Answer:

Explanation:

The network of fibres present in the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell is called cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton is of three types.

a) The three cytoskeletons are microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments.

b) Microtubules are cylindrical fibres and are made of tubulin protein, microfilaments are thread-like protein fibres made of actin protein and intermediate filaments are made of different types of proteins, among them keratin is the main protein.

c) Microtubules determines the shape of the cells, microtubules are associated with contraction of muscles and intermediate filaments provide tensile strength for the cell.

fiasKO [112]
When a cell divides, each daughter cell must receive its full complement of genetic material in the form of chromosomes containing DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid. A chromosome is made up of two long strands of DNA and several types of proteins . A DNA strand is composed of a long backbone of sugar and phosphate units . One of our different nucleotide bases -- A, T, C or G -- hang off each sugar unit. The sequence of the bases encodes genetic information. The three steps in the process of DNA replication are initiation, elongation and termination

It is possible to use molecular genetic techniques to characterize the T cells found in psoriasis plaques and compare them to th
babymother [125]

Answer:

According to what has been investigated the option that should be supported by more scientific evidence: In psoriasis plaques, there are fewer T-cell clones, but there are often a large number of T-cells representing only a small number of clones (this is called oligoclonal expansion).

Explanation:

Oligoclonal expansion does not occur only in this pathology, it also occurs in other recurrent diseases such as multiple sclerosis, this phenomenon is widely studied and little discovered in some aspects and is mainly based on both tcd4 and tcd8 and b lymphocytes.

In this case, the presence of ltcd4 in psoriasis is very versatile and depends on the patient's immune response, which is why more scientific evidence is needed on this topic, based mostly on meta-analyzes.

Hi,

Let us get an introduction of the problem first, Incomplete dominance is a pattern of inheritance in which, offspring from the cross of two parents shows a phenotype that is not like either parent but in between both.

For example: Let us take the example of Oompah's hair that can be either red or purple or blue. As described in the question, Red is dominant so let us denote allele for Red hair with R. The other hair color is blue that is recessive, let us denote its allele with r. Now, there is another intermediate phenotype that is purple, let us denote it with Rr because it is derived through a combination of R and r.

Now, here is the key for all possible genotypes and phenotypes of Oompahs. There are only three possible genotypes and phenotypes for the hair color.

Genotype: Phenotype

RR             : Red hair

Rr              : purple hair

rr                : Blue hair

This is because no allele can fully express itself over the other. So is we cross a red hair Oompah with Blue hair Oompah, let us see what will happen:

                                                  RR x rr

Gametes:                              r        and        R

                                       rr:     Rr :     Rr     :  RR

It means that 25 % of the offspring will have red hair, 50% will have contain purple hair and 25 % will have blue hair.

RR:              Red hair      25%

Rr:               Purple hair   50 %

rr:                 Blue hair     25%

Hope it helps!
