A scientist conducted an investigation about the effects of diet on disease resistance in mice and made surprising observations.

The mice with a genetic ear mutation seemed to show similar patterns of resistance compared to mice with normal ears. Based on this information, what will the scientist most likely do next?

Explanation:

When there is alteration in the DNA sequence in the chromosomes of an organisms which affects the protein expression and therefore the organism involved,the genetic condition is called mutation. its effects can be positive or negative,But,negative effects is most common.

It can be germline in which the genes is affected,or somatic in which the protein expression of the body cell is affected.

Answer:

The fact that the mice with genetic mutation shows similar patterns of inheritance show that some genes in the mice might be playing a dominant role in  diseases resistance in this animals.This is evident since the patterns were peculiar to  mice with mutated ears,and not observed in normal ears.

Therefore the experiment should be carried out again to confirm the influence of these genes on the resistance

Compare and contrast saturated and unsaturated fats
gogolik [260]
Saturated fats are bonded together by single bonds, are found in animals, and are solid at room temperature; unsaturated fats are bonded together by double bonds that create a “kink”/bend, are found in plants, and are liquid or oil at room temperature.

The multiple nuclei in skeletal muscle cells are the result of the
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Fusion of embryonic myoblasts, each having its own nucleus to many other myoblasts to form the multinucleated skeletal muscle fibers.

Explanation:

The multiple nuclei in skeletal muscle cells are as a result of fusion of embryonic myoblasts, each having its own nucleus to many other myoblasts to form the multinucleated skeletal muscle fibers. This gives rise to multiple copies of genes, allowing production of the large amounts of proteins and enzymes and ATPs needed for muscle contraction.

After performing a gram stain of a mixed culture of gram positive and gram negative cells, you shout: "oops, i forgot the iodine
zalisa [80]

Gram's staining is a differential staining technique that employs a primary stain like crystal violet and a counter stain like safranin along with the decolourizing agent alcohol and a mordant called the Gram's iodine.

Iodine is a mordant added after the primary stain. It fixes the stain by combining with it to enchance the staining ability. This forms an insoluble crystal violet iodine complex appearing purple under the microscope. These microorganisms are classified as Gram positive.

If addition of iodine is skipped, crystal violet is not fixed on the slide and the insoluble complex is not formed. The cells are decolourized by alcohol and are stained by the counter stain safranin making the Gram positive cells wrongly indentified as Gram negative due to its pink colouration. Thus, the slide will show all the cells as pink coloured Gram negative cells.
