In the mouse, gene B can produce black pigment from a colorless precursor molecule. A mouse having at least one B allele can pro

duce black pigment, whereas the homozygous recessive mouse (bb) cannot and is albino. The agouti locus (A) can convert the black pigment to brown in the presence of at least one dominant A allele, whereas the homozygous recessive (aa) cannot convert the black pigment to brown. What color fur would a mouse have with the genotype aaBB

Answer:Black

Explanation:

Since the genotype is aaBB

aa- is a reccessive Allele that cannot concert black to brown hence not expressed while BB is a dominant Allele for Black fur color. BB that is dominant for black fur will be expressed in the mouse fur and it will have a black fur color

Answer:

Black

Explanation:

In the mouse a certain colorless pigment precursor exists.

  • If the B allele is present: precursor is converted into black pigment.
  • If the genotype is bb: albino

In addition:

  • If the A allele is present: black pigment is converted to brown pigment
  • If the genotype is aa: black pigment is not converted and mouse remains black

If the mouse has a genotype aaBB, the colorless pigment is converted to black (because there is at least one B allele) but the black pigment cannot be converted into brown (because there's no A allele), so the mouse will have black fur,

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

a. PPOs are denatured at high temperature

Explanation:

Polyphenol oxidase, PPO, is one of the most studied enzymes in the food industry as it is responsible for enzymatic browning reactions in fruits and vegetables. One of the reasons why its study is important is because commercially it is undesirable, since it modifies the sensory, nutritional and in general quality properties that impair the commercialization of a product.

The importance of controlling polyphenol oxidase is that it largely determines the quality and economic value of fruits and vegetables harvested, stored and processed. Bruising, chopping and other mechanical procedures damage the walls of fruits and vegetables which allows oxygen to penetrate, resulting in darkening or enzymatic browning reactions.

Enzymatic browning can be controlled through the use of chemical and physical methods, often used in combination. The commonly used physical methods are the reduction of temperature, oxygen and the use of modified atmospheres or coating films. The use of chemical methods will depend on what you want to inhibit, be it the enzyme, the substrate (oxygen or phenolic compounds) or the products.

Think of a deer in the woods that has just relieved itself by urinating. Number the steps to follow the nitrogen molecules in th
IRINA_888 [86]
The molecules of nitrogen in the urine are broken down into ammonium. - Step 5 ("Nitrogen is found in the urine, which gets broken down into ammonium through the process of ammonification<span>.")
Then, ammonium is converted into nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. - Step 1 ("</span><span>Ammonium can be absorbed by plants, but some is converted into nitrates which are better for plants to absorb. This is called nitrification.")
There are then two ways that the cycle can take... in the one related to the deer, follows the assimilation where the plants add the nitrogen to protein. - Step 6 ("</span><span>Plants absorb the ammonium and begin assimilation, the process to add the nitrogen to protein.")
The deer then eats the plants and the nitrogen is again inside it and ready to be used and again released in urine. - Step 2 ("</span><span>The deer eats the plants and uses the nitrogen-containing proteins for cell growth.")

The other way that the nitrogen may take is denitrification by denitrifying bacteria. - Step 4 ("</span><span>Some of the nitrates are absorbed back into plants, but denitrification breaks down the nitrates into nitrogen gas released back into the atmosphere.")
This gas is then captured by nitrogen fixing bacteria, called nitrogen fixation. - Step 3 ("</span><span>Bacteria in the soil conduct nitrogen fixation to convert nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into ammonium.")
The ammonium is now ready again for t</span>he process of ammonification.
