Answer:

Hypothesis: If there is a rat, THEN an elephant will react differently

Independent variable: Presence or absence of rat

Dependent variable: Elephant's reaction

Conclusion: The hypothesis is accepted because rats make an elephant to react.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a predictive statement about a particular observation made, which is what we're doing next. In this case, a possible statement that suggests solution could be: If there is a rat, THEN an elephant will react differently.

Independent variable is the variable being manipulated in an experiment. The PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF RATS is the independent variable

Dependent variable is the variable that the experimenter measures. In this experiment, the measurable variable/dependent is the ELEPHANT'S REACTION.

Conclusion of an experiment either rejects or accepts the hypothesis depending on the outcome of the experiment. In this, let it be assumed that the conclusion has been accepted

Why does synthetically produced RNase refold incorrectly if the reducing agent is removed before urea removal?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

<h2>Disulfide bonds interaction </h2>

Explanation:

The high concentration of urea causes unfolding of protein and thus results in loss of function of a protein. The urea interacts with the protein and prevents the folding of a protein.
During oxidation, the disulfide bonds that are required for proper functioning and stabilization of protein are formed, while in the presence of urea, the disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly. The protein oxidation results in covalent modification of a protein that results in the change of physical and chemical properties of a protein.
The change of physical and chemical properties of protein after oxidation and in the presence of urea cannot be modified even after the removal of urea. Thus, protein does not fold properly.
Hence the right answer is "disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly rather than week bonding interaction"

Gene expression in eukaryotes can be regulated at many different levels. List the different levels of regulation, and explain wh

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Transcription, mRNA (processing, transport, localization and stability), translation.

Explanation:

Transcription is regulated in two levels, though chromatin regulation (methylation and acetylation) to loose or increase histone's affinity to DNA and through cis and trans elements such as promoters, enhancers, and silencers (cis) to active/deactivate and RNA polymerase and transcription factors and co-factors (trans).
mRNA can be regulated using poly-A tails or 5'-caps to shorten or give them more time before they degrade, it could also be spliced to eliminate introns.
In the translation stage, the regulation occurs during the initiation through a scanning procedure that ensures the 40s ribosomal subunit bind correctly to the untranslated portion of RNA
