In the Ugandan Kob antelope, males aggregate during mating season in certain areas where they form small territories next to eac

h other. Females are attracted to these male aggregations where they compare the quality of the males and finally choose a mate for mating. After mating, females leave this area. What type of polygyny best describes this mating system?

Answer: Lek Polygyny

Explanation:

Polygyny is a mating system inwhich one male is associated with multiple females. This mating system is found in a few birds and insects, but is most common in mammals. Polygyny is a strategy used by males to increase their reproductive fitness.

Lek polygyny is a system where male aggregate at a location and try to attract females for mating and the females leave after mating. It is believed that males attract more mate in this way than in isolation.

In x linked recessive if the mother is carrier and father is normal and their first child is male and is affected the next child
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

A 50% chance I believe. The mother will always give the X chromosome and since the father is normal and doesn't carry that ressecive trait they can only get it from the mother. (I'm not completely sure!))

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.

how do levels of thermal energy and speed differ between low and high friction surfaces? how does this difference relate to a tr
MariettaO [177]

- "This energy is usually in the form of low-level thermal energy. It is only possible to extract work when there is a temperature difference, so low-level thermal velocity; this means that the force of friction and the applied force are equal in magnitude."

- "An energy transformation is the change of energy from one form to another. Energy transformations occur everywhere every second of the day. There are many different forms of energy such as electrical, thermal, nuclear, mechanical, electromagnetic, sound, and chemical."

During digestion, the chemical energy found in our food can be converted to many different forms.

The chemical energy in food can be converted to another form of chemical energy when it is stored as glucose or fat. It can be converted to thermal energy because our body produces heat when disgusting our food.
