The ability to taste the chemical PTC is determined in humans by a dominant allele T, with tasters having the genotypes Tt or TT

and non-tasters having tt. If you discover that 36 percent of the members of a population cannot taste PTC, then according to the Hardy-Weinberg rule, the frequency fo the T allele should be:
a. 0.4
b. 0.6
c. 0.64
d. 0.8

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The genotypic frequency for tt (q²) = 36% = 36/100 = 0.36

To calculate for the allelic frequency of t which is q, we have to find the square root of q² to do this. Thus

√q² = √0.36 = 0.6 this q = 0.6

The allelic frequency p for the T allele can then be calculated using this formula p + q = 1

Where q is 0.6 thus p= 1 - 0.6 = 0.4.

This the allelic freq of T is 0.4

The human metallothionein IIA gene (hMTIIA) is transcriptionally regulated through the interplay of regulatory elements and tran
forsale [732]

Answer:

The correct answer is - regulation of the heavy metal and their toxicity.

Explanation:

Metallothionein is a group of cysteine-rich, small in size, and highly conserved proteins that bind to various metal ions and regulate their activity or toxicity in transcriptional level.

Metallothionein IIA is one of the metallothioneins that binds to heavy metal and helps cells to be protected from the toxicity of these heavy metals. These proteins are present in almost every eukaryotic organisms virtually. These proteins are highly induced to express highly in the present of heavy metals.

Thus, the correct answer is - regulation of the heavy metal and their toxicity.

Why is oxygen important in the electron transport pathway and atp synthesis?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

NADH and FADH2 carry electrons to specialized cell membranes,where they are harvested to create ATP.Once the electrons are used, they become depleted and must be removed from the body. Oxygen is essential for this task. Used electrons bind with oxygen; this molecules eventually bind with hydrogen to form water
