Answer:

The promoter region/sequence

Explanation:

Promoter sequences/region is where the transcription factors and RNA polymerase must attach before the gene can be transcribed. SO if we mutate this sequence, the transcription factors and RNA polymerase won't recognize it thus would not attach and transcribe the targeted gene.

Providing immunity by injecting the body with a weakened form a pathogen is known as
blagie [28]

Answer:

vaccination

Explanation:

The vaccination has been one of the most revolutionary inventions in the medical field. This invention helped protect people from numerous diseases, some being totally neutralized, while some having only minor effects on the human body. The vaccination basically is a way of enhancing the immune system of the body by injecting in it a weakened form of the pathogen. In this way, the weakened form of the pathogen is not capable to harm the body, and the body is not fighting against it, but instead the pathogen becomes part of the body and its defense mechanism, so when the pathogen strikes, the body has a counter attack and defeats it.

For this question, we will utilize a population of Martians that is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium. The dominant Martian phenotyp
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

d.0.48

Explanation:

When a population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium the <u>genotypic </u>frequencies are:

freq (AA) = p²

freq (Aa) = 2pq

freq (aa) = q²

<em>p</em> is the frequency of the dominant <em>A</em> allele and <em>q</em> is the frequency of the recessive <em>a</em> allele.

In this population of 100 individuals, 84 martians have the dominant phenotype and 16 have the recessive phenotype.

Therefore:

q²=16/100

q² = 0.16

q=√0.16

q = 0.4

And p+q=1, so:

p = 1 - q

p = 1-0.4

p = 0.6

The frequency of heterozygotes is:

freq (Aa) = 2pq = 2 × 0.4 × 0.6

freq (Aa) = 0.48

For the first time in five years California authorities have issued a first stage smog alert, warning people in some areas of un
Ghella [55]

One reasonable plan would be to wear a face mask or surgical mask. Take note that your surgical mask contains two sides – the white side and the blue side. Since the main purpose of your mask usage is to prevent yourself from inhaling too much bad air, the blue side of the mask should be the one touching your skin. This is because the white side of your mask helps you prevent from coming in contact with toxins that may come from the smog.
