The answer is the hypothalamus. It is a portion of the brain that comprises a quantity of small nuclei with an assortment of functions. One of the most significant purpose of the hypothalamus is to connect the nervous system to the endocrine system through the pituitary gland.

Colored aleurone in the kernels of corn is due to the dominant allele R. The recessive allele r, when homozygous, produces color
Pie

Answer:

The genes are linked, and the arrangement is coupled (one homolog has both dominant alleles; the other homolog has both recessive alleles).

RY / ry

Explanation:

R_= colored aleurone

rr= colorless aeurone

Y_= green plant

yy= yellow plant

They do a testcross between a plant of unknown genotype and phenotype and a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits (yr/yr) the following F1 is obtained:

  • 88 Colored, green (RY/ry)
  • 92 colorless, yellow (ry/ry)
  • 8 colorless, green (rY/ry)
  • 12 colored, yellow (Ry/ry)

If the genes assorted independently, all of the possible offspring phenotypes would appear in the same frequency. However, they obtained 2 phenotypes much more abundant that the other two. Since recombination is a rare event during crossing over, when two genes are linked the recombinant gametes are produced less frequently than the parentals.

We can propose that the phenotypes Colored, green (RY) and colorless yellow (ry) are the parental gametes, and the unknown plant has the arrangement RY/ry, with both genes linked.

What features of integrated pest management make it a good approach to preserving ecosystems?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Allowing a small but controlled portion of a pest population to remain does less damage to ecosystems, soils, water, and air. Another feature of IPM would be making a habitat more complex, such as mazes, so it can slow the spread of parasites. No-till or low-till agriculture is another feature of IPM because this helps natural enemies of some pests to build up in the soil, whereas plowing destroys the habitats of these enemies.

A researcher synthesizes a new molecule called inhibitor X that inhibits the activity of phosphofructokinase (PFK), the enzyme t
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer : The dissociation constant of the PFK‑inhibitor complex is, 5 µM

Explanation :

The expression for reversible competitive inhibition when apparent Km affected by addition of the inhibitor is:

K_m_a=K_m[1+\frac{I}{K_i}]

where,

K_m_a = apparent value = 52 µM

K_m = Michaelis–Menten constant = 40 µM

I = inhibitor concentration = 1.5 µM

K_i = dissociation constant of the PFK‑inhibitor complex

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

52\mu M=40\mu M[1+\frac{1.5\mu M}{K_i}]

K_i=5\mu M

Therefore, the dissociation constant of the PFK‑inhibitor complex is, 5 µM
