All animals with eyes or the eyespots that have been studied so far share a gene in common. When the gene causes lack of eyes in

fruit files, tiny eyes in mice, and missing irises (and other eye parts) in humans. The sequences in humans and mice is identical. There are so few sequences differences with fruit fly that the human/increases version can cause eye formation in eyeless fruit files, even though and last shared a common than 500 million years ago. Pax-6 usually causes the production of a type of light-receptor pigment. In vertebrate eyes, though a different gene (the rh gene family) is responsible for the light-receptor pigments of the retina. The rh gene, like Pax-6, is ancient. In marine ragworm, for example, the rh gene causes production of clock-opsin, which helps regulate the worm's biological clock. Which of these most likely accounts for vertebrate vision? A) In animals more ancient than ragworms, the rh gene(s) coded for visual receptor pigments: in lineages more recent than ran ragworms rh has flip-flopped several times between producing biological clock opsins and visual receptor pigments. B) The Pax-6 gene mutated to become the rh gene among early mammals. C) During vertebrate evolution, the rh for biological clock was co-opted as a gene for visual receptor pigments. D) Pax-6 was lost from the mammalian genome and replaced by the rh gene much later.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

PAX5 refers to the member of the Pax gene family, which is, accountable for conducting the genetic information, which will encode the Pax-6 protein. It functions as a master control gene for the maturation of eyes and other sensory organs. Pax6 functions as a regulator in the formation of patterns and coordination needed for the proliferation and differentiation to take place effectively. This ensures that the procedures of oculogenesis and neurogenesis are taking place efficiently.  

The PAX6 gene was the outcome of evolution in earlier animals comprising eyespots or eyes. The similar PAX6 gene generates distinct kinds of eyes in distinct species because of the difference in its control of PAX6 expression. At the time of the evolution of vertebrates, the biological clock opsin’s rh gene was chosen as a gene for visual receptor pigments.

What membrane activities requires energy from atp hydrolysis?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

active transport, like Na + ions leaving the cell

Explanation:

The active transport requires an energy expenditure to transport the molecule from one side of the membrane to the other, but the active transport is the only one that can transport molecules against a concentration gradient, just as the diffusion facilitated the active transport is limited by the number of transport proteins present.

Two major categories of active, primary and secondary transport are of interest. The primary active transport uses energy (generally obtained from ATP hydrolysis), at the level of the same membrane protein producing a conformational change that results in the transport of a molecule through the protein.

The best known example is the Na + / K + pump. The Na + / K + pump performs a countertransport ("antyport") transports K + into the cell and Na + outside it, at the same time, spending on the ATP process.

The secondary active transport uses energy to establish a gradient across the cell membrane, and then uses that gradient to transport a molecule of interest against its concentration gradient.

2. In the citric acid cycle, malate is oxidized to oxaloacetate by the enzyme malate dehydrogenase, which uses NAD+ as an electr
atroni [7]

Answer:

NAD+ act both as coenzyme as well as electron acceptor compound and get reduced to NADH by accepting electron.

Explanation:

NAD+ act as co enzyme of various biological catalyst such as malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase etc.

             NAD+ can act as co enzyme only in its oxidized form but not in its reduced form called NADH.

         Many reaction needs NAD+ to occur such as conversion of glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate to 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate, malate to oxaloacetate.

              That"s why NAD+/NADH ratio is kept very high because if this ratio bychance get  low then it will hamper the normal redox potential of NAD+/NADH.As a result many biochemical reaction will not take place.
