Answer:
Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is an enzyme required to eliminate toxins such as acetaldehyde and alcohol, thereby mutations in this protein may be associated with the Alcohol flush syndrome (AFS)
Explanation:
ALDH2 is a protein required for ATP generation by catalyzing the oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids (i.e., oxidation of NADH to NAD+). Mutations in the ALDH2 gene have been associated with the inactive form of this enzyme, and this specific mutation at position 487 alters its enzymatic activity associated with the metabolism of acetaldehyde and alcohol. This amino acid substitution may lead to the active site-directed inactivation of the enzyme.
The answer to this question is:
Light (sunlight), water, and carbon dioxide! Oh, and chloroplasts.
So, the population went up with every spring season and fell slightly in the winter; it increased within the course of 10 years
Answer:
A pollen tube grows from the pollen grain into the ovary
Explanation:
Water is needed for fertilization in several plant groups because the sperm needs to swim to meet the non-motile eggs of the female organs.
<em>However in angiosperms, the pollen germinates and a structure known as pollen tube which contains the male gametophyte (sperm) grows into the ovary where the ovule is located and the male gametophyte is deposited in the ovule to initiate the fertilization process.</em>
<em>Hence, water is really not necessary for fertilization in the angiosperms.</em>
