Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a.

Explanation:

  • A Diploid organism possess two copies ( also called alleles) of each  autosomal gene, of which one copy of the gene is obtained from one of its parents and the other copy from its other parent.
  • During the process of replication, one of the alleles of the GTPase encoding gene undergoes a mis-sense mutation.
  • A Mis-sense mutation can be defined as a non-synonymous mutation in which one of the nucleotide in the sequence of the gene gets altered such that it causes a change in the amino acid encoded by the codon (triplet nucleotide message encoding for a single amino acid)  formed by the mutated nucleotide. A single amino acid change in the protein, if occurs in the functional site of the protein, can render a protein non-functional.
  • Hence, the mis-sense mutation in one of the alleles encoding for the GTPase gene causes the resulting protein produced from the mutated allele to have drastically reduced function (1%).
  • A heterozygous cell is one which has one copy of the normal allele and the other copy of the mutated allele of the GTPase encoding gene.
  • As one copy of the normal GTPase allele is present in such an individual, it can produce the normal GTPase protein that can assist in the process of cell growth and division.
  • Hence, the phenotype(expressed character) of  the heterozygous cell will not be affected due to the mutation and it will be able to grow and divide normally.

Summarize the advantages and disadvantages of using the following to help protect endangered species:
diamong [38]

Answer: Advantages: These locations are used to preserve different forms of plants and animals, both aquatic and non aquatic for a long time and to keep endangered species from going extinct.

Disadvantages: The proper facilities that would be needed for storing these animals could be very expensive. In other words, it requires alot of money. Secondly, animals and plants need to be properly tended to and this can be very time consuming.

What is the concentration of a suspension that grew 89 colonies on a plate with a dilution of 1:100?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

8900 CFU/mL

Explanation:

Colony Forming Units (CFU) is a value that indicates the degree of microbiological contamination of an environment. It expresses the relative number of microorganisms of a given taxon in a volume of one cubic meter of water.

UFC is the minimum number of separable cells on the surface, or inside, of a semi-solid agar medium that results in the development of a visible colony of the order of tens of millions of descending cells. The CFUs can be pairs, chains or clusters, as well as individual cells. Colony forming unit.

Calculation

Colonies * Dilution = CFU/mL

89          *  (100/ 1 mL) = CFU/mL

8900 CFU/mL

Why does the temperature of ocean water remain relatively constant, despite large fluctuations in air temperature? A) Ocean wate
tatiyna
The answer is B. The specific heat means the heat amount the substance needs to absorb when the temperature increases 1℃. The high specific heat means that it needs a huge amount of heat when increase just 1℃. For A, the dissolved salts can help decrease the freezing point.

Which statement below describes a feature that is shared between kinesin and dynein? a. Both proteins "walk" towards the (+) end
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

C)Both proteins bind ATP and F-actin

*C option is not mentioned* there is a flaw in the question

Explanation:

Two families of motor proteins, kinesin and dynein, transport membrane-bounded vesicles, proteins, and organelles along microtubules. Nearly all kinesins move cargo toward the (+) end of microtubules (anterograde transport), whereas dyneins transport cargo toward the (−) end (retrograde transport).While

both the protiens have globular ATP-binding heads that function as the motor domain and interact with the microtubules.
