Enhancers work by serving as binding sites for transcription factors--proteins that regulate transcription.<span> Enhancers lead to the production of regulatory proteins. The proteins bind to regulatory sites of DNA, triggering transcription of cell-specific proteins.</span>

In pea plants the allele for tall plants in dominant to the allele for short plants, and the allele for purple flower colour is
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4. ttPp

Explanation:

Given - tall is dominant over short pea plant

let assume T is dominant and t is short which is recessive

Similarly, P for dominant purple flower and p for white flower

The offspring has a short plant which means it has both t allele or recessive allele for the height of a plant by the cross of a true-breeding purple and true-breeding white:

    P   P

p   Pp Pp

p   Pp Pp

This means the offspring would have a heterozygous case for the genotype of the flower of the pea plant

Thus, the correct answer is ttPp

Approximately 60% of human genes are also found in fruit flies. About 97.5% of human genes are also found in mice. What does thi
tatyana61 [14]

This evidence suggest that all three living creatures that are mentioned have a common ancestor, even though they have been split into different types of groups of living organism millions of years ago.

Science suggests that all of the living organisms on the planet have a common ancestor. Since we are talking about a common ancestor that lived few hundred million years ago, the living organisms split into different groups, and they do not resemble each other nowadays. The fruit fly is an insect, and the humans and mice are mammals, so they are into totally different groups, and it is easy to see by the genetic evidence that they are very distantly related, but the humans and mice are much more closely related because they belong to the same super family, and their connection is much more recent.

Why is one mutation not enough to result in cancer​
Lena [83]

Answer:

A single mutation is unlikely to result in cancer. Cancer is usually caused by a series of mutations that accumulate throughout the course of a person's life. As a result, cancer is more common in older adults. They've seen more chances for mutations to accumulate.

A preganglionic sympathetic fiber traveling to the abdomen would synapse in which structures?
juin [17]

Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

The nerve fibres of the autonomic nervous system that connects the ganglia to the the central nervous system are called preganglionic fibres. They are divided into sympathetic preganglionic fibres and parasympathetic preganglionic fibres and both have acetylcholine as their neurotransmitter.

The sympathetic preganglionic is shorter compared to the parasympathetic preganglionic fibres. They originate from the hypothalamus and brainstem and project to the ganglia non the spinal cord. A ganglion is a cluster of nerves outside the central nervous system.

The preganglionic sympathetic fibres originating from T1-T2 innervate the cervical ganglion which innervates the muscles of the pupils (dilators).

The postganglionic fibres originating from the preganglionic fibres of T11-L3 passes through splenic, celiac and mesenteric ganglia to innervate the kidneys and renal vessels.
