Answer:
Indivisuals with producing an abnormal form of extracellular protein fibrillin are suffering from Marfan syndrome ehich is caused by genetic mutation in the FBN1 gene.
Explanation:
Gene mutations in FBN1 gene results in the production of an abnormal extracellular matrix fibrillin-1 protein that cannot function properly. These gene mutations basically reduce the amount of fibrillin-1 produced by the cell, alter the structure of fibrillin-1, or causes the impairment of the transport of fibrillin-1 out of the cell.
As a result, protein is poorly incorporated into extracellular matrix. Hence, indivisuals with Marfan syndrome present following symptoms
Tall stature.
Disproportionately long arms, legs and fingers.
Sternum either protrudes outward or dips inward.
Arched palate and crowded teeth.
Heart murmurs.
Extreme nearsightedness.
The correct answer is B.
Genetic drift is one of the four evolutionary mechanisms. It changes the frequency by chance, aka at random.
For example. if you have 100 frogs in the population, 20 red, 20 green and 60 yellow, not all of the alleles are going to be passed down to the next generation because a portion of the population can be affected by a random event such as the flood. So, if the flood accidentally kills 20 red frogs, none of the offspring are going to be red by chance.
Answer:
Explanation:
The closer the planet is to the sun,the faster it moves because the suns gravitational pull is stronger.The answer tells you that the greater the distance,the slower the planet will rotate
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
water potential is energy required, per quantity of water, to transport an infinitesimal quantity of water from sample to a reference pool of pure free water.
water potential gradient is the difference in the water potential of two liquids.
