PZ120 is not considered to be an enhancer to transcription in the metallothionein 2a gene.
<h3>About metallothionein 2A.</h3>
Metallothionein-2 is a metallothionein protein that in humans is encoded by the MT2A gene.
In human it is expressed in;
- right lobe of liver
- olfactory bulb
- left uterine tube
- external globus pallidus
- right lobe of thyroid gland
- upper lobe of left lung
- Region I of hippocampus proper
- right lung
- left lobe of thyroid gland
It's molecular function are;
- Protein ion binding
- Zinc ion binding
- Metal ion binding
It helps in various biological processes;
- response to metal ion
- cellular response to interleukin-3
- cellular response to erythropoietin
- negative regulation of growth
- cellular response to zinc ion

D) Contour plowing is used to reduce erosion and sediment pollution.
Explanation:
Contour plowing in farming helps to prevent pollution by reducing surface erosion of topsoil and preventing sediment pollution.
Contour plowing is a farming technique in which crops are planted along the slopes of hills or contoured areas.
- The rate at which rain water and precipitation moves along slope terrain is very fast.
- This causes the washing off of the the topsoil on hills to eroded very fast.
- Contour plowing breaks the slope and farming is done along movement on the contour.
- This prevents topsoil erosion.
- It also prevents sediment pollution in nearby streams and water bodies that are located around the valley at the base of the hill.

Answer:
1/4
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disorder and therefore, is expressed only in homozygous recessive genotype. Let's assume that the allele "c" is responsible for the disease in the homozygous state. Since the couple already has a child with cystic fibrosis (cc), they both are heterozygous carriers for the disease.
The genotype of male and female each is "Cc". A cross between Cc x Cc gives progeny in the following phenotype ratio=1/4 diseased: 1/2 normal carriers: 1/4 normal. Therefore, the probability of getting a diseased child for them is 1/4.

In some types of research the target population might be as broad as all humans, but in other types of research the target population might be a smaller group such as teenagers, pre-school children or people who misuse drugs.
It is more or less impossible to study every single person in a target population so psychologists select a sample or sub-group of the population that is likely to be representative of the target population we are interested in.
This is important because we want to generalize from the sample to target population. The more representative the sample, the more confident the researcher can be that the results can be generalized to the target population.
One of the problems that can occur when selecting a sample from a target population is sampling bias. Sampling bias refers to situations where the sample does not reflect the characteristics of the target population.
