<span>The second statement is correct. Viruses can infect all cellular life forms, but each cellular species
can be infected by own limited specific range of viruses. Most viruses that harm
animals can not harm humans. But, some viruses can infect different species of mammals, for example both
bats and humans can be infected be rabies.</span>
Answer:
b
Explanation:
because an object is in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
The question is:
What may be observed as a result of the described mutation in an individual?
<span>1) Skin cancer due to UV rays </span>
<span>2) Darker blue pigmentation </span>
<span>3) A lack of alterase for other functions it may serve </span>
<span>4) The release of a different pigment color
The correct answer is B.
In this theoretical molecular cascade, we have three key parts, the blue2 gene, the blue2 operator and the enzyme alterase.
The enzyme alterase stops the expression of the blue2 gene by binding to its operator, and therefore the blue pigment protein.
The blue2 operator has a specific binding spot for alterase. If this binding spot is changed due to a conformational change, the alterase would not be able to bind to the operator and the blue2 gene could express undisturbedly, resulting in increased concentration of the blue pigment protein.</span>
Answer:
In the given case, the protein would have required to go through the process of post-translational modification, however, the mentioned protein would have been cultured in the prokaryotic system, the process of post-translational modification would have failed to take place. This step would be essential for the functionality of the protein. Thus, there is a need to culture it within the eukaryotic system.
The covalent and generally the enzymatic modification of proteins post its biosynthesis is termed as post-translational modification.
