J because the desert rarely gets water so it needs to hold it better
While insulin suppresses gluconeogenesis, glucagon increases glycogen.
The result of the cross of an intermediate plant (Tt) with a tall plant (TT), when the tall gene (T) is incompletely dominant over the short gene (t) will be as shown in the punnet square below. The gametes formed will be T , T , T, and t (Where T is the allele for tall while t is the allele for short).The punnet square shows that the 50 % of the progeny of this cross will be tall (TT), and the other 50% will be intermediate (Tt). Hence, the correct answer is 'Option C - 50 percent tall, 50 percent intermediate'.
The principles of probability can be used to predict the outcomes of genetic crosse
Answer:
In this case, it is likely that the polypeptide chain assumed an alpha helix configuration because the lipid bilayer did not have beta-barrel proteins.
Explanation:
A polypeptide chain is naturally polar, however, a lipid bilayer is naturally non-polar. This makes it difficult and even prevents the polypeptide chain from crossing a lipid bilayer, since the composition of these two elements does not allow them to mix. In that case, the polypeptide chain has two options to take to successfully cross the lipid bilayer.
The first option that the polypeptide chain has is to allow the creation of twisted beta sheets in the shape of a closed barrel in its structure. This only works if the lipid bilayer has beta barrel proteins in its composition to act as a transport channel for the polypeptide chain. However, few lipid layers have this protein.
Most likely, the polypeptide chain assumes an alpha helix conformation to cross lipid bilayers that do not have beta-barrel proteins. By assuming the beta conformation, the polypeptide chain reinforces the hydrogen bonds present in its composition, allowing it to cross the lipid bilayer without having its conformation and structure disassembled.
