It is possible for a cell to make proteins that last for months; hemoglobin in red blood cells is a good example. however, many

proteins are not this long-lasting. they may be degraded in days or even hours. why do you think cells make proteins with such short lifetimes if it is possible to make them last longer?

The cells of the body are perfectly capable of making proteins with a life span of many months, still the cells make proteins which are short-lived. On one hand, they make proteins like hemoglobin having a life span of approximately 120 days, and on the other hand, it makes proteins with life span of few days, such as a tumor suppressor protein. The short lived proteins have their own advantage, as they allow the cells to control their function, and amount precisely.

fertilization comes first
it is followed by cleavage which is the rapid cellular division which forms the blastula
then comes gastrulation where the 3 germ layers are formed.
followed by organogenesis which consists first forms the organs and then comes the specialization
Therefore your answer would be B

In a hypothetical population of plants, flower color is determined by a single gene with two alleles. In a population of 500 pla
blondinia [14]

Answer:

In the F1 generation

RR = 0%

Rr = 50% (or 0.5)

rr = 50% (or 0.5)

Explanation:

A pink flowering plant has the genotype Rr. It is heterozygous for the allele. The alleles for this gene appears to show incomplete dominance, as the heterozygous phenotype is a blend of the two homozygous genotypes.

A white flowering plant has the genotype rr. It is homozyogous for the white allele

A punnet square of the cross is shown.

The resulting punnet square shows that only Rr and rr genotypes are possible, at a ratio of 50:50 (or 1:1). Therefore, the genotype frequency of Rr is 50%, and rr is 50% in the F1 generation. This can also be written as 0.5. It is not possible to get a red plant, as the genotype RR can not come from this cross

serious [3.7K]
B. Gene expression is in them is similar to us but facilitates the use of bacteria in recombiant biotechnology and gene therapy.
We human have eukaryotic cells which have a devoloped nucleas whereas small bacteria have prokaryotic cells with no definite nucleus using more biotechnology. Other all are not true.
