Answer:
Answered below
Explanation:
Whoosh is an inhibitor of the f1fo ATP synthase. ATP synthase is an enzyme that catalyses the synthesis of ATP in the mitochondria through the process of oxidative phosphorylation, by using energy from the transmembrane electrochemical proton gradient along the respiratory chain.
ATP synthase is made up of two main subunits called the F0 and F1. These subunits allow for ATP production through their rotational mechanisms.
Various synthetic and natural inhibitors of ATP synthase have been used to study the structure and mechanism of ATP synthase. These inhibitors cause the decrease in the NAD/NADH ratio. They include; polypeptides, organotin compounds, cationic inhibitors, amino acid modifiers, oligomycin and peptide inhibitors.
Answer:
A.the individual will be homozygous
Explanation:
Answer:
population expansion decreases as resources become scarce, leveling off when the carrying capacity of the environment is reached, resulting in an S-shaped curve.
Explanation:
Answer:
3/4 taster; 1/4 non-taster
The likelihood that their first child will be a taster: 75 %
Explanation:
Complete dominance occurs when a dominant gene variant or 'allele' completely masks the expression of the recessive allele in heterozygous individuals (i.e., individuals carrying one copy of the dominant allele and one copy of the recessive allele). In this case, both parents are heterozygous for a single gene trait (i.e., the ability to taste) which is ruled by complete dominance. In consequence, the expected phenotypic ratio in the progeny (F1) will be:
- Alleles: T (dominant taster allele); t (recessive non-taster allele)
- Parental cross: Tt x Tt
- Punnett Square from this cross:
T t
T TT Tt
t Tt tt
Expected F1 phenotypic ratio: 3/4 taster (i.e., 1/4 TT genotype + 1/2 genotype Tt = 3/4 or 75%); 1/4 non-taster (tt genotype = 1/4 or 25%). Moroever, the chance that the first child has the taster phenotype is 3/4 (75%).
