Biology

Leona [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

c increasing rhe number of green belts

Explanation:

Green belt may seem to limit the expansion of the city, but a more important effect is to keep the surrounding watershed vegetated to stop erosion and improve the water supply, and produce a cooling effect for the city in summers, and hopefully increase the rainfall in arid areas.

Two autosomal genes, J and K, are 60 map units apart. You perform the following testcross: J K / j k x j k / j k. At what freque
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  • J K / j k = 20%
  • j k / j k = 20%
  • J k / j k = 30%
  • j K / j k = 30%                

Explanation:

To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.

So, en the exposed example:

  • J and K are autosomal genes
  • J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
  • 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.

Cross)             J K / j k                    x                  j k / j k

Gametes) JK  Parental                                     jk, jk, jk, jk

                jk   Parental                                  

                Jk   Recombinant                          

                 jK   Recombinant

One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.

1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination

60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination

                              30% Jk  +  30% jK

100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.

40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)

                            20% JK   +   20% jk

Punnet Square)           JK       jk      Jk      jK

                          jk     JK/jk   jk/jk   Jk/jk   jK/jk

J K / j k = 20%

j k / j k = 20%

J k / j k = 30%

j K / j k = 30%

An enzyme contains a catalytic histidine residue in its active site that must release an R group proton to solution in order to
hjlf

Options missing:

a) The pH of the environment should be relatively high.

b) The pH of the environment should be relatively low.

c) The pH of the environment would not matter.

d) The environment should be set to the biochemical standard state.

Answer:

a) The pH of the environment should be relatively high.

Explanation:

For optimal function an enzyme needs a certain environment or condition. As temperature increases, the rate of enzyme activity also increases. As temperature increases toward its optimum point of 37 degrees Celsius (98.6 F), hydrogen bonds relax and make it easier for the hydrogen peroxide molecules to bind to the catalase.

The part of the enzyme where this reaction takes place is called the active site. A temperature that is higher or lower than this optimum point changes the shape of the active site and stops the enzyme from working. This process is called denaturation.

Enzyme pH levels also change the shape of the active site and affect the rate of enzyme activity. Each enzyme has its own optimal range of pH in which it works most effectively. In humans, catalase works only between pH 7 and pH 11. If the pH level is lower than 7 or higher than 11, the enzyme becomes denaturated and loses its structure. The liver sustains a neutral pH of about 7, which creates the best environment for catalase and other enzymes.

General acid catalysis would require histidine to be protonated at pH values (pH 8.0) optimal for enzymatic activity which is relatively high.
