The answer is All of these for m<span>utagens cause changes (mutations) in the genetic material of cells. Teratogens cause irreversible, deleterious structural malformations in fetuses. Carcinogens cause cancerous tumors with a characteristically crablike appearance.</span>

The right answer is D.

The 3 are effects that the toxin can have on an organism.

A mutagenic toxin is capable of producing mutations in living organisms (eg 5-bromo-uracil).

A cancerogenic toxin is able to cause or promote cancer in an individual who consumes it (example: benzene).

A teratogenic toxin can produce congenital malformations, ie when a pregnant woman consumes this toxin, the new born may have a malformation at birth (example: thalidomide).

Consider a cross between a man with an X-linked recessive disorder and a woman that's a carrier for the disorder. Approximately
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the X linked allele "a" gives the disorder. Therefore, the genotype of the affected man would be X^aY while the genotype of the carrier woman would be X^aX. A cross between X^aY man and X^aX woman would produce progeny in following phenotype ratio: 1 affected daughter: 1 affected son: 1 normal but carrier daughter: 1 normal son.

Therefore, there are 50% chances that their children can express the disorder.

In E. Coli, the gene laci codes the lac operon repressor. Which of the following statements is true about an E.coli strain, whic
kow [346]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A.

Explanation:

Lac operon is a set of genes arranged sequentially for lactose metabolism in E.coli. The lac operon gets activated in the presence of lactose as the lac operon consists of three enzyme coding genes called lacZ which codes for the β-galactosidase enzyme, lacY which codes for lactose permease, lacA which codes for acetyltransferase along with a regulatory gene called lacI which codes for repressor proteins.

The repressor proteins bind to the operator and control the transcription. When it binds to operator its huts off the transcription. If a mutation occurs in the laci gene then the protein will lose the machinery which will turn off the activity of enzymes and will lead to the constitutive expression of the genes irrespective of the inducer present or not.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
