The MCB operon encodes the following four core proteins: MCB250, MCB251, MCB252 and MCB253. MCB354 is encoded by a separate gene

. A mutation occurs in the third gene of the operon (i.e., mcb252) resulting in a stop codon in the middle of its coding sequence. As described previously, this might result in a polar effect on the downstream gene (i.e., mcb253) involving Rho dependent termination. What are two possible ways that this nonsense mutation might result in a polar effect post-transcriptionally?

Answer:

In one way, the existence of a nonsense mutation would lead to the generation of a premature termination codon that will be identified by the RNA polymerase as a termination sequence encouraged by the activity of Rho factor to dissociate ribosome, thus, discharging RNA polymerase and preventing further transcription mechanism making the transcription of the downstream sequence impossible.  

For the second way, there is a need to consider that the mechanism is taking place post-transcriptionally. Thus, the effects should be devised after transcription has taken place and the only fate lies in the mechanism encouraged by the RNA dependent RNA-polymerase. However, for this to take place, the event of genetic recombination can also be taken into account leading to the appearance of the faulty gene in the sequence. Apart from this, the open reading frame is required to be co-expressive that would be the most suitable factor, which determines whether the downstream sequences will be transcribed or not post nonsense mutation.  

However, the total change relies upon the fact that the mutation is taking place artificially or is induced naturally. One more thing to consider is that there is an existence of another gene known as MCB 354, which is encrypted by another gene and is probably monitored by another promoter sequence. Thus, co-expression would probably be the mechanism in terms of the rho-dependent termination.

As solar energy interacts with carbon dioxide, water vapor, and several other gases in the troposphere, it warms the troposphere
Veronika [31]

As solar energy interacts with carbon dioxide, water vapor, and several other gases in the troposphere, it warms the troposphere process known as the Green house effect.

  • Troposphere is the lower most part of the earth's atmosphere comprises of Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon dioxide and Water vapour.
  • Carbondioxide, water vapour and other gases like methane are concentrated highly in the Trophosphere due to some human activities (Industrial revolution).
  • Such excess Green house gases forms a shield layer which retains the heat by trapping the long wave radiation of solar energy in troposphere. As a result, global warming and abnormal weather conditions occurs in the planet.

How would the cycle be different if there were no water on earth?
Luda [366]

Answer:

What I expect would happen: First, there would be no clouds. Lack of clouds would mean there would be no rain and the average temperature of the Earth would increase, resulting in large areas of land becoming desert.

Explanation:

The water cycle is the process where water falls as rain, is transported via rivers and streams to lakes and oceans, evaporates into the sky, condenses into clouds, and falls as rain again. Here's a diagram:

water.usgs.gov

water.usgs.gov

So what would happen if there were no condensation stage?

The condensation stage is the one where water vapour gathers together into clouds (and when the clouds become heavy enough with vapour, release water as rain). So the first answer is that there would be no clouds.

Without clouds, I foresee a few things happening:

From clouds come rain. With no clouds, there would be no rain.

Clouds move moisture from lakes and oceans (where it evaporates up) to mountains and other places inland that spark rainfall. And so vast stretches of land would become desert.

Clouds reflect sunlight and help cool the Earth. With no clouds, the average temperature of the Earth would increase significantly.

And so to summarize what I expect would happen. First, there would be no clouds. Lack of clouds would mean there would be no rain and the average temperature of the Earth would increase, resulting in large areas of land becoming desert.
