Answer:
B) a nonsense mutation; this is because a nonsense mutation results in the change of a regular amino acid codon into a stop codon, which ceases translation. This fits with the problem's description of the protein that causes the symptoms as too short, as translation is the process by which proteins/polypeptides are created. A missense mutation would not be the answer because it still codes for an amino acid, which would not shorten the protein. A duplication of the gene would probably just lengthen the protein or not affect its length at all.
Answer:
Dopamine.
Explanation:
Cocaine is used as a recreational drug and addictive in nature. It can be smelled or directly inhaled in the veins. This drug causes the feeling of restless and happiness.
The dopamine is the important neurotransmitters that regulates the mood and other biological activity of the body. The cocaine inhibit the reuptake of dopamine and leads to its accumulation in the brain. This might also break the blood brain barrier.
Thus, the answer is dopamine.
1. shut down the factory
This is a suggestion that will not be implemented simply due to the fact that the factory is likely to be bringing profits and meeting the requirements of a specific product or products. Shutting the factory down will mean great losses, which makes this suggestion non-feasible.
2. Move the factory out of the city
First, "moving" a factory is not as easy as it sounds. For a factory to be set up, many factors are considered such as the availability of raw materials and transport cost. Moreover, the emissions will still not be lessened if the factory is simply moved.
3. Increase the height of the factory's chimney
If these emissions are harming the nearby environment, this suggestion will help to reduce those effects. However, the negative effects will inevitably occur if there is a high level of emission of sulfur dioxide occurring, such as acid rain. Therefore, this does not solve the problem, only changes its nature.
Answer:
M phase: 4.8 hr
Prophase: 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 0.84 hr
Telophase: 0.6 hr
Explanation:
Mitosis, also known as M phase, is the process of nuclear division after interphase, which is followed by cytoplasmic division via cytokinesis. Mitosis can be subdivided into the following phases: Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. In this case, 160 cells are in interphase (for a total of 200 cells), thereby 40 cells are in mitosis >> 200 - 160 = 40 cells. Since the complete cell cycle requires 24 hours, it is possible to calculate the average duration of each phase:
M phase: 40/200 = 0.2 x 24 hr = 4.8 hr
Prophase: 20/200 = 0.1 x 24 hr = 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 6/200 = 0.030 x 24 hr = 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 2/200 = 0.01 x 24 hr = 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 7/200 = 0.035 x 24 hr = 0.84 hr
Telophase: 5/200 = 0.025 x 24 hr = 0.6 hr
Answer:
D. archaeal membranes contain L-glycerol.
Explanation:
Archaea and eubacteria differ from each other with respect to the nature of membrane lipids. Lipids present in the membranes of the archaeans have the hydrocarbons derived from isoprene units. These hydrocarbons are branched and are attached to the glycerol with help of ether linkage. Ester linkages are present in eubacteria. The glycerol present in the archaeans is L- glycerol. Bacterial membranes have D-glycerol present in their lipids.
