Answer: Option B.
Explanation:
The first experiment of the passage shows that treatment with TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 antagonists led to lower levels of epithelial cell production. For this conclusion to be strongly valid, we want to show a positive correlation between TGFBR activity and epithelial proliferation.
Answer: Plasmid.
A plasmid is a small DNA molecule within a bacteria cell that is separated from the chromosomal DNA and can replicate independently. Through Recombinant DNA, we can insert a gene that we want to see replicated in the plasmid, and when the bacteria multiplies, which it does often, we will obtain a lot of copies of interest gene.
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
Nucleosomes fold up to form a 30-nanometer chromatin fiber, which forms loops averaging 300 nanometers in length. The 300 nm fibers are compressed and folded to produce a 250 nm-wide fiber, which is tightly coiled into the chromatid of a chromosome.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction where offspring comes from a single parent.
B is incorrect because asexual reproduction requires only one individual, while sexual reproduction requires two.
C is incorrect because mutation rates are not lower in sexual reproduction than in asexual reproduction.
D is incorrect because lots of single-celled organisms, like bacteria, reproduce asexually.
<span>Pacinian corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors so they respond only at the onset and offset of the stimulus. The Pacinian corpuscle has a single afferent nerve fiber. Its end is covered by a sensitive receptor membrane whose sodium channels will open when the membrane is deformed in any way. Pressure thus causes sodium to enter the neuron and create a generator potential. If this potential reaches a certain threshold nerve impulses are formed. This impulse is now transferred along the axon with the use of sodium channels and sodium/potassium pumps in the axon membrane. The magnitude of the stimulus is encoded in the frequency of impulses generated in the neuron. So the more massive or rapid the deformation of a single corpuscle, the higher the frequency of nerve impulses generated in its neuron.</span>
