References Chapter 1: Problems Studies of existing cells to determine the minimum number of genes for a living cell have suggest

ed that 206 genes are sufficient. If the ratio of protein-coding genes is the same in this minimal organism as the genes of Escherichia coli (0.980), how many proteins are represented in these 206 genes.

Answer:

201.88 ≈ 202.

Explanation:

Genes are the functional segment of DNA that are responsible for the phenotype and genotype of the organisms. Different number of genes are present in different organisms.

The number of the genes that are sufficient in the living cell is 206.

The ratio of protein-coding genes in Escherichia coli is 0.98.

Number of proteins = No. of genes × Ratio of protein coding genes.

Number of protein = 206 × 0.98

Number of protein=201.88 ≈ 202.

Thus, the answer is 201.88 ≈ 202.

Which is an innovation of gymnosperms?
malfutka [58]

note:

Gymnosperms possess several key evolutionary innovations compared to earlier groups such as the clubmosses and ferns. They produce sperm-containing pollen, which is carried through the air by the wind to the female. This innovation has freed these plants from the need for water for sexual reproduction.

What would make a hypertonic solution isotonic
natulia [17]
Isotonic, Hypotonic, and Hypertonic Solutions. Water moves readily across cell membranes through special protein-lined channels, and if the total concentration of all dissolved solutes is not equal on both sides, there will be net movement of water molecules into or out of the cell.
