Answer:

One of the RNA molecules has experienced gene duplication as the result of translocation.

Explanation:

Translocation and duplication are some of the structural abnormalities in the chromosomes that may even cause certain genetic disorders. Duplication is the presence of a genetic segment for more than one time in the chromosome. The repeated genetic segments are mostly present in the tandem pattern. When a chromosome fragment breaks off and attaches to a non-homologous chromosome, it is called translocation. It leads to the deletion of a genetic segment in one chromosome and duplication in the other.

According to the given information, a genetic segment bearing two genes is detached from one RNA and gets attached to the other RNA molecule of the HIV genome. Therefore, the RNA molecule has undergone translocation and has lost a genetic segment while the other has gained a genetic segment (duplication) due to translocation.

If water molecules inside and outside of a cell became non polar , how would the transport of materials in and out of the cell b
postnew [5]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The water will move in and out freely. The material transport which is due to the water transport will be affected.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Water is a partially polar molecules. Many ionic compounds and ions travel inside and outside the cell due to attachment with water molecule.
  • As well as water movement is controlled due to its polar nature through cell membrane. and the cytoplasm and outer environment is separate due to non polar cell membrane.
  • If the water become non polar then the movement through cell membrane will be easy for water. And the molecules dissolved in water will also be transported uncontrollably.

A group of students wants to study the rate of photosynthesis under various conditions. They use a blender to mechanically disru
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The statement that best explains the result would be that <u>the rate of photosynthesis is greatest for direct sunlight and least for the infrared light.</u>

The DPIP will normally replace and play the role of NADPH in the light reaction of the process of photosynthesis. Hence, it will become colorless as a result of reduction and the rate of photosynthesis can be monitored based on the magnitude of the disappearance of the dark blue color.

It means that the more colorless the liquid in the illustration is, the more the rate of photosynthesis. <em>The color change moved from dark blue to clear colorless under direct sunlight, from dark blue to nearly colorless under indirect sunlight, and from dark blue to slightly lighter under the infrared light.</em> <u>This clearly indicates that the rate of photosynthesis is highest under direct sunlight and lowest under infrared light with the indirect sunlight having an intermediate rate. </u>

The correct option is B.
