Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

Transposons need to regulate their copy number to avoid errors with chromosomal pairing during meiosis and mitosis such as unequal crossover.

A typical example of this error is called the Alu Sequence or Elements. Alu elements contain more than one million copies found everywhere in the genome of human beings.

Many inherited human diseases such as cancer are related to Alu insertions.

Cheers!

One method for separating polypeptides makes use of their different solubilities. The solubility of large polypeptides in water
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The solubility of any substance in water depends on its polarity. The polar molecule dissolves more easily in the water than the non polar molecule. Amino acids have different polarity at different pH.

(a) (Lys-Ala)3 : The (Lys-Ala)3 contain more positive charge and highly polar the at pH 7 as compared with the  (Gly)20 that remains uncharged and has less polarity.

(b) (Glu)20 :This amino acids negatively charged at pH 7 and highly polar than the (Phe-Met)3 which is non polar or less polar and hence least soluble  in water.

(c) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is highly polar at pH 3 as compared with the (Ala-Asp-Gly)5 that contains the carboxylate groups of Asp residues that are partially neutral. The  (Asn-Ser-His)5 contains = the imidazole groups of His residues are fully polar and soluble in water.

(d) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is polar at pH 6.0 because both have polar side chains Ser but (Asn-Ser-His)5 is only partially partially protonated due to the His side chains. Thus,  (Asn-Ser-His)5 is more soluble in water.

According to the image below, which season is about to begin in the northern hemisphere?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

winter

Explanation:

On this image, we can see the Earth being tilted away by 23.5 degrees from the Sun. This tilting puts the Northern Hemisphere in a situation where it is the one that is tilted away from the Sun, thus it will receive less sunlight, as well as less direct sunlight. That will cause lower temperatures on the Northern Hemisphere, thus the winter season will start, and it will last for around three months, at least at the mid-latitude zones. On the other side, the Southern Hemisphere is more exposed to the Sun during this tilting, so t receives more sunlight, and more direct sunlight, resulting in summer in this half of the planet.
