Axonal guidance is the process through which axons reach their proper targets in the brain. Researchers hypothesize that the wil

d-type PTP gene product mediates proper axonal guidance by inactivating the Abl gene product. Which experimental observation would best support this hypothesis?

Answer:

Suppression of Abl reduces the severity of abnormal axonal guidance in PTP mutants

Explanation:

Axon guidance is a neural development subfield relating to the mechanism by which neurons send out axons to meet their right targets.

ABL gene is a protooncogene that encodes a protein tyrosine kinase involved in a variety of cellular processes. PTPs are known to signal a number of cellular processes, including cell development, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation.

Suppression of Abl reduces the severity of abnormal axonal guidance in PTP mutants.

What kind of channels are located in the input region?
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B ( ligand gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules).

Explanation:

Input region or postsynaptic region or dendrite is the site of neuron cell which receives the impulse from the pre-synaptic neuron at the synaptic junction.

The cell membrane of the dendrite is embedded with ligand-gated channels which opens up in response to the ligand (neurotransmitters) produced by the neurotransmitter vesicle of axon or output region of neuron.

The neuromuscular junction is such a case where acetylcholine receptors present in the dendrite opens in the presence of acetylcholine.

Thus, option B ( ligand-gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules) is the correct option.

How will you determine which strain is wild type and which strain is mutant? Can you justify your answers using molecular biolog
Levart [38]

Answer: The simplest way is to determine if a strain is mutant is observing morphology, growth rate, double time, etc but it is accurate if you can prove if the strain is deficient in one aminoacid or can't metabolize lactose, etc.

Explanation: A wildtype strain functions normally, for example, can metabolize as a carbon source, glucose, lactose and other sugars, can synthesize all the aminoacids requered for protein synthesis, etc. If a strain suffers a mutation and it is inheritable, the strain become a mutant. Since several mutations can be silent ones, only those that interfere with a process, can be assesed easyly.

For example, if you have several strains and put them in a lactose medium, but some of them cannot growth means that are lactose mutants. Those strains could carry a mutation in genes that encode lactose degrading enzymes or in regulatory genes of the lac operon, etc.
