Answer:
The correct answer would be - d. With the end of genetic isolation gene flow took place
Explanation:
It is given that people of Troublesome Creek Kentucky were isolated and have a rare recessive allele that results in a blue tone to their skin. However, later these isolated people connected with the people from outside, and due which allow them to intermate. Intermating among populations from isolated and people from outside leads to gene flow.
Methemoglobinemia was present in the isolated population as they had both recessive alleles in their genotype and other hand people from outside might have heterozygous or both dominant allele genotypes that make them free from this disorder.
Due to the intermating and gene flow, the number of heterozygous conditions rises and after many generations slowly methemoglobinemia could have disappeared due to the masked recessive allele.
Answer:
the oxygen concentration decreases only when the air reaches the alveoli, which are the terminal branches of the respiratory system
Explanation:
The human respiratory system is responsible for taking in oxygen-rich air, and they expelling oxygen-poor air. The respiratory system consists of lungs, which helps in the exchange of gases: Oxygen and carbon dioxide.
The statement ''the oxygen concentration decreases only when the air reaches the alveoli, which are the terminal branches of the respiratory system'' explains the change in oxygen concentration of the inspired air
Answer:
Enzyme- Peptidase/protease
Explanation:
According to this question, a student is conducting an experiment to determine the roles of molecules in metabolic processes such as digestion. Based on what she found out that the molecule, which itself can be broken down into amino acids, can also break down proteins into amino acids, this suggests that the molecule being described is a PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME.
This is because an enzyme is made up of proteins which can be denatured or broken down into its simplest unit (amino acids) and also, a substance that breaks down amino acid is said to be PROTEOLYTIC.
However, another observation that the molecule is found in high concentrations in the small intestine was made, hence, the enzyme is a PEPTIDASE OR PROTEASE, which are secreted into the small intestine by the pancreas to aid digestion of proteins.
How does molecular size effect to the permeability of the membrane to that molecules?
Answer:
Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, which are not found within animal cells.
