Assume that for a given gene a mutation creates an allele that functions as a dominant negative. The gene codes for a protein th

at forms a tetramer (4) within the cell. If at least one of the subunits has the mutant structure the entire protein is inactivated. For a heterozygous individual, what percent of the tretramers present in the cell will be inactive?

Answer: 100%

Explanation:

if the mutation presents autosomal dominant inheritance, each affected individual will show 100% alteration in the protein, thus , being dominant, it is considered that the disease pattern will predominate even if it has genes that do not express it since these will be recessive and canceled by the dominant ones.

How can a megaphone used by a cheerleader allow people on the opposite side of a field to hear her better?
aalyn [17]

<em>A megaphone used by a cheerleader can allow people on the opposite side of a field to hear her better because;</em>

D. Solid objects can change the direction of sound waves; megaphones allow users to determine the general direction of the sound.

<u>Determination of the general direction of the sound lessens its dispersion and  thus, it reaches the observers at a higher intensity, hence it being louder.</u>

How is the chromosome number reduced between meiosis I and meiosis II? a. crossing over c. two replications b. metaphase d. no r
solniwko [45]

The answer is; B

During metaphase I of Meiosis I , homologous sister chromosomes line up the metaphase plate in pairs. During anaphase I, the sister chromosomes of the pairs are separated and move to opposite poles. This way, the resulting daughter cells have half the chromosome number as the parent cell.

What gas is a reactant in cellular respiration
pochemuha

Answer:

Explanation: Although cellular respiration has multiple parts, the basic chemical equation is:

Answer: Oxygen

Explanation: Oxygen + Glucose (sugar) = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy (ATP)

This equation is often broken into two parts, the reactants and the products. Reactants are the molecules that begin cellular respiration, in this case that would be oxygen and glucose. Products are what forms during cellular respiration. Here, the products are carbon dioxide, water, and energy. As the focus of this lesson is on the reactants of cellular respiration, oxygen and glucose, let's take a look at those.

Reactants--

The first reactant in the equation for cellular respiration is oxygen. Most people are familiar with oxygen since it's the primary gas needed for sustaining our lives. We obtain oxygen by simply breathing. Oxygen is highly reactive and therefore perfectly suited for driving chemical reactions such as cellular respiration. However, people may be less familiar with the second reactant in our respiration equation: glucose.
