Q1. The answer is egg.

The fertilisation is a fusion of two gamete cells which results in the formation of the zygote. Sperms and eggs are gamete cells, male and female, respectively. After a sperm and an egg fuse, i.e. the fertilisation takes place, a zygote is created and then begins a development of an embryo.


Q31. The answer is 100% chance

Alleles:
T - the dominant allele for the tongue rolling
t - the recessive allele

Genotypes and phenotypes:
TT - people able to roll tongue 
Tt - people able to roll tongue
tt - people not able to roll tongue

<span>The mother’s genotype is TT and the father’s genotype is TT. The offspring will get T allele from the mother and T allele from the father:
Parents:            TT        x         TT
Offspring:     TT      TT      TT         TT

So, all of the offspring will have genotype TT and will be able to roll their tongues.
 

Q32. The answer is codominant.

A codominance is a pattern of inheritance in which both alleles of a gene are expressed. So, there are no dominant and recessive alleles and both will affect the phenotype. For example, plants with alleles for both red and white flowers will have flowers that are both red and white.</span>

A typical human cell expresses only about 5% of its genes at any time. The expression of a gene can be regulated during any step
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Enzymes

Explanation:

The regulation of gene expression is the central dogma of life. It is a series or set of mechanisms in which genetic information in the DNA expresses in the form of RNA or protein. Cells give gene expression b different mechanisms as transcription, maturation of mRNA, and translation.

During these mechanisms, different gene-regulatory proteins are influenced. For example, a set of RNA polymerases that are proteins transcribe the DNA molecule during transcription. Transcription factors are also proteins that control the synthesis of proteins in the cell. These proteins are an enzyme that catalyse the gene regulation in the human cells.

Salivary amylase is released in the mouth where it breaks down sugars. however, it is inactive once it reaches the stomach where
GREYUIT [131]
<span>Amylase needs an optimum pH for its activity. It is in the range of 6-7. Below or above pH will denature this enzyme. The pH level is optimum for this enzyme in the mouth and hence it catalyses the break down of sugar. The pH level of stomach is lower than its optimum level duet to the activity of gastric acid. Hence the enzyme becomes inactive in the stomach.</span>

What role does the MutL protein play in DNA repair? (5 POINTS) It performs a proofreading function, similar to DNA polymerase, a
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It recognizes and binds to a pair of "mismatched" nucleotides, preventing their translation.

Explanation:

Mut L protein is involved in mismatch DNA repair. MutL protein is complexed with MutS protein and the MutL-MutS complex recognizes all the mismatched base pairs present in the newly formed DNA strand. The complex can not recognize the "C-C" pairs. MutH protein joins the complex.

The MutH protein also has a site-specific endonuclease activity and cleaves the unmethylated DNA strand towards the 5' end of the guanine base in the GATC sequence to mark the strand for DNA repair. In this way, MutL protein, along with MutS and MutH proteins mark the mismatched DNA bases for repair so that they are not translated into a faulty protein.

Ilya [14]

The student who caught the cold caused by this specific Rhinovirus was exposed to the exact same Rhinovirus 18 months later. Memory B cells of the immune system will protect her from getting the same cold again.

In immunology, a memory B cell (MBC) is a type of B lymphocyte that forms part of the adaptive immune system. These cells develop within germinal centres of the secondary lymphoid organs.

Memory B cells circulate in the blood stream in a quiescent state, sometimes for decades. Their function is to memorize the characteristics of the antigen that activated their parent B cell during initial infection such that if the memory B cell later encounters the same antigen, it triggers an accelerated and robust secondary immune response.

Memory B cells have B cell receptors (BCRs) on their cell membrane, identical to the one on their parent cell, that allow them to recognize antigen and mount a specific antibody response.
