Why did primates evolve?

Biology
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
4 0
<span>Humans did not evolve from apes, gorillas or chimps. We are all modern species that have followed different evolutionary paths, though humans share a common ancestor with some primates, such as the African ape. The timeline of human evolution is long and controversial, with significant gaps.</span>

Antibodies are composed of two types of peptides, heavy chains and light chains. One of the major classes of antibody molecules
timurjin [86]

Answer and Explanation:

a. form the antigen-binding site ⇒ both chains

The antigen-binding site is formed by one hypervariable region of the light chain (VL) and one hypervariable region of the heavy chain (VH). So, both type of chains contributes to antigen recognition.

b. contain multiple variable domains ⇒ none

Both chains - light and heavy - contain <u>only one</u> variable domain (VL and VH).  

c. are found in the Fab fragment ⇒ both chains

The Fab fragment is composed of portions of both light and heavy chains: each portion contains one variable domain and one constant domain. The Fab fragment binds specifically the antigen.  

d. are found in the FC fragment ⇒ heavy chains

The Fc region is composed of portions of heavy chains (CH² and CH³), so it contains constant domains.  

e. contain only one constant domain ⇒ light chains

Each light chain contains one variable domain (VL) and one constant domain (CL).  

f. contain multiple constant domains ⇒ heavy chains

Each heavy chain contains three constant domains: CH¹, CH² and CH³.  

g. contain only one variable domain ⇒ both chains

Both light and heavy chains contain one variable domain. The difference is given by the number of constant domains: light chains have 1 constant domain while heavy chains have 3 constant domains.

Down's Syndrome is also called Trisomy 21 because affected people have three copies of chromosome 21. How is this possible?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

About 95 percent of the time, Down syndrome is caused by trisomy 21 — the person has three copies of chromosome 21, instead of the usual two copies, in all cells. This is caused by abnormal cell division during the development of the sperm cell or the egg cell.

Which parts of the body assessed by the nurse would confirm a diagnosis of frostbite? select all that apply?
Alex17521 [72]
<span>All extremities of the human body, including fingers, hands, arms, toes, feet, legs, ears, and the nose, could be examined by a nurse to confirm a diagnosis of frostbite. As frostbite is a condition of the skin, any exposed area should suffice to confirm the diagnosis.</span>

3' CTGGCTAC5'           5' GACCGATG 3'    3'CUGGCUAC 5'

Explanation:

Some of the sequence of DNA given is in 3' to 5' direction, mRNA sequence is also given.

The DNA is double stranded helix which replicates by semi conservative mode. The two strands unwind to act as a template for other strands. In transcription the 3' to 5' strand acts as a template because RNA synthesis takes place in 5' to 3' direction. mRNA is single strand. It has nucleotides in it from which 3 base pairs acts as a code for amino acid.

The following table shows DNA strand having complementary sequaence and mRNA synthesized.
