What role does the MutL protein play in DNA repair? (5 POINTS) It performs a proofreading function, similar to DNA polymerase, a
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It recognizes and binds to a pair of "mismatched" nucleotides, preventing their translation.

Explanation:

Mut L protein is involved in mismatch DNA repair. MutL protein is complexed with MutS protein and the MutL-MutS complex recognizes all the mismatched base pairs present in the newly formed DNA strand. The complex can not recognize the "C-C" pairs. MutH protein joins the complex.

The MutH protein also has a site-specific endonuclease activity and cleaves the unmethylated DNA strand towards the 5' end of the guanine base in the GATC sequence to mark the strand for DNA repair. In this way, MutL protein, along with MutS and MutH proteins mark the mismatched DNA bases for repair so that they are not translated into a faulty protein.

What are the functions of the larynx and how does it carry out them on a daily basis?
MArishka [77]
The larynx is an nicknamed the "voice box" because it holds the vocal cords inside. It helps change the pitch and volume of our voices as we speak. It is the only part of the body capable of doing this job, so we don't ever want it removed. Our voices would be much more monotone sounding. The larynx connects the pharynx to the trachea in the neck. It is also capable of allowing air through for us to breathe, but does not let anything (food or drink) block the airway. This is obviously a daily function since we eat and drink numerous times daily and usually have no problems breathing while eating and drinking. This is thanks to the larynx.

Hope this helps! :)

N a jungle habitat, there lives a species of snake, called Species A. The carrying capacity of the jungle allows 5000 of Species
OLEGan [10]

Based on the carrying capacity of the habitat and the changes that occurred in number of the two snake species, correct option is They occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources; option D

<h3>What is carrying capacity of a habitat?</h3>

The carrying capacity of a habitat is the maximum number of species the available resources in that habitat can sustain.

The data given of the species of snakes, Species A and Species B, indicate that they are both present in the habitat after a change occurs in the habitat.

Since the population of Species A became zero after Species B was introduced in the habitat, they occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources.

In conclusion, the competition between the species of snakes is responsible for the decline in Species A.
