Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "They only introduce supercoiling and cannot relax a covalently closed circular DNA".

Explanation:

Type II topoisomerases are enzymes that regulate the winding an unwinding of DNA during DNA replication. Basically, these enzymes are the scissor that remove the knots and tangles formed during the replication process. Is false to affirm that type II topoisomerases only introduce supercoiling and cannot relax a covalently closed circular DNA. Bacterial type II DNA topoisomerases work with the circular DNA of bacterium by changing the linking number of circular DNA by ±2.

Susan, a mother with Type B blood, has a child with Type B blood. She claims that Craig, who has

laiz [17]

Answer:

A child with type B blood can have a mother with type B blood and a father with type O blood so the judge grants her request and decides due to Susan is right and Craig must pay child support (option b).

Explanation:

Susan is right in this case because her son with type B blood may have a mother with type B blood and a father with type O blood.

Blood types, according to the ABO system, depend on the existence of surface antigens A or B —Types A, B and AB— or their absence in the erythrocyte membrane.

In the inheritance of blood groups A and B are co-dominant, while the absence of antigens —type O— is a recessive trait.

Assuming that Susan has a genotype B/B and that Craig has a genotype O/O:

Alleles O O

B B/O B/O

B B/O B/O

So it is very likely that the child is Craig's son and Susan is right.
