IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
8 0
A carrier of a genetic disorder who does not show symptoms is most likely to be heterozygous for the trait and able to transmit it to offspring. This particular individual has inherited a recessive allele for a genetic trait or mutation but does not display that trait or show symptoms of the disease. They are referred to as genetic carriers. The chance of two carriers having an offspring with the disease or genetic disorder is 25%

What is the basis of the metric system of measurement?
prisoha [69]

Base units for mass, length, time, and charge, and the number 10. All metric units, quantities, and operations are combinations of these.

Example: 1 micro-Newton (a tiny force) is 1 kilogram-meter per second squared times 10^-6.

How Light Bleaches Rhodopsin
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Salut!

  1. Light enters the eye through the cornea.
  2. Light travels to the macula within the retina.
  3. Rhodopsin absorbs light, and the Vitamin A changes shape.
  4. Vitamin A detaches from the rhodopsin, and some vitamin A is lost.
  5. Vitamin A from the bloodstream replenishes what is lost. The vitamin A returns to its original shape.

Explanation:

Retina is the part of the eye that contains photosensitive cells that capture light and produce the electrical signals that the brain perceives as images. These photosensitive cells are of two kinds:

  • Rods
  • Cones

Rods contain the photosensitive pigment, rhodopsin that is needed for vision at night or in dim light. Cones function in bright light.

Rhodopsin Bleaching:

Vision in bright or excessive light requires a process called rhodopsin bleaching which is the degradation of rhodopsin upon exposure to light. Upon contact with light, rhodopsin goes through structural changes characterized by the conversion of a pigment derived from Vitamin A, 11-<em>cis</em> retinal to all <em>trans</em> retinal. This chemical conversion initiates a photo-transduction reaction (reaction in which a photon of light is converted into electrical signals) that produces the electrical signals that travel to the brain via the optic nerve. The brain converts the electrical signals to images. This is followed by rhodopsin regeneration in the dark in which all <em>trans</em> retinal is converted back into 11 <em>cis</em> retinal.

Ionization energy is the amount of energy necessary to _____.
Maslowich
I think ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom. It is the amount of energy that is required to remove the most loosely bound electron, the valence electron, of an isolated gaseous atom to form a cation. Atoms and molecules have this measurement, which refer to the energy it takes for all atoms in one mole of a substance to each lose one electron.

Insect hormones and their receptors ________. A. act independently of each other B. are a focus in pest control research C. util
Leokris [45]

Insect hormones and their receptors are a focus in pest control and research. Hence, Option B is correct.

Some of the insect hormones such as ecdysone (molting hormone), JH (juvenile hormone) and their analogs can be used for biological  control of pests.

Option A: Hormone receptors are proteins that bind hormones and form hormone receptor complex to maintain cellular activities.

So Option A is incorrect.

Option B: Some of the peptide hormones used in pest control and research. So Option B is correct.

Option C: Peptide hormones interact with only cell surface whereas aminoacid derivatives and thyroid hormones directly interact with nucleus. so Option C is incorrect.

option D is incorrect.
