Answer:

Average max. elongation rate = modified RNA pol./ wild type RNA pol = 2/12 = 0.166 nucleotides per sec.

Explanation:

After treating the wild type and experimental RNA with amanitin solution, the amanitin actively binds to the active site of wild type RNA polymerase, inhibiting addition of nucleotides and also it interferes with the motility of RNA pol. along the DNA template, due to which their is a sharp decline in maximum elongation rate of mRNA. In case of experimental RNA polymerase, due to single base substitution the experimental strain is already having very low elongation rate, but binding of amanitin causes constraint on the motility of RNA polymerase through the DNA template, thereby decreasing the elongation rate. Average max. elongation rate = modified RNA pol./ wild type RNA pol = 2/12 = 0.166 nucleotides per sec.

Why is reproductive isolation required for speciation to occur?
lana [24]
Let's say a geographical barrier separates a species into two different population. Which also cause a reproductive isolation ( the two pupolations cannot interbred)

Throughout the time (lets say a million years), the two populations will undergo a lot of changes in their  respective genomes and eventually will form 2 different species.

If there is no reproductive isolation, the 2 population could interbred with one another and there will be no speciation

How is cancer related to the cell cycle?
solong [7]

Answer:

Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumor.

Hope I helped! :)
