The inheritance of the petite phenotype in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is complicated by an interaction of mitochondrial and nuclea

r genes. Which of the following is a false statement about petites in S. cerevisiae?
A) Segregational petites are characterized by mutations in the nuclear genome.
B) Suppressive petites are characterized by mitochondria lacking most of its DNA.
C) Neutral petites, when crossed to wild type, yield wild-type mitochondrial function.
D) The three categories of petites are segregational, neutral, and suppressive.
E) Both nuclear and cytoplasmic (mitochondrial) genes contribute to the petite phenotype in some cases.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The three categories of petites are segregational, neutral, and suppressive and both nuclear and cytoplasmic (mitochondrial) genes contribute to the petite phenotype in some cases. Suppressive petites are characterized by perfoming crosses between petite and wild-type and discovering that all offspring are petite, this exhibit a "dominant" behavior which suppresses wild-type mitochondrial function and not a lack of mitochondrial function.

How is co2 converted to glucose?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is converted to glucose during the Calvin-Benson cycle. This requires the overall reduction of CO2, using the electrons available from the oxidation of NADPH. Thus the dark reactions represent a redox pathway. NADPH is oxidized to NADP+ and CO2 is reduced to glucose.

What is happening in the food vacuoles that causes the yeast to turn blue?
Rom4ik [11]
Answer;
Food vacuoles that causes the yeast to turn blue indicates active digestive processes in the cell.The blue represents the mature food vacuoles as some yeast cells have now entered, and beginning the digestive process. 

Explanation; 
The ingested yeast cells appear red during early stages of being eaten. Later some of the yeast cells will enter into the food vacuoles to which acidosomes have fused, lowering the pH. The yeast cells within the food vacuole will turn blue, indicating active digestive processes in the cell. It is used for yeast uptake in the paramecium food vacuoles.

Why is it more important to check for errors during DNA replication than during protein synthesis?
Citrus2011 [14]

Ans.

Errors that occur during DNA replication lead to mutations, which represent permanent, heritable changes in genetic material. These errors can pass from parent cell to daughter cells and affect many generations of cells.

On the other hands, errors that occur during protein synthesis lead to formation of defected or non-functional protein. These errors cannot pass from one cell to another and affect only one cell, which requires that protein for its proper functioning.

Thus, 'it is more important to check errors during DNA replication that errors during protein synthesis.'
