Any substance that triggers an immune response is an antigen(s).
A phylogeny is an evolutionary ”tree” of related
organisms that can be constructed by using
information obtained from the genetic material.
Genetic information is contained in all living cells,
in the form of long DNA molecules that take the
shape of connected double- stranded spirals
(DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA
spirals, or “helixes”, are tightly compressed in the
nucleus of every cell. Their information is
organized into a code made up of four small
molecules — the building blocks of DNA. The
molecules, called nucleotides, are labelled:
A (adenine), C (cytosine), G (guanine) and T
(thymine).
It is possible to draw conclusions about the
evolution of a group of plant or animal species,
and the relationships among them, by comparing
selected pieces of DNA.
Answer:
In grassland ecosystem, first trophic level is the producer. Producers are the organisms which makes their own food, here the producer are grasses. The second trohic level contain herbivores which feed on these grasses. These herbivores are eaten by secondary consumers which belongs to third trophic level and secondary consumers are then eaten by tertiary consumer.
The population of producers are very high so it is placed at the base while tertiary consumer are placed on the top due to low population.
Answer:
Genetic mapping for unequivocal identification of the potentially causative mutation
Explanation:
Galactosemia is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) gene, which encodes an enzyme involved in the metabolism of galactose. Gene mapping is a technique widely used in genetics to identify the position of one locus a chromosome by using molecular markers to estimate genetic distances. Genetic mapping provides useful evidence in order to identify when a disease that is transmitted from parent to offspring can be associated with one or more genes and then determine which gene/s is/are responsible for this condition.
