"Facilitative transporter of glucose" is not a role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR).

<u>Option:</u> B

<u>Explanation:</u>

A protein and chloride pathway of membrane, in vertebrates encoded with the CFTR gene is understood as "Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)". The CFTR gene codes for an ABC-class transporter ion channel protein that conducts chloride ions through epithelial membranes of cells.

The protein helps to keep the salt and water equilibrium on many surfaces in the body, including the lung surface. When the protein doesn't work properly, chloride — a salt part — gets trapped in cells.

A pure-breeding fruit fly with curled wings mates with a pure-breeding fruit fly with normal (straight) wings. The F1 mate with
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The dominant curled wing allele is also a recessive lethal.

Explanation:

If we look at the F2 ratio we see that :  

curled wings: straight wings= 160:80

                                               =2:1

Hence,  if curled wings is considered to be a dominant trait then Curled wings * straight wings

Dd x dd

Punnet square will be as follows :

           d                    d

D   |    Dd   |        Dd

d    |    Dd   |        dd

Hence in order to get F2

Dd x dd

Punnet square will be the same as above if the F1 cross is Dd* Dd

        D    d

D DD Dd

d Dd dd

if DD is lethal then the ratio is

Dd:dd=2:1

that is curled wings: straight wings=2:1

Hence, The dominant curled wing allele is also a recessive lethal.
