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
Probability = ½ (because each parent has ½ chance of donating the ‘P’ allele and ½ chance of donating the ‘p’ allele (½ x ½) + (½ x ½) = ½
