<span>The defense mechanism is called REGRESSION.

</span>In psychology, regression is the return to modes of thought and conduct that do not correspond to the age or psychic maturity of the individual, it means the behavior that is usual in a given situation gives way to behavior that is characteristic of a previous stage of development or corresponds to a repertoire of activities acquired in the past of the individual (like thumb sucking for Jared, he use to do that when he was a baby), but gradually replaced by more adapted activities. It may be temporary or lasting.

Lake Baikal is the oldest and deepest lake in the world. It is found in the middle of Siberia. In Lake Baikal there are 32 speci
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The. Two populations of sculpin lived on Lake Baikal, but a genetic change in one of the populations prevented them from crossing, thus creating a new species of sculpin.

B. The additional information I would use to test the hypotheses would be: 1) is there any species of fish similar to sculpin in the same lake? 2) what is the genetic change presented by the sculpins?

Explanation:

My hypothesis about sculpin fish states that sympathetic speciation has occurred. This speciation occurs when two populations of the same species can no longer promote crossings between them, thus creating an evolutionary process, which results in the creation of two distinct species, in the same habitat. I believe that this type of speciation is more common to happen in aquatic environments and in fish, since these environments present less physical barriers than the terrestrial environment. This usually occurs with the existence of genetic modifications within one of the populations. As a result, to test my hypothesis, I would need information about the existence of species similar to sculpin within the same lake, in addition to knowing what genetic differences between them would promote this type of speciation.

Nucleoplasmin is a nuclear protein. This protein was divided into two segments and linked to the same large cytoplasmic protein,
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d) "Only one of the two fusion proteins possesses a nuclear localization signal".

Explanation:

A nuclear localization signal or sequence (NLS) serves as an amino acidic tag that is recognized by the cell, and the cells responds by importing the protein into the nucleus. In this example a protein was divided into two segments and was used to generate two fusion proteins. Since only one of the two proteins was found in the nucleus, we can conclude that only one of the two fusion proteins possesses a nuclear localization signal.

Which of the following statements best describes the process of gene expression?
ipn [44]
The best description of expression gene process is constitutive. this is because it is the partial diploid strain whereby the strain containing a beta-galactosidase gene which is constitutive.
Gene expression process is the process by which information from a gene is being used in the synthesis of the functional gene product. The process gene expression is used by different known life. For example, we eukaryotes, prokaryotes and utilized by viruses which are used to generate the macromolecular machinery which is for life.
