Biology

Kryger [21]3 years ago
3 0
I believe the main purpose of wildlife (movement) corridors is to connect two otherwise isolated populations. Wildlife corridors are links of wildlife habitat that joins tow or more larger areas of similar wildlife habitat. They are very critical for the maintenance of ecological processes such as allowing the movement of animals and the continuation of viable populations.

Compare and contrast a thunderstorm and a hurricane.
Nadya [2.5K]

Hurricanes develop in the ocean and go through many phases before being called a hurricane. They have high winds, and rain that can be deadly. Thunderstorms usually develop over land and consist of some wind (sometimes deadly, but not often) rain, and lightening. Thunderstorms are not nearly as dangerous as hurricanes.

When the gene encoding a certain cytoskeleton protein is deleted, the resulting mutant cells round up and do not form their norm
Sophie [7]

Answer: N-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP)

Explanation:

Protein synthesis takes place in ribosomes located in the cell cytoplasm, in which amino acids are transported by transfer RNA corresponding to each amino acid to the messenger RNA where they bind in the appropriate position to form new proteins. <u>The messenger RNA has a sequence of nucleotides that are translated into protein, as each codon (set of three amino acids) codes for one amino acid</u>.

Genes are the storage units of genetic information, so they are segments of DNA that contain the information on how the cells of the organism should function. Each gene codes for a protein, so if a gene is damaged or absent, the protein will not be obtained. In this case, mutant cells with a deleted gene, will round up and wont form their normal appendages. This mutation can be rescued or repaired with a gene that encodes an N-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion of the protein. The N-terminal end is the amino-terminal end and it refers to the end of a protein that ends with an amino acid that has a free amino group. The C-terminus or carboxyl-terminus is the end of a protein that ends in a carboxyl group. The convention for writing peptides is to place the C-terminal end to the right and write the sequence from the N- to the C-terminal end. So, when an N-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion of the protein is expressed, the gene will produce the protein with a GFP tag.

<u>GFP is Green Fluorescent Protein</u>, and it is a protein produced by the jellyfish <em>Aequorea victoria</em> t<u>hat emits bioluminescence in the green region of the visible spectrum</u>. When a gene is fused to another gene (at either the N- or C-terminus, although in this case it is the N-terminus), the entire messenger RNA is translated together as if it were a single fused protein. <u>Thereby, since the protein will be produce with a GFP tag, it can be seen under the microscope and it will be apropiate to use in studying cellular localization and activity.</u>

There are some considerations that this problem does not question, such as that there must be a start codon for protein synthesis and a stop codon, and this stop codon must not be in the middle of the gene or between the gene and the GFP tag.

in what way does the use of neuroimaging overcome ethical constraints in studying the live, intact human brain
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

it allows scientists to look at and examine the brain without having to operate on a patient. considering all that could go wrong with brain surgery, neuroimaging is a safer alternative and is more conductive to education, as the scans can be shared and compared.

2.) Would a plant grow better in a room painted blue or in a room painted green? Explain your answer.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

A blue room

Explanation:

Green light is the least effective for plants because they are themselves green due to the pigment Chlorophyll.. Blue light helps encourage vegetative leaf growth, and red light encourages flowers. this happens because the amount of blue, red and far red spectrum of light that reaches the planet changes with the seasons. As days start to get longer, more blue spectrum light reaches the surface of the earth. This initiates a vegetative growing stage for most plants leading into the spring and early summer. As the days start to grow shorter, and more of the red and far red spectrum reaches the surface, it leads into the late summer and fall reproductive season.

Explain how cell division allows changes in the DNA of a zygote to be inherited by future generations
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

When cell divides, the DNA will replicate in the parent cell or make copies of itself and this will make the chromatics to split or divide in order to create a new cell or daughter cell which contain the exact same DNA. The daughter cell then pass these DNA to subsequent generations, when it also undergo cell division and the dna is been replicated
