The surface of the human red blood cell is dominated by a small number of abundant blood group active proteins. The major proteins are the anion transport protein (band 3) which has AB(H) activity, and Glycophorin A which has MN activity.
Answer: This is because a parent with type AB blood has both A and B antigens therefore, the child must inherit either A or B antigen from the parent.
Explanation: In ABO blood type, blood types are classified on the basis of the antigens present in the red blood cells. There are two types of antigens: A and B antigens.
A blood type is so named because it has A antigens, B blood type has B antigens, AB blood type has both A and B antigens while O blood type has no antigens.
Each of these blood types is controlled by two alleles, and children inherit one allele from each parent. If a parent has AB blood type, none of his offsprings will have O blood type because each offspring must inherit either antigen A or B from this parent.
The number of chromosomes in a female
scorpion’s egg cells have half as many chromosomes as compared in her body
cells. Chromosome is a single long molecule of DNA wound around proteins called
histones. It is
made up of DNA wrapped around proteins.
First, the electron
transport chain transfer the electrons from electron donors to electron
acceptors using both reduction and oxidation reactions.
Next, the energy
released in these reactions is captured as an electrochemical proton gradient
that triggers the synthesis of ATP synthase and produce adenosine triphosphate
(ATP) from ADP and phosphate group in the process called chemiosmosis.
Lastly, ATP stores
energy chemically in the form of highly strained bonds and together, the
electron transport chain and chemiosmosis makes up the oxidative
phosphorylation which is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
