The dissolved oxygen content in water
Answer: Transcription - A
Explanation:
This problem is talking about the lac operon and the gene expression of lac operon. If the gene is turned off, then transcription, the generation of mRNA won't occur.
The disorder where the grandfather and the grandchild are affected is related with the X chromosome and is called Sex linked or X linked disorder.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
All the sex linked disorders are recessive in character i.e the normal allele is dominant over the mutated allele. In females, there are 2 X chromosomes, so the mutated allele is only expressed when there are both the mutated alleles, else its masked by the dominant normal allele. But in males, there's only one X chromosome, so if a mutated allele is present, it's readily expressed.
If the Grandfather is diseased, then he must have that mutated allele in X chromosome. Through reproduction, its received by the mother, but she is normal because the other allele received from grandmother was normal. But mother has one of the X chromosomes with mutated allele, which is received by the grandson who again becomes diseased.
So the disorder must be X linked disorder
Clostridium botulinum is an anaerobic, spore-forming, bacterium organism that releases a toxin that causes muscle relaxation. The toxin that is released is a neurotoxic protein: Botulinum toxin (BTX) and <span>is produced only in an anaerobic environment. </span>This toxin is used as a a medicine to treat overactive muscle movement.
