Phenotype - short , Tall

Genotype - tt (short) , TT or Tt (tall)

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Mendelian Genetics, <em>Dominant traits</em> are represented by capital letters and <em>Recessive traits</em> are represented by small letters.

So if height is the character considered, then the traits would be short and tall.

Tall is the dominant phenotype and short is the recessive phenotype.

The alleles of the gene for height are T and t.

The genotype for Tall trait is TT or Tt.

The genotype for short trait is tt.

Therefore, the symbol representation of phenotype (Tall) is TT or Tt and for phenotype (short) is tt.

Based on the information in the passage, pdk1 catalyzes the addition of phosphate to what functional group
White raven [17]
PDK1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1) is an enzyme which inactivates the pyruvate dehydrogenase by phosphorylating it using an ATP molecule<span>.

</span><span>PDK1 (phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1) acts by catalyzing the phosphorylation of Thr-229 (threonine at position 229 in pyruvate dehydrogenase).

This phosphorylation is </span><span>synergistic</span> with the phosphorylation of C-terminal Thr-389, but this one is not done by the PDK1.

Which best describes the relationship between population size, carrying capacity, and limiting factors?
myrzilka [38]

Answer: The correct answer is- C.

Carrying capacity can be described as the maximum number of organisms belonging to a particular species that can be sustained by resources present in the area.

Due to the presence of limiting factors ( such as food, water, weather conditions), the size of a population usually stays near its carrying capacity.

This is because initially population experience rapid growth but later on due the limiting factor ( environmental factor that causes decline in the population) it will decline and then stabilize near the carrying capacity.

Thus, population size stays near the carrying capacity because of limiting factors.
