Is the first one a true or false question?
Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is as following:
The role that p53 protein plays in suppressing inappropriate progression through the cell cycle depends on all of the following EXCEPT _______.
A) p53 indirectly blocks G1 to S transition in the cell cycle
B) p53 activates transcription of WAF1
C) p53 stability increases in the presence of unrepaired DNA lesions
D) the ability of p53 to bind DNA lesions
Answer: D) the ability of p53 to bind DNA lesions
Explanation:
The activities of the protein p53 are dependent on its binding DNA. Specific post-translational modifications to the p53 protein are important for efficient sequence-specific binding and transcription activities. Non-sequence-specific DNA binding can involve a broad range of p53 proteins and predominate as more serious DNA damage or greater induction of p53 protein. P53 Protein is not strictly essential for sensing and repairing DNA damage. Alternatively, p53 protein can control an apoptosis checkpoint by competing with DNA repair proteins for non-sequence-specific binding in the DNA duplex to exposed single-stranded regions.
Hence, while suppresing inappropriate progression through the cell cycle protein p53 does not bind to DNA lesions.
Hence, the correct option is D.
Answer:
Genetic engineering has its grass roots from the recombinant technology.
Explanation:
Genetic engineering is seen to have started from a scientists activity which involved restriction enzymes and DNA ligases that were used by Paul Berg in 1972 to create the first recombinant DNA molecules. A monkey virus which is SV40 was combined with a lambda one. Following that, the results of the experiment and attempts were further investigated by other scientists and later, the first plant that underwent genetic engineering was the plant tobacco.
The answer is B, use energy they take in from the environment to convert inorganic molecules into complex organic molecules.
Photosynthesis is a two stage process in which the first stage is light dependent and occurs in the thylakoid membranes where photosynthesis exist. The products of the first stage are needed for the second stage to occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts.
