Pepsi [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A single antibody gene can code for different related proteins, depending on the splicing that takes place post-transcriptionally.

Explanation:

According to the "one-gene, one-enzyme hypothesis", a gene code for single specific enzyme only. Beadle and Tatum proposed the one-gene, one-enzyme hypothesis that states that a gene encodes the genetic information for the synthesis of one enzyme only. However, alternative splicing in eukaryotes allows the formation of more than one related proteins/enzymes from a single gene.

For instance, alternative splicing of single primary transcript transcribed from an antibody gene allows the formation of multiple proteins. The primary transcript encoded by this gene has a segment of the gene that serves as either intron or exon. Depending on particular combinations of exons retained after splicing, multiple related proteins are formed by respective mRNA.

Propane is burned to provide the heat in many cooking grills. The chemical
tangare [24]

Answer: it's 3CO2+4H2O+Energy

Propane is a linear alkane of formula C3H8. It is mainly used as fuel (this is the main component of liquefied petroleum gas) in cooking and chemical industry reactions.

The reaction of its complete combustion by the presence of oxygen is:

C3H8 (gas) + 5O2  ==> 3 CO2 + 4H2O + energy (2220⋅kJ)

As we can see, propane can release carbon dioxide and water as every combustion reaction, and a lot of energy in the form of heat.

Explain how homeostasis and metabolism are interrelated
balandron [24]
Homeostasis is the upkeep of a steady interior condition. In the Biology setting, it implies a consistent body condition, for instance, steady body temperature, blood glucose level. Metabolism alludes to the responses that occur in the body which enables life to be kept up. You need digestion occurring keeping in mind the end goal to look after homeostasis.
