<span>The answer is e. Myoglobin has a single polypeptide chain so it has 1o, 2o, 3o and 4o structure.
Myoglobin is an iron and an oxygen binding protein. It has a single polypeptide chain. Proteins with the single polypeptide chain cannot have quaternary (4o) structure. 4o structure of proteins includes an arrangement of multiple folded polypeptide chains (subunits) in a multi-subunit complex. Therefore myoglobin cannot have 4o structure as the single chain polypeptide. All other choices are correct.</span>
The correct answer is organ system level of organization.
Answer:
Petal color in snapdragon is an example of incomplete dominance and deviates from Mendel's law of dominance.
Skin color in humans exhibits a continuous variation and is regulated by more than one genetic loci.
Explanation:
Two alleles of a gene do not always exhibit the dominant-recessive inheritance as shown by Mendel. The alleles controlling the petal color in Snapdragon exhibit incomplete dominance since the allele "R" is not able to produce enough pigment in heterozygous condition to completely mask the effect of the recessive allele "r" Therefore, the heterozygous genotype "Rr" gives pink color to petals.
Mendel showed that each genetic trait is regulated by one gene and exhibit discontinuous variations. This is not followed by skin color in humans which is a polygenic trait with multiple genes regulating it. Here, a range of phenotype is present which is regulated by the sum total of the dominant alleles of all the genes involved controlling the melanin production.
As discussed in Chapter 3, DNA replication is a semiconservative process in which each parental strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary daughter strand. The central enzyme involved is DNA polymerase, which catalyzes the joining of deoxyribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates (dNTPs) to form the growing DNA chain. However, DNA replication is much more complex than a single enzymatic reaction. Other proteins are involved, and proofreading mechanisms are required to ensure that the accuracy of replication is compatible with the low frequency of errors that is needed for cell reproduction. Additional proteins and specific DNA sequences are also needed both to initiate replication and to copy the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes.
