Explanation: A lunar eclipse is where the moon is right in front of the sun. Thus causing darkness on the earth during the lunar eclipse.
Answer:
Explanation:
LHON (Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy): Is a disease that is characterized by loss of vision in young adults.
Sickle cell anemia: Is a disease characterized by production of abnormally shaped red blood cells, that is, not round in shape as normal but are 'sickle' shaped or elongated/crescent shaped.
Both diseases are heritable But LHON is caused by mutations existing in the mitochondrion thus only inherited maternally.
Sickle cell anemia is caused by mutations in the HBB gene which produces the beta subunit of hemoglobin. It is inherited from recessive genes of both parents.
Answer:
Agree
Explanation:
The biotic factors of an ecosystem include all the populations in a habitat, such as all the species of plants, animals, and fungi, as well as all the micro-organisms. Also recall that the nonliving factors are called abiotic factors. Abiotic factors include temperature, water, soil, and air.
Attachment of acetyl groups to histone promotes transcription.
This mechanism is known as histone acetylation and it is a part of gene expression. The lysine residues inside the N-terminal tail from the histone core of the nucleosome are the substrate for enzymes-histone acetyltransferase which transfer an acetyl functional group from another molecule. Acetylation removes the positive charge on the histones and thus decrease the interaction negatively charged phosphate groups of DNA. As a result, chromatin becomes more relaxed structure and transcription is promoted.
Answer:
They tend to move away from any stimulus be it light or mechanical.
Explanation:
The earthworm, upon encountering a stimulus that is mechanical in nature will turn its anterior end slightly away from the stimulus. Persistence of the stimulus may cause the worm to contract the longitudinal muscles of the opposite side to move the body around taking a new direction. And they also have the behaviour of tending to move away from any light stimulus.
