<u>Complete Question:</u>

The body determines whether certain genes should be expressed or not. Sometimes genes are only turned on once or twice in a lifetime. Which example best illustrates this point?

A. milk-producing hormone after childbirth .

B. insulin after eating .

C. adrenaline when scared or in danger.

<u>Correct Option:</u>

The milk-producing hormone after childbirth  is the example which best illustrates the above given point.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The development of mammalian glands occurs during pregnancy. After giving birth to a child the breast begins to grow in size. Just copious milk is generated after delivery, which is typically achieved with the help of milk hormone. Throughout pregnancy, the production of milk is hindered by the estrogen and progesterone that makes its way in the blood stream, which in effect prevents the secretion of prolactin from the pituitary gland, thereby making the mammary glands uncooperative. Thus the hormone for generation of milk after childbirth is not frequent in one's lifetime.

Sort the following events into two categories:________.
Amanda [17]

Answers:

a) carcinogenic

b) anti-carcinogenic

c) carcinogenic

d) carcinogenic

e) carcinogenic

f) anti-carcinogenic

g) anti-carcinogenic

h) anti-carcinogenic

Explanation:

Cyclins are proteins that regulate the progression through the cell cycle, i.e., the transition of G1 to S phase. It is well known that high cyclin expression may lead to cell proliferation states, which is closely associated with cancer progression. Moreover, the blockage of cyclins may have an anti-carcinogenic effect by inhibiting the progression through the cell cycle. MAP kinases are serine/threonine kinases that regulate the progression through the cell cycle by phosphorylating a variety of substrates during cell proliferation. In consequence, phosphatases that inactivate MAPK kinases (i.e., by dephosphorylation) may have an anticarcinogenic effect. The p53 is a tumor suppressor protein involved in diverse cellular processes including DNA repair, cycle arrest and programmed cell death. This protein (p53) is activated by phosphorylation at target residues and phosphatases inactivate it, thereby the blockage of its degradation may have an anticarcinogenic effect. Oncogene activation (i.e., the expression of oncogenes), may alter diverse cellular processes including DNA replication, and thereby may lead to cancer development. The G-protein α subunit is a GTPase that hydrolyses GTP and thus has a major role in controlling the kinetics of the G-protein signaling cascade. Platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFR) are kinase receptors that play roles in regulating cellular differentiation, cell proliferation and cell growth. PDGFR receptors are present on the surface of normal cells, however, it has been shown that mutations of the PDGFR genes that lead to their high expression lead to uncontrolled cell growth and consequently cause cancer (i.e., by increasing PDGF signaling).

8. Two rabbits are bred together. One is heterozygous for agouti coat
dusya [7]

Answer:

- Parental cross = Cch  x chch  

- F1 = 1/2 Cch (agouti coat); 1/2 chch (albino coat) >> 1:1 phenotypic ratio

Punnett  square:  

          ch         ch

C       Cch       Cch

ch    chch      chch

 

Explanation:

A heterozygous individual is an individual who has two different gene variants (i.e., alleles) at a particular <em>locus</em>. In this case, individuals having the "agouti coat" trait are heterozygous carrying both 'C' and 'ch' alleles. On the other hand, a homo-zygous individual has the same allele at a given <em>locus</em> (here, the 'chch' genotype associated with the albino phenotype). Therefore, as observed in the Punnett Square above, when a heterozygous parent is crossed with a homo-zygous recessive parent for a single gene, alleles segregate in the gametes of both parents so an expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed.
