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.

Sperm tails in the fruit fly Drosophila bifurca can reach up to 6cm long, which is over 20 times the length of the organism itse
spayn [35]

Explanation:

The length of the sperm in a few species is much larger or giant than the size of the animal-like observed in the <em>Drosophila bifurca. </em>

In this fruit-fly, the tails of the sperm are too long which could be accounted for many reasons:

1. The sexual selection prefers the long tails over the small tail.

2. The large sperms can displace the small sperms in the female reproductive organ.

3. The female reproductive organ increases the promiscuity of the large sperms that is favour the large sperms over the small sperms.

What is a control value?
Inga [223]

Answer:

The value of control is a quantitative measure of the value of controlling the outcome of an uncertain variable. Decision analysis provides a means for calculating the value of both perfect and imperfect control. The former value, informally known as the value of wizardry, is an upper bound for the latter. Obtaining meaningful value-of-control measurements requires an awareness of important restrictions (concerning the nature of free will and the meaning of counterfactual statements) on the validity of this kind of analysis.

Which situation would not encourage competition?
torisob [31]

A long, wet season results in additional earthworms in a robin habitat.

Explanation:

A long, wet season resulting in additional earthworms in a robin habitat will not lead to competition in an ecosystem or area.

Competition between organisms is the struggle for limited resources in the environment that are beneficial to all lives.

  • Competition is usually driven by shortages and lack of resources to make life better in the ecosystem.
  • When resources becomes depleted and are in limited amount organisms will begin to strive among on another to develop advantages that would make them top out.
  • A long, wet season resulting in the introduction of additional earthworms in a robin habitat is not an example of competition.
  • The earthworms available is a limiting factor and this has been circumvented by the introduction of more earthworms during the prolonged wet season.

Which tool enhances weather forecasts by enabling monitoring, which is necessary for predicting global weather and environmental
kotegsom [21]

The correct answer is - satellite.

The satellites are something that is crucial for the functioning of the modern day world in pretty much all aspects. They are also very important in the climatology and meteorology. The satellites are able to monitor the whole planet, thus through them it can easily be seen where the air masses are moving, what type of air masses are moving towards where, their speed of the air masses, is there clouds, and if there is where are they moving, formation of large storms etc. ll of these information from the monitoring of the satellites go to the weather stations, where the weather forecasts are made, and than through the media reach the people all over the world.

How are the bryophytes and seedless vascular plants alike? how are the bryophytes and seedless vascular plants alike? plants in
Dahasolnce [82]
I believe in both groups , the sperm swim from antheridia to aronia. Both are tied to water by swimming sperm that require water to reach eggs. Neither of them has pollen, seeds, flowers, or fruits. Seedless vascular plants, however, have xylem and phloem, which bryophytes lack. For seedless vascular plants Cells in diploid sporophyte such as fern from undergo meiosis, releasing haploid spores that germinate and develop into gametophytes. Bryophytes reproduce sexually by forming sperm and egg cells within separate haploid male and female gametophytes.
