Explain how a mutated DMD gene can result in the inability to walk​

Biology
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal DMD gene provides the instructions to make normal dystrophin protein.  

® Normal dystrophin in muscle cells  ® Normal muscles and  normal health  

Mutated DMD gene does not provide the instructions to make functional dystrophin.  

®  

No functional dystrophin  in muscle cells  

®  

Muscle cells break down, so  child loses the ability to walk, develops heart problems, and typically dies as a young adult.

Cathy placed a sample of yeast , a single celled eukaryotes, in a closed test tube containing a solution of glucose. How will th
maxonik [38]
Yeast is very similar to human cells in that we have the same cellular respiration process. The formula for cellular respiration is C6H12O6(Glucose) + O2(Oxygen) = CO2(Carbon dioxide) + H2O
Because of this we know that the yeast is going to take oxygen from the air and the glucose in the test tube and produce carbon dioxide with it, so the full answer would be “The composition of the air in the test tube would change so that there is a higher composition of CO2.” If you need to explain it more pull from my explanation :)

As a ribosome translocates along an mrna molecule by one codon, what happens after it?
erastova [34]

Answer:

The tRNA is released from the E site of the ribosome and the elongation process finishes while the termination process starts.

Explanation:

When the translocation process is finished the tRNA that is in the E site  of the ribosome is released and the A site of the ribosome reads a stop codon in the mRNA in order to finish the elongation process and start with the termination process.  In the termination process  a termination factor joins the stop codon, the ribosomal subunits split apart, the protein and the tRNA dissociate from one another and the tARN is not in the P site of the ribosome anymore.

In rabbits, black fur (B) is dominant to white fur (b). A purebred black furred male is bred with a female that had the recessiv
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

All the offsprings will be black-furred (Bb)

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for fur length in rabbits. The allele for black fur (B) is dominant to the allele for white fur (b). This means that a rabbit heterozygous for this gene (Bb) will have a black fur.

According to this question, a purebred black furred male (BB) is bred with a female that had the recessive white fur (bb). The parents will produce gametes as follows:

BB - B only

bb - b only

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the genotypic proportion of the produced offsprings is as follows:

Bb, Bb, Bb, Bb

All Bb (heterozygous) means that all of the offsprings will be black-furred.
