Mutations can be categorized based on the kind of effect they have on an organism. Blue eyes in humans are a result of a mutation in the OCA2 gene, which controls the production of pigment melanin in the iris.

This mutation is an example of a neutral mutation. Such mutations have no effect on an organism’s survival.

A researcher claims that the epinephrine signaling pathway controls a catabolic process in muscle cells
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the conversion of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate.

Explanation:

Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes glucose-1-phosphate release by phosphorolysis from the terminal residue of a non-reducing end of a glycogen branch. A molecule of inorganic phosphate attacks the C1 side of a α(14) glycosidic bond, leaving in the glycogen polymer a hydroxyl group on C4.

which component of blood consists of cell fragments and is the main contributor to healing cuts? A. erythrocytes B. thrombocytes
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B. thrombocytes.

Thrombocytes, also called platelets are the components of the blood which play important role in the process of hemostasis.

Hemostasis is the process of preventing the flow of blood from the damaged site or damaged blood vessel. It is the first stage involved in the healing of the wound.

Platelets form the platelet-plug at the site of damage which in turn activates another blood clotting factor fibrinogen.

Fibrinogen gets converted into an active fibrin (insoluble) which forms the meshwork like structure to trap more and more platelets and red blood cells. It results in the formation of a clot which completely seals the cut or damaged site.

This holds an organism's hereditary information. All cells contain the same genetic information before differentiation.
umka2103 [35]

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is macromolecule composed of nucleotides (nitrogen nucleobase, deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group) which carries genetic information (instructions). Instructions within DNA are for development, growth, reproduction and many other functional roles of an organism.


All of the cells within an organism contain the same genome (full set of DNA-chromosomes). When cells begin the process of differentiation (cells become specified) their genome stays the same, but the gene expression  is different (different genes are on or off).
