Answer:

Why are molecules such as valinomycin effective at transporting ions across the membrane?

Valinomycin is effective as transporting ions across the membrane because it is no charged, so it can carry ions.

Why would a drop in temperature to or below the transition temperature limit valinomycin mediated K+ transport across the plasma membrane?

Valinomycin is limited by temperature because its activity is highly sensitive and it depends on a stable and an average temperature.

Explanation:

Valinomycin is effective at transporting ion across the membrane because is an antibiotic that alternates hydroxy and amino acid, ans it helps membranes to be permeable. Valinomycin is a cyclic molecule that helps in ions transportation through membranes. Also, antibiotics have a temperature range of activity, that's why it is sensitive to changes.

a. What do the letters R and I represent ? b. What is the genotype of the pink-flowered snapdragons? c. Explain whether the alle
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

a) R= allele for red colored flower

I= Allele for ivory flowers

b) Genotype of pink flowered plant: RI

c) Incomplete dominance

d) 100%

Explanation:

When the dominant allele is not able to fully mask the expression of the recessive allele in the heterozygous state, it is said to be incomplete dominance. The R and I alleles impart red and ivory color respectively to the flowers of the snapdragon plant. The heterozygous genotype "RI" imparts a pink color to the flowers and therefore, the alleles are said to exhibit incomplete dominance.

The genotype of red-flowered snapdragon plant = RR. The genotype of ivory flowered snapdragon plant= II. When a red-flowered snapdragon plant is crossed with an ivory flowered snapdragon plant, the progeny is heterozygous in nature with the "RI" genotype. The phenotype of the progeny is "Pink flower" since the R allele is incompletely dominant over the allele I.

Identify the mutagenic effects of deaminating agents, alkylating agents, and base analogs.
Mila [183]
<span>All are mutagenic because they cause base substitutions, deaminating agents oxidatively deaminate bases so cytosine converted to uracil and adenine converted to hypoxanthine, uracil pairs with adenine and hypoxanthine pairs with cytosine, alkylating agents donate alkyl group to amino or keto groups altering base pair affinities</span>

State the products of anaerobic respiration by yeast and give an application of each in society
QveST [7]
There are two types of respiration namely aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration requires oxygen while anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen. The products of anaerobic respiration (also referred to as fermentation) in yeast are carbon iv oxide and ethanol. Anaerobic respiration has a range of applications in the society which includes Brewing process (bear making process) in alcohol industry, bread making process( baking) in baking industry.
