Imagine that two protein kinases, PK1 and PK2, act sequentially in an intracellular signaling pathway. When either kinase is com

pletely inactivated, the cells don’t respond to the signal. Doubly mutant cells that contain inactivated PK2 and permanently active PK1 respond in the absence of a signal. In the normal signaling pathway, does PK1 activate PK2 or does PK2 activate PK1? What outcome would you have predicted for a doubly mutant cell line with an activating mutation in PK2 and an inactivating mutation in PK1?

Answer:

See details below

Explanation:

We know for sure that PK2 activates PK1 in a significantly signaling pathway. This is mainly because PK1 is permanently activated as a independent response which is observed in the status of PK2, by indicating that PK2 is fully activated downstream of PK1.

In the case that based on observation and experience, a setup were modified in a such a way PK1 was mutationally inactive and PK2 carried an activating mutation, we would not find any response observed since PK2 would not be able to activate PK1. The most importantly is that the logic is whether you discuss that PK1 activated PK2, I  responded to this question part mainly based on this sequence.

Identify the phenotypes for the offspring of a parent with the genotype IBi and a parent with the genotype IAIA. type O type A,
agasfer [191]
 <span>I is dominant, i is recessive. The A's and B's are just show which allele I is. When there is just one dominant allele, it masks the recessive in blood typing. Remember IA and IB are codominant. 

O is always ii 
A is IAi (heterozygous) or IAIA (homozygous) 
B is IBi (heterozygous) or IBIB (homozygous) 
AB is always IAIB 

Remember: You get one allele from each parent! 

1. Father must be ii, mother must be ii, so all children must be ii. 

2. Father is IAIA (the homozygous one), the mother is IBIB, so the only possibility for the children is IAIB, because you get one allele from the father and one from the mother. 

3. Father is IAi, mother is IBi, so the children can be any of the blood types, because they can have all the combinations of genotypes. 

4. Father is ii, mother is IAIB. Children can only be IAi or IBi. 

5. Father is IAIB, mother is IAIB. Children can be IAIA, IBIB, or IAIB. 

Example of Punnett square: 
3. Father is type A, heterozygous, mother is type B, heterozygous 
Father must be IAi (heterozygous) 
Mother must be IBi (heterozygous) 

_______IA ____ i 

IB____ IBIA____IBi 

i _____ IAi______ii 

Sorry, that was difficult on here, hope it's understandable. 
The father's alleles run across the top, the mother's are on the side, you follow to where they meet to find the possibilities for the children. IBIA (AB blood type), IBi (B), IAi (A), and ii (O) are the possibilities in this case. 

Hope that helps!</span>

If humans had been present to build log structures during the Carboniferous period (though they were not!), which plant types wo
aliina [53]

Answer:

The plant types suitable during that period would be ferns, horsetails, and lycopods.

Explanation:

A geologic period and system, which covers 60 million years from the termination of the Devonian period to the start of the Permian period is known as the Carboniferous period. During the Carboniferous period, the plant life was luxuriant and extensive, mainly at the time of Pennsylvanian. It comprises ferns and fernlike trees, that is, the giant horsetails known as club mosses, calamites, or lycopods like Sigillaria and Lepidodendron.  

Thus, if humans had been present to construct log structures during the Carboniferous period, then they would have used logs of ferns, horsetails, and lycopods for construction work.
