Answer:
When a warmer air mass travels over colder ground, the bottom layer of air cools and, because of its high density, is trapped near the ground. In general, cold air masses tend to flow toward the equator and warm air masses tend to flow toward the poles. This brings heat to cold areas and cools down areas that are warm
Question:
A---enzyme A------>B----enzyme B------>C
Refer to the metabolic pathway illustrated above. If A, B, and C are all required for growth, a strain that is mutant for the gene-encoding enzyme A would be able to grow on medium supplemented with _____.
A) nutrient A only
B) nutrient B only
C) nutrient C only
D) nutrients A and C
Answer:
B) nutrient B only
Explanation:
The mutant has a mutation in the gene that codes for the enzyme A. Therefore, this mutant would not be able to convert the substance A into B. Without the presence of substance B, the final product can not be formed. However, if the mutant is supplemented with the substrate "B", it can convert the B into the final product (substance C). Therefore, the mutant would be able to grow in the medium to which the already prepared substance B has been added.
The answers, respectively, are:
resting potential; action potential.
