Why is a mutated single copy of a tumor-suppressor gene expected to behave as a recessive gene?

Biology

Doss [256]3 years ago

This is mainly because in order to the tumour suppressor gene to be completely expressed or to no longer be effective in repressing cellular production, both versions, alleles of the gene must be mutated. This is the only way that the rumour suppressor gene to be inactive in its role and behave as a dominant gene.

In the electron transport system
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A. NADH and FADH2 both donate electrons at the same location.

Explanation:

In the respiratory chain, four large protein complexes inserted into the mitochondrial inner membrane transport NADH and FADH₂ electrons (formed in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle) to oxygen gas, reducing them to NAD⁺ and FAD, respectively.

These electrons have great affinity for oxygen gas and, when combined with it, reduce it to water molecules at the end of the reaction.

Oxygen gas effectively participates in cellular respiration at this stage, so its absence would imply interruption of the process.

NADH and FADH₂ electrons, when attracted to oxygen, travel a path through protein complexes, releasing energy in this process.

The energy released by the NADH and FADH₂ electrons in the respiratory chain in theory yields <u>34</u> <u>ATP</u>, however, under normal conditions an average of 26 ATP molecules is formed.

If we consider that these 26 molecules are added to the two ATP formed in glycolysis and two ATP formed in the Krebs cycle, it can be said that cellular respiration reaches a maximum yield of 30 ATP per glucose molecule, although theoretically this number was 38 ATP per glucose molecule.

Why do leaves appear green?
s2008m [1.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is B. Green wavelengths are the least used in photosynthesis.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Plants have a pigment in them called as chlorophyll. This chlorophyll is able to absorb only certain wavelengths of the light within the light spectrum.

From that visible light spectrum, chlorophyll is only able to absorb light of red and blue wavelength. The green light is not absorbed by the by chlorophyll as it is reflected back.

Therefore, this reflection of green light makes the leaves to appear green.
