Question 1:
Exons are gene fragments whose DNA sequence after transcription is found in mature mRNAs. This part of the gene is most often coding.
The size of the exons in the genomes follows a log-normal distribution, with an average length of about 150 nucleotides, knowing that in eukaryotes, each gene contains several exons and introns (an average of 8) so the size is 8*150 = 1200 bp.
Question 2:
Introns are fragment of a gene located between two exons. Introns are present in immature mRNA and absent in mature mRNA. "Non-coding" fragment of the gene.
The introns average in a gene is 3365 bp including 3'UTR and 5'UTR and intermediate introns.
Answer:
Enzymes create chemical reactions in the body. They actually speed up the rate of a chemical reaction to help support life. The enzymes in your body help to perform very important tasks. These include building muscle, destroying toxins, and breaking down food particles during digestion.
Explanation:
Answer:
One method used by newborn mammals to generate heat is referred to as nonshivering thermogenesis. This method utilizes a protein channel called <u>thermogenin</u> which is present in high levels inside the mitochondria of <u>brown adipose tissue.</u>
Explanation:
Thermogenin forms a proton channel in the inner mitochondrial membrane in the brown adipose tissues. Most of the newborn mammals have these brown adipose tissues. In these tissues, the oxidation of nutrients do not produce ATP but generate heat. The heat is used by the newborn to maintain the warmer body temperature. The process is called nonshivering thermogenesis.
Its not dumb. Sweetie I don't even know
Answer:
A
AB
Explanation:
This question involves blood type, which can either be blood type A, B, AB or O in humans. Alleles A (iA) and B (iB) are co-dominant but dominant over allele O (i).
According to this question, a mom who is heterozygous for type B blood i.e. genotype iBi, has a baby with type AB blood. Since the mother contributed the "B" allele, it means that the father contributed the A allele. Only a father with genotype: iAi or iAiA (type A) or iAiB (type AB) can produce such allele.
