<span>The juxtaglomerular apparatus is a structure (formed by the distal convoluted tubule and the glomerular afferent arteriole) with the function in the regulation of blood pressure and the filtration rate of the glomerulus. Its primary components are:
</span> <span><span>·     </span>the macula densa- specialized epithelial cells in the distal convoluted tubule (detect Na concentration),
</span> <span><span>·     </span>juxtaglomerular cells- formed from the smooth muscle cells of the afferent arteriole (secrete renin),</span>
<span><span>·     </span>extraglomerular mesangial cells (lacis cells)-unknown function.</span> <span> </span>

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

e. Gain of function mutation in the p53 gene.

Explanation:

A genome can be defined as the complete set of hereditary instructions that is typically found in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

Genome editing can be defined as a high-tech process which avail scientists the opportunity or ability to remove (delete), replace and insert Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) sequence in a living organism such as bacterias, animals, plants etc in order to correct a genetic disorder and to improve on their physical and chemical conditions.

Also, transcription can be defined as a process which typically involves re-writing the informations contained within a Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) into a Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) by enzyme RNA polymerase.

In this scenario, you are reading a science fiction novel about a biotechnologically advanced society where individuals must choose a type of mutations for a future child to have in all its cells before they are born. As an expert biologist who wants a healthy child, you should choose a gain of function mutation in the p53 gene for your future child because they are clinically and biologically distinct.

What are the two types of biological interactions?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

They can be either of the same species (intraspecific interactions), or of different species (interspecific interactions). These effects may be short-term, like pollination and predation, or long-term; both often strongly influence the evolution of the species involved. A long-term interaction is called a symbiosis.
