There is a theoretical protein called largeX that helps to stimulate growth of the body during adolescence. The promoter on the

lrgX gene that codes for it normally can have a protein bind to it that promotes transcription called Largene. Largene, bound to the promoter, can receive yet another signal in the form of largeXase—a protein that changes the conformation of largene so that it can no longer bind to the promoter. Predict what would happen to an individual if he or she began expressing a lower level of largene than normal at puberty. The individual would show
a. degradation of lrgX

b. a smaller phenotype than others

c. an abnormally large height

d. an alternative form of largeX

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "a smaller phenotype than others".

Explanation:

Largene acts as a transcription factor that promotes the transcription of lrgX, a gene that is translated into a protein that stimulate growth of the body during adolescence. In this scenario, if an individual expresses a lower level of largene than normal at puberty, the individual will have a smaller phenotype than others. A lower level of largene will result in a lower level of transcription of lrgX, affecting the stimulation of the body's growth.

Answer:

b) a smaller phenotype than others

Explanation:

In the above scenario, Largene is a protein which is a transcription factor bind to promoter to increase the expression of lrgX gene and ultimately translateed the largeX protein which will help in the growth of body during adolescence.

So, if there will be low level of expression of largene than normal, it will not bind to promoter effectively or the largeXase can change the conformation of largene which will directly affect the promoter region because promoter will not activate more due to lower level of largene and at the result there will be very low level of expression of lrgX gene. Then largeX protein will be low and it will definitely affect the growth of body during puberty. The growth will be slower than other normal persons.

So, smaller phenotype will be observed than other normal ones.

Answer:

The ocean continued to shrink until, about 270 million years ago, the continents that were ances tral to North America and Africa collided. Huge masses of rocks were pushed west ward along the margin of North America and piled up to form the mountains that are now the Appalachians. Well, mountains are limited in their theoretical height by several processes. First is called isostasy the bigger a mountain gets, the more it weighs down its tectonic plate, so it sinks lower. The second is called glacial buzzsaw the taller and colder a peak, the faster snow and ice will wear it down/away.

Explanation:

Hope that helps you.

When placed in a hypotonic solution, water moves into the cell through an aquaporin channel. this is an example of?
Vinil7 [7]

Water can move into the cell through simple diffusion and through osmosis when the concentration of water outside the cell is lower than inside through aquaporins.

Aquaporins, also known as water channels, are channel proteins that produce pores in the membrane of living cells, primarily aiding the passage of water between cells and known as plumbing systems of the cell. They are part of a wider family of important intrinsic proteins. Aquaporins are proteins that allow water to enter and exit cells more quickly than through the phospholipid bilayer in a range of bacteria, fungal, animal, and plant cell membranes.
