1. What is the relationship between chromosomes and DNA? The chromosome is a molecule formed by a chain of DNA associated with proteins. Together, they form a group of molecules directly responsible for heredity.

2. What is heredity? It is the biological process where the genes present in a DNA are transmitted by parents to their children, through the division of gametes. These genes carry the codes that form the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, which allows a similarity between parents and children to occur.

3. What is the role of proteins associated with the DNA molecule that makes up the gene? Proteins are responsible for keeping the DNA line tightly compressed, maintaining the chromosome structure. In addition, they control the activities of the genes present in this DNA molecule, being essential in maintaining heredity.

4. How do chromosomes participate in gene transmission? As mentioned above, genes are part of DNA and DNA is the molecule that makes up chromosomes, in this case, chromosomes are molecules loaded with genes. In the human body, cells have 46 pairs of chromosomes, with the exception of gametes that have half that number. During the reproductive process, the gametes (reproductive cells) divide and produce a new being. The mother's gametes unite with the father's gametes to form a new being. Each gamete has 23 chromosomes, which contain the genes responsible for transmitting the characteristics.

Consider a helminthic infection in which an individual is colonized by a parasitic worm. The worm is too big to be engulfed by a
Assoli18 [71]

Answer

The worm gets coated with antibodies, which activate other cells in the immune system to secrete chemicals that kill it.

Explanation:

Production of T-helper I cytokines like IFN gamma, IL-2 and IL-18 is highly protective against helminth infection by activating the macrophage intracellular killers. Protection against mucosal eosinophil responses in which antiparasitic chemicals are released. Killing also involves direct cytotoxic mechanisms in which T- cell and NK-cells directly release antiparasitic agents like perforin and granulysin which kill the parasite.

Bear pigmentation is subject to epistasis of the B alleles by the d alleles. B (black) is dominant over b (brown). D is dominant
White raven [17]

Answer:

9/16 black, 3/16 brown, 4/16 white

Explanation:

             BD         Bd          bD         bd

BD     BBDD      BBDd     BbDD     BbDd

Bd      BBDd      BBdd     BbDd      Bbdd

bD      BbDD     BbDd      bbDD     bbDd

bd       BbDd    Bbdd       bbDd     bbdd

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to predict the genotype as well as the phenotypes of the offsprings of a cross.

To study the epistatis nature of the pigmentation in bear, a punnet square was made and the results of the punnet square are shown above.

The results of the punnet square show that the cross between two bears will have the chances of producing 9/16 black bears, 3/16 brown bears and 4/16 white bears.

The Energetics of Coupled Transport
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. False - A symporter system requires that one of the molecules to be transported using passive transport.

B. True - The Na+ will move down the established concentration gradient releasing energy to facilitate movement of sucrose against its concentration gradient. This is known as secondary active transport.

C.  False -  sucrose moves through ion channels not by diffusion to better control its movement across the membrane.

D. True - Movement of molecules against their concentration gradient thus requiring energy input is known as active transport.

E. False - One of the molecules needs to be moving against its concentration gradient.

F. False - A Uniporter system allows the binding and transport of a single molecule at a time. A symporter allows simultaneous binding and transport of Na+ and sucrose molecules.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The population of light colour Peppered moths decreases and dark Peppered moths increases.

Explanation:

During the industrial revolution, the population of light colour Peppered moths decreases and dark Peppered moths increases because due to industrial revolution, air pollution increases which spreads a black dust on the trees and as a result the light colour Peppered moths can easily be seen in the dark by its predator and feed on them while dark colour Peppered moths can't be seen in the dark so the predator is unable to feed and as a result the population of dark colour Peppered moths increases.
