Answer:
D. N
Explanation:
Meiosis is a kind of cell division which produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell and have a reduced number of chromosomes (by half).
Meiosis occurs only in reproductive cells to produce gametes. If a diploid (2n) cell undergoes meiosis, a haploid (n) daughter cell will result. This means that the chromosome number has been reduced by half in order to maintain the chromosomal number of the next generation.
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Water soluble hormones associate with the G protein of cAMP. This G protein is intra-cellular i.e found inside the cell.
However in case of lipid derived hormones, the hormone has to diffuse through the cell across the plasma membrane to bind to DNA or the intra-cellular receptors.This regulates the gene transcription and induces protein production that affects the cell functioning for a long time.
Hence, option B is correct
Answer:
295
Explanation:
Antibodies (also known as immunoglobulins) are immune system-related proteins that circulate in the bloodstream in order to recognize pathogenic harmful substances (antigens) and neutralize them. An antibody consists of two immunoglobulin heavy chains and two immunoglobulin light chains. There are two types of immunoglobulin light chains: 1-the kappa (κ) light chain, which is encoded by the immunoglobulin κ locus; and 2-the lambda (λ) light chain, which is encoded by the immunoglobulin λ locus. The immunoglobulin light chain is a multidomain protein composed of two domains: 1- the N-terminal variable (V) domain and 2-the C-terminal constant (C) domain. V(D)J recombination is a type of somatic rearrangement process by which T and B cells can assemble different gene segments, which are referred to as variable (V), diversity (D) and joining (J) gene segments. In the question above the number of possible genomic recombination events between immunoglobulin gene segments can be calculated as >> (5 x 35) + (4 x 30) = 295.
