Why is it important to dispose of wastes from nuclear power plants carefully?

Biology

Answer:

B) The wastes are radioactive and could cause cancer.

Explanation:

Nuclear reactors are devices used to initiate and control a self-sustained nuclear chain reaction. These devices are used at nuclear power plants for electricity generation.

The material used in a nuclear plant are highly radioactive and cancerous to the human body as their radiations are harmful.

Hence it important to dispose of wastes from nuclear power plants carefully because the waste from such plants are radioactive and could cause cancer.

The scientists mapping the SNPs in the human genome noticed that groups of SNPs tended to be inherited together, in blocks known
Over [174]

Answer:

SNPs have shown that only 0.1 % of DNA sequences are different in the human genome between different individuals, thereby all the inherited phenotypic variation observed in our species is associated with only 0.1 % of differences at the genome level  

Explanation:

Haplotypes are block-like sequences of DNA that are inherited together due to low recombination rates. Moreover, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping is a very useful methodology used to map the site of SNP mutations (i.e., SNP variants). In this regard, it has been observed that there are approximately 10 million common SNPs in the human genome. These SNPs contribute to the wide range of phenotypic variation observed in human populations for different traits (e.g., eye color, hair, weight, height, etc). Moreover, researchers have determined that SNPs can be clustered into haplotypes, thereby haplotypes can be accurately sampled by as few as approx. 300,000 selected SNPs, which are sufficient to represent all of the genetic variation across different human genomes.

How can competitive and noncompetitive inhibition be distinguished in terms of KM?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "The apparent value of KM increases with a competitive inhibitor, while it remains unchanged with a noncompetitive inhibitor".

Explanation:

The KM value in an enzymatic reaction is defined as the substrate concentration at which the half of the enzyme molecules are binding with the substrate. A way to distinguish between a competitive and noncompetitive inhibition is that the apparent value of KM increases with a competitive inhibitor, while it remains unchanged with a noncompetitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor would make that a higher concentration of substrate is needed, while a noncompetitive inhibitor does not change KM since the inhibitor binds to a site of the enzyme different from the active site.
