Answer:
True
Explanation:
Geneticists have discovered that all human embryos start life as females. In the early development in the embryonic stage, this is true both for humans and mammals. This changes only at the 2nd month (in the case of humans, since different mammals have different gestating periods) if the embryo can elaborate enough androgens (dominant male hormone) to offset the maternal estrogens (dominant female hormone) then, maleness develops.
Answer;
-Down the concentration gradients; evenly distributed
Diffusing molecules move down the concentration gradients until they are evenly distributed.
Explanation;
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
-Whenever a substance exists in greater concentration on one side of a semipermeable membrane, such as cell membranes, any substance that can move down its concentration gradient across the membrane will do so. If the substances can move across the cell membrane without the cell expending energy, the movement of molecules is called passive transport.
-The mechanism of molecules moving across a cell membrane from the side where they are more concentrated to the side where they are less concentrated is a form of passive transport called simple diffusion.
Answer: Fruit will not brown. Browning requires a functional enzyme.
Explanation:
Genetic engineering refers to the manipulation of an organism's genes. Scientists use a variety of molecular tools and techniques to cut up and join genetic material from different species and to introduce this new hybrid DNA into another organisms. <u>The overall goal is to add or remove an organism's genetic makeup for the better, or to transfer DNA code from one species into the other, in order to form new combinations or heritable genetic material.</u>
Enzymatic browning is a reaction that occurs in fruits which results in negative effects on characteristics such as taste, color, and nutritional value. This reaction is a caused by phenolic compounds' oxidation by an enzyme called polyphenol oxidase, which causes the generation of dark pigments. This is often seen in apples which are rich in this enzymes and susceptible to this enzymatic browning.
If through genetic engineering, the gene encoding the enzyme responsible for the apple browing is removed, then this enzyme cannot be produced by the apple. Consequently, apples will not brown<u>,</u> because there will not be a polyphenol oxidase that oxidates the phenolic compounds.
Answer:
In sickle cell anemia, blood is also chronically low in oxygen. This lack of oxygen-rich blood can damage nerves and organs, including your kidneys, liver and spleen, and can be fatal. Blindness. Sickle cells can block tiny blood vessels that supply your eyes
Explanation:
Sickle cell disease can cause organ damage, stroke and even death.
