"Cells in the lining of the stomach produce a protein called pepsinogen. When this protein is released into the chamber of the s

tomach, the stomach acid cleaves off a section of the protein, which now becomes an enzyme called pepsin. In this form, pepsin will actively begin the breakdown of proteins in food. This is an example of which type of eukaryotic gene regulation?"

This is an example of Precursor gene regulation (protein translation) type of eukaryotic gene regulation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The source which breakdown proteins into smaller amino acid is pepsin and generated as top cells within stomach lining or membrane, responsible for pepsinogen emission inside stomach. It is represented as zymogen having an extra 44 amino acids linkage as its primary structure. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) releases this zymogen which is emitted from the parietal cells in the stomach lining.

Once food is consumed, the hormone gastrine and the vagus nerve cause the secretion of both pepsinogen and HCl from the stomach lining. Hydrochloric acid induces an acidic environment that allows pepsinogen to unfold in an autocatalytic manner and thus generates pepsin the active form.

Which of the following does not represent a common outcome following introduction of foreign DNA into a bacterial cell?Choose on
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The correct option is A, since if the DNA enters in a circular form it is called a plasmid, and the plasmids upon entering the bacteria self-replicate outside the genetic structure, which gives the bacteria better survival qualities.

Explanation:

Plasmids are generally circular extrachromosomal DNA molecules that replicate and transmit independently of chromosomal DNA, and are normally present in bacteria, archaea, and sometimes in eukaryotic organisms such as yeast. Its size varies from 3 to 10 kb. The number of plasmids can vary, depending on their type, from a single copy to a few hundred per cell. Plasmid vectors allow cloning of exogenous DNA ligands of up to 4 kb since a larger size than this makes cloning in these vectors difficult. The term plasmid was first introduced by the American molecular biologist Joshua Lederberg in 1952. Plasmids can only coexist as one or more copies in each bacterium, due to cell division they can be lost in one of the secreted bacteria.

Answer:

Cohesive forces are responsible for surface tension, a phenomenon that results in the tendency of a liquid’s surface to resist rupture when placed under tension or stress. Water molecules at the surface (at the water-air interface) will form

Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that affect every water molecule on Earth and also the interaction of water molecules with molecules of other substances.

A population of white moths lives in a forest near a factory. this factory burns coal and pollutes the air with black dust. over
marissa [1.9K]
The answer to your question is option b

This is because if the trees are black, and covered with soot due to the pollution, caused by industrialisation, the white moths will be easily seen and constantly hunted by the predator, compared with the black moth population as they camouflage easily. Ultimately, the white moths would be hunted to such an extent that their population would dramatically decrease
