Answer:

B) Telomerase is a ribonuclear protein containing a section of RNA complementary to the telomeres

C. telomerase is reactivated in cancer cells, contributing to their immortality

Explanation:

  • Telomerase elongates telomere ends
  • Telomerase binds to a RNA molecule containing  a sequence complementary to the telomeric repeat.
  • Telomerase is usually not active in somatic cells but is active in cancer cells- the protein acts to extend the shortened telomeres in these cells preventing them from dying

Is selection more effective against recessive alleles in haploid or diploid organisms?
svet-max [94.6K]
The selection of more effective which is against recessive alleles in haploid organisms than diploid organisms. This is because haploid organisms contain a single set of alleles if a deleterious allele is present in haploid organisms which will produce its effect immediately as there will be no dominant allele which can prevent the expression of the recessive allele as it happens in diploids. Recessive allele will not produce its effect in presence of the dominant allele in the case of heterozygote which is Aa.
Where there is haploid the selection will be more effective when removing recessive alleles in the population. It is the homozygous recessive condition which as aa then the selection will act against recessive alleles.
