Answer:
Chromosome 11 likely contains 1,300 to 1,400 genes that provide instructions for making proteins
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Archaea bacteria can live an extreme places.
Answer:
During meiosis I, the cell is diploid because the homologous chromosomes are still located within the same cell membrane. Only after the first cytokinesis, when the daughter cells of meiosis I are fully separated, are the cells considered haploid.
Answer:
a mutation that blocks the GTPase activity of Ras
Explanation:
A G protein in inactive state is GDP bound but as soon as a guanine exchange factor (GEF) exchanges it with GTP it gets activated which means that in GTP bound state it is active. G - protein has endogenous GTPase activity. Upon interaction of GAP, the GTPase activity of this protein is exhibited. When GAP is present, hydrolysis of GTP into GDP occurs which leads to inactivation of G protein. A mutation which will block GTPase activity of Ras will therefore result in constitutive active signaling even in the absence of ligand binding to it's receptor. In such scenario, GTP will not be hydrolyzed into GDP so signaling will be up-regulated.
Answer:
First, second, and last are correct statements.
For accuracy and reliability of any experiment, a number of observations must be as large as possible. It reduces the effect of any observation or any event which might have happened by chance or error.
Thus, finches were better to record observations as they were available in large number as compared to the tortoise.
In addition, the life cycle of birds is smaller as compared to the tortoise which enabled the scientists to observe more generations.
Lastly, the birds were easy to capture and track as compared to the tortoise. Tortoise being an amphibian could live on land as well as in water which made it difficult to track them.
