Answer:

C) Water will move out of the cell.

Explanation:

In microbial growth experiments, when a bacterium is placed in a Petri dish with a solution that contains dissolved salt (NaCl) - a hypertonic solution -, the result will lead to the <u>dehydration and shrinking of the bacterial cell</u>.

This condition will eventually cause the rupture of the cell, resulting in the diffuse of H20 molecules from the plasma membrane, that is, the water moving out of the cell.

poizon [28]
Other things veterinarians are looking at is the boundary between animals, people, and the environment. Veterinarians need to work with human doctors to work on food safety, problems connected to cancer, etc. Veterinarians and human doctors can get facts from each other. The problems we face in society means that they have to cooperate with both the animal health side, the human health side, and environment side as well. One way they think of “one health” is evolving viruses. They are looking at this to find a solution by the use of comparative medicine and observing the environment.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

The start codon is AUG

Explanation:

A three nucleotide sequence (represented with bases) of a DNA or a RNA which translates to a specific amino acid is referred to as codon. To begin the translation into a new protein, the first three nucleotide is always AUG (called the START codon) which is the codon for methionine.

NOTE: AUG is the initial of the bases; Adenine, Uracil and Guanine

Please help its due in a hour!!!!!
garri49 [273]

Answer:

1. The difference between the normal hemoglobin protein DNA sequence and the sickle cell hemoglobin DNA sequence is a base to base shift, in this case adenine (GAG) to thymine (GTG).

2. The difference affects the amino acid sequence of the protein by replacing glutamic acid (Glu) with valine (Val).

Explanation:

In sickle cell anemia, a change in the DNA nucleotide sequence is observed, where adenine is substituted by thymine, whose expression is the change in the amino acid sequence of globine β, incorporating valine instead of glutamic acid. This represents a molecular mutation - point mutation - by subtitution, which corresponds to missense mutation.

<u>Normal hemoglobin protein in a RBC</u>

DNA                 CTG ACT CCT GAG GAG AAG TCT

Amino acids     Leu  Thr   Pro   Glu   Glu   Lys   Ser

<u>Sickle cell hemoglobin protein in a RBC</u>

DNA                 CTG ACT CCT <em>GTG</em> GAG AAG TCT

Amino acids     Leu  Thr   Pro   <em>Val</em>   Glu   Lys   Ser

When GAG is transcribed to mRNA, the CUC codon is obtained, which codes for glutamic acid. Thymine substitution causes the DNA sequence to change to GTG, which is transcribed as CAC, the codon that encodes the amino acid valine. The <u>change from glutamic acid to valine in β-globin causes an altered hemoglobin, giving the abnormal erythrocytes observed in sickle cell disease</u>.
