A total of 52 total chromosomes would be present in an intestinal cell from a platypus. Two copies of each chromosome will be found in the somatic cell of the platypus. Ten of the chromosomes will be the sex chromosomes.
ATP only stores energy for a short period of time while starch stores it for a longer period of time.
Answer
Operons are cluster of coordinated genes, including structural genes, an operator gene, and a regulatory gene.
Explanation:
In the The repressible operons, The transcription is usually on and repressor is in inactive form, So the specific genes are transcribed. While a regulatory molecule act as corepressor and binds to repressor protein to activate it. The repressor protein cause the inactivation of repressible operon (as the name indicate). E.g., Tryptophan Repress the trp operon.
A high level of product act as regulatory molecule (Corepressor) and turn off the operon, So anabolic pathways or synthesis of essential components are controlled by repressible operon.
In the Inducible operons, the transcription is usually off and repressor is in active form. So there is no transcription of genes. Specific Metabolite cause the activation of operon e.g lactose cause the induction of lac operon.
As a metabolite induces the operon, So they control the Metabolic pathways or breakdown of a neutrient.
Answer:
only females
Explanation:
In humans, sex chromosomes in males and females are different. The sex chromosomes found in humans are X and Y chromosomes. X-linked trait is a trait which is inherited on the X- chromosome. According to the question, the trait is passed on a X-linked dominant condition, which means the condition is inherited on the abnormal dominant X-chromosome that will express itself even when in an heterozygous state with a normal X-chromosome.
Hence, a father affected by the condition will have a genotype; XY while a mother that does not have the condition will have a genotype: xx (two normal x chromosomes). Since the Father can only pass his X chromosome to his daughters and never his sons, all his daughters will inherit the condition (see the punnet square in attached image).
N.B: None of the sons will inherit the condition since the mother will pass normal X-chromosomes (x) to her sons.
