A large proportion of our cells, muscles and tissue is made up of amino acids, meaning they carry out many important bodily functions, such as giving cells their structure.

How will you determine which strain is wild type and which strain is mutant? Can you justify your answers using molecular biolog
Levart [38]

Answer: The simplest way is to determine if a strain is mutant is observing morphology, growth rate, double time, etc but it is accurate if you can prove if the strain is deficient in one aminoacid or can't metabolize lactose, etc.

Explanation: A wildtype strain functions normally, for example, can metabolize as a carbon source, glucose, lactose and other sugars, can synthesize all the aminoacids requered for protein synthesis, etc. If a strain suffers a mutation and it is inheritable, the strain become a mutant. Since several mutations can be silent ones, only those that interfere with a process, can be assesed easyly.

For example, if you have several strains and put them in a lactose medium, but some of them cannot growth means that are lactose mutants. Those strains could carry a mutation in genes that encode lactose degrading enzymes or in regulatory genes of the lac operon, etc.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

It is usually easier to calculate an enzyme's reaction velocity from the rate of appearance of PRODUCT rather than the rate of disappearance of a SUBSTRATE. Enzyme activity is measured as an INITIAL reaction velocity, the velocity before much SUBSTRATE has been depleted and before much PRODUCT has been generated. It is easier to measure the appearance of a small amount of PRODUCT from a baseline of zero PRODUCT than to measure the disappearance of small amount of SUBSTRATE against a background of high concentration of SUBSTRATE.

the allele for yellow peas is dominant to the allele for green peas. how would you represent the alleles of a plant that is hete
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: The alleles of a plant that is heterozygous for seed color can be represented as Y for dominant allele for yellow seed and y for recessive allele for green seed.

Explanation: A plant that is heterozygous for seed colour has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for seed colour. If Y represents the dominant allele for yellow seed colour and y represents the recessive allele for green seed colour, therefore the plant has a genotype of Yy. A dominant allele is one that has the ability to mask the effect of a recessive allele while a recessive allele is one whose effect is masked by a dominant allele. Dominant alleles are denoted with upper cases while recessive alleles are denoted with lower cases. A plant that is heterozygous for seed colour with genotype Yy will manifest outwardly as Yellow seed colour due to the presence of the dominant allele Y.

If the student has mass 75 kg, and if the stairs are 3 m high, then
