Air must pass from the back to the front of the pharynx to enter the trachea and food must pass from the front to the back of the esophagus
Answer:
Analogous structures
Explanation:
These structures are similar but not derived from the common ancestor like homologous structures. Analogous structures are formed as a result of convergent evolution-type of evolution in which organisms develop on similar way but independently. An example of analogous structures are wings. Birds, insects and bats all have wings, with the same purpose (flight) but they evolved in their own way.
Answer:
d) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.
Explanation:
This occurs in the process of Glycogenolysis. The process involves breaking down of glycogen to glucose -1- phosphate and glycogen which helps in the release of glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia(low blood sugar). The glucose-1-phosphate is later converted to glucose -6-phosphate. The latter enters the glycolytic pathway in which the reaction is catalysed by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.
This homeostatic glucose regulation is regulated by the protein kinase(PKA)/ cAMP pathway in the skeletal muscles, the liver and the pancreas.
Use binomial distribution with p=0.25, n=5, x=2
P(X=x)=C(n,x)p^x (1-p)^(n-x)
P(X=2)=C(5,2) 0.25^2 0.75^(5-2)
=10*0.0625*0.421875
=0.26367
So the probability of 2 of 5 children having type-O blood from these parents is 0.26367.
