which enzyme is responsible for creating the covalent bonds that connect the sugar phosphate backbone of the new Dna molecules

1 answer:

8 0

DNA polymerase is the enzyme that joins the new nucleotides, and therefore creates the covalent bonds that connect the sugar phosphate backbone of the new DNA molecules.

Explain why the sperm cells differ from other cells in the male

Serga [27]

sperms are gametes (reproductive cells) which have half the number of chromosomes (22 autosomes +1 sex chromosome) .Those cells have 23 chromosomes only as their nucleuse fuses *during fertilization* with the ovum's nucleuse which has 23 chromosomes as well . Also it has a special structure which makes it adapted for movement since it's a mobile cell

narvez 5. Everyone in Dobby's family has a long nose and they brag that they are from a purebred line. Viola has a stubby nose.

mote1985 [20]

Assuming a single diallelic gene coding for the trait and expressing complete dominance, the phenotypes, genotypes, and probabilities of getting each of them vary according to the parentals' genotypes. See the options below.

---------------------------------

Since I do not have the genotypes from #2, I will provide different potential scenarios for this question.

I advise you to check on them and see which one matches the genotype from #2.

Let us assume a single diallelic gene is coding for the trait and expresses complete dominance.

<h3 /><h3>SCENARIO 1 ⇒ long nose is the dominant trait</h3>

Let us say that

L is the dominant allele and codes for long nose

l is the recessive allele and codes for stubby nose

Since long nose is dominant over stubby nose

LL and Ll ⇒ long nose

ll ⇒ stubby nose

If Dobby comes from a purebred family and has long nose, his genotype must be LL.

And if Viola has stubbi nose, her genotype must be ll.

Cross 1

Parentals) LL x ll

Gametes) L L l l

Punnett square) L L

l Ll Ll

F1) Genotype ⇒ 100% heter0zyg0us Ll

Phenotype ⇒ 100% long-nosed

There is 100% chances for a child to have a long nose

There is 0% chances for a child to have a stubby nose

These children are not purebred

**********

<h3>SCENARIO 2 ⇒ Stubby nose is the dominant trait</h3>

Let us say that

S is the dominant allele and codes for stubby nose

s is the recessive allele and codes for long nose

Since stubby nose is dominant over long nose

SS and Ss ⇒ stubby nose

ss ⇒ long nose

If Dobby comes from a purebred family and has long nose, his genotype must be ss.

And if Viola has stubbi nose, her genotype must be either SS or Ss.

There are two possible crosses.

Cross 1 : Violet is h0m0zyg0us dominant SS

Parentals) SS x ss

Gametes) S S s s

Punnett square) S S

s Ss Ss

F1) Genotype ⇒ 100% heter0zyg0us Ss

Phenotype ⇒ 100% stubby-nosed

There is 100% chances for a child to have a stubby nose

There is 0% chances for a child to have a long nose

These children are not purebred

Cross 2: Violet is heter0zyg0us, Ss

Parentals) Ss x ss

Gametes) S s s s

Punnett square) S s

s Ss ss

F1) Genotype ⇒ 50% heter0zyg0us Ss and 50% h0m0zyg0us recessive ss

Phenotype ⇒ 50% stubby-nosed and 50% long-nosed

There is 50% chances for a child to have a stubby nose

There is 50% chances for a child to have a long nose

These children are not purebred

Parathyroid hormone is the major regulator of the plasma concentration of__________ ions

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a hormone that is secreted by the parathyroid gland. It is the major regulator of the plasma concentration of calcium ions. It regulates calcium ions in the kidney, intestine and bones.

In the kidney, is involved in the re-absorption of calcium in distal ducts and the renal collecting duct, it is also involved in activating the conversion of 25-hydroxy vitamin D into 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (calcitriol).

In the intestine, PTH is involved in the absorption of calcium, by increasing vitamin D production.

In the bone, it helps in regulating calcium levels; when serum calcium level is low, PTH stimulates the activity of the osteoclast, to produce more calcium.

HELP PLEASE DUE SOON

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Adding a lake near any town will most likely increase rainfall because of the added water, and water vapor levels will also increase. Because of the excess water in the environment, more water will be found in the surrounding atmosphere (the same reason precipitation will increase in the area.)
