Answer: option D
In generalized transduction, any DNA can be moved while in specialized transduction certain DNA from the phage site is moved.
Explanation:
Transduction is the process where foreign DNA is added to a cell by a virus or viral vector.
Transduction is divided into two, generalized and specialized.
Generalized transduction is a process where any DNA can be transferred by the virus in the cell while specialized transduction is a process where a fragment of the DNA near the phage site can be moved.
Answer:
Glucose
Explanation:
The brain is an energy-hungry organ. Despite comprising only 2 percent of the body’s weight, the brain gobbles up more than 20 percent of daily energy intake. Because the brain demands such high amounts of energy, the foods we consume greatly affect brain function, including everything from learning and memory to emotions.
Just like other cells in the body, brain cells use a form of sugar called glucose to fuel cellular activities. This energy comes from the foods we consume daily and is regularly delivered to brain cells (called neurons) through the blood.
Studies suggest the quality of the foods consumed over a lifetime affects the structure and function of the brain. For instance, the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids found in fish provides structural material to maintain neurons. Studies also suggest omega-3 fatty acids are essential for the transmission of information between brain cells. In contrast, foods that are rich in sugars and saturated fats have been found to promote oxidative stress, which leads to damage to cell membranes.
The food you eat also affects molecules in the brain that support cognition. Some foods, such as those with turmeric, support cognition by helping to maintain molecular events related to energy metabolism.
Recent studies suggest lifestyle choices that affect the metabolism of nerve cells, such as diet and exercise, may in some cases provide a non-invasive and effective strategy to counteract neurological and cognitive disorders.
He w<span>ould not have seen segregation of alleles and so would not have Mendel's Law of Segregation.
A dihybrid cross would give in the F2 a ratio of 3:1 instead of 9:3:3:1.(assuming no crossing over) </span>
The flagella of the eukaryotes is composed of the doublet microtubules. The central bundle of these microtubules is known as the anoxeme. In an axoneme, a single pair of the singlet micortubules is surrounded by the nine doublet microtubules. When the plasma membrane of the flagellum is opened to expose the axoneme, and the radial spokes are broken, it will lead to the elongation of the axoneme,
Answer:
The main function of the RB protein is to inhibit the transition from the G1 to S phase. Its activity depends on its phosphorylation state: if RB is not phosphorylated (active state), it is bound to the transcription factor E2F, preventing its translocation to the nucleus and the activation of genes necessary for DNA synthesis; and if it is phosphorylated, by cyclin-CDK complexes, E2F is released and cell proliferation occurs.
Explanation:
Retinoblastoma (Rb) was the first tumor suppressor described and, as we know today, mutations in its structure determine a large number of cancers. Structurally, we speak of a large and multifunctional protein; which is organized in different domains. The activity of this protein is regulated, mainly, by phosphorylation at multiple sites described over the years and is involved in control mechanisms of the cell cycle, apoptosis and senescence.
