two springs with constants k1 and k2 are in a series Using the fact that force balance must apply everywhere, what is the equiva

lent spring constant of a single spring? That is, if you had to swap out a single spring for the two springs that are in series, what would its spring constant need to be to generate the same force at any displacement?

Explanation:

Let the spring constant of two springs are k₁ and k₂. In series combination of springs, the equivalent of springs is given by :

k_{eff}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{k_1}+\dfrac{1}{k_2}}

So, if it is required to swap out a single spring for the two springs that are in series, the spring constant need to be to generate the same force at any displacement is,

\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{k_1}+\dfrac{1}{k_2}}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Is the binding of a transcription factor to its dna recognition sequence necessary and sufficient for an initiation of transcrip
hram777 [196]

Transcription factors are necessary for an initiation of transcription at a regulated gene but not sufficient.

Transcription is the first step of gene expression in which DNA molecule is copied (transcribed) into RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase. The process of transcription is divided into three phases:

1. Initiation

• RNA polymerase with transcriptional factors bind to gene promoter Transcription factors can enhance the interaction between RNA polymerase and a DNA sequence- promoter, encouraging the expression of the gene. Such transcription factors are called activators. Otherwise, when the gene expression is inhibited, factors are called repressors and they bind to sequence –operator.

• RNA polymerase unwinds DNA double helix (transcription bubble is formed)

2. Elongation

• RNA polymerases adds nucleotides complementary to DNA  

3. Termination

• RNA polymerase gets to stop codon (transcribes a sequence of DNA known as a terminator)

• Formed complementary RNA strand is released from DNA-RNA complex

Natural selection is the process by which favorable traits tend to increase in frequency over time.
Nana76 [90]

Answer: The statement is true

Explanation:

Natural selection, as its name implies refers to the choice of certain favorable traits such as resistance to diseases, bigger fruit size etc above lesser favorable traits such as easy susceptibility to diseases, small fruit size etc.

Hence, nature allows the traits that will help living organisms survive best in their environment to be passed down to new offsprings while it eliminates all other traits.

Thus, the statement is true
