Black case is an enzyme that is involved in breaking down lactose the sugar in milk which term best describes the role of lactas

e in the digestion of milk
Biology
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

Although I was unable to find the multiple choices for the question, here is a simple, summarized explanation:

<u>Lactase</u> is an enzyme that is involved in breaking down lactose the sugar in milk. It is produced by a gene known as the LCT gene.

This enzyme is produced in the small intestine, and its main role is to digest a sugar called lactose, which is present in dairy products such as milk, and then transform it into simpler sugars - glucose and galactose -. This 'transformation' makes it easier for the body to absorb these sugars into the bloodstream and eventually turn them into energy.

arlik [135]

Answer:

a. Fiber

Explanation:

The major nutrients required by humans in food are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Our food also has dietary fibers and water. Dietary fibers or fibers are also known as roughage. Fibers are present mainly in plant products such as whole grains, pulses, fruits and vegetables. Fibers only add bulk and do not provide any nutrients to us. However, dietary fibers help the body get rid of undigested food.

How do lethal genes cause death in unborn babies and later after birth?​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Recessive lethal genes can code for either dominant or recessive traits, but they do not actually cause death unless an organism carries two copies of the lethal allele. Examples of human diseases caused by recessive lethal alleles include cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anaemia, and achondroplasia.

Hope this helps!

Some inbred strains of the weedy plant Arabidopsis thaliana flower early in the growing season, but other strains flower at late
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a. Let us consider that L is responsible for late and l is responsible for early. From the mentioned data, it can be concluded that allele L or late is dominant over early. By crossing plants 1 and 4 we get the expected ratio of 3: 1, which shows that it follows Mendel's law of dominant.  

b. The genotype of all the four plants are:  

1st plant = Ll

2nd plant = ll

3rd plant = LL

4th plant = Ll

c. If the plant 1 is self-fertilized then the expected progeny will be 3 (late): 1 (early).  

In case if the 2nd plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be only early.  

In case if the 3rd plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be only late.  

In case if the 4th plant is self-fertilized, the expected progeny will be 3 (late): 1 (early).
