Answer:
Smoke-induced oxidative stress limited the oxygen-carrying capacity of the previous red blood cells
Explanation:
The red blood cell (RBC) contains hemoglobin which helps in the transport of oxygen. However, the Jane's smoking must have induced oxidative stress to the cells of her body including RBC, thus compromising it's oxygen-carrying capacity.
Hence Jane's body increased RBC count in order to maintain oxygen supply to all cells of her body.

Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?
a) Incomplete dominance
b) Genetic recombination
c) Chimerism
d) Codominance
Answer:
d) codominance
Explanation:
Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.
The correct answer is proteins.
Proteins have four structures; (1) primary, (2) secondary, (3) tertiary, and (4) quaternary. Primary structures of proteins are formation of peptides and the peptide bonds between amino acids. Secondary structures of proteins involves the amino acid composition leading to hydrophobic interactions forming either alpha helices or beta sheets. Interactions between secondary structures of proteins will make the tertiary structure which is either soluble (globular) or insoluble (fibrous) proteins. Quaternary structures are the combination of two or more tertiary structures and these are called subunits.
