Answer:

(D). The tiger would not be able to keep running

Explanation:

The hydrogen ion pumps present in mitochondrial inner membrane, generate proton gradient  across the mitochondrial membrane.

Proton pumps are very important for the process of electron transport chain as it enables synthesis of energy molecules or ATPs by using electrochemical gradient formed by movement of protons.  

So, if hydrogen ion pumps are not functioning in tiger's mitochondria, he would not be able to produce energy and he would be unable to keep running.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Identify the start and stop codons in the mRNA sequence 5'-UAUCCAUGGCACUUUAAAC-3'. What is the resulting amino acid sequence? A.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

D. Start codon: AUG; stop codon: UAA; protein: Met-Ala-Leu-stop

Explanation:

  • Start codon is the first codon in mRNA which is translated to an amino acid. AUG is the most common start codon and corresponds to methionine in eukaryotes and modified methionine in bacteria.
  • Stop codon ends the translation process. There is no corresponding amino acid to it and the newly formed mRNA exits the translation machinery. There are three types of stop codons: UAA, UGA and UAG.
  • GCA codon codes for Alanine and CUU codon codes for Leucine.
  • Hence in the given sequence AUG is the start codon, UAA is the stop codon and the resulting amino acid sequence is Met-Ala-Leu-stop.

The defense mechanisms where one imposes one's own unacceptable impulses or wishes onto another person is_______________.
enot [183]

Answer:

Sublimation

Explanation:

People tends to have thoughts, feelings, impulses, and memories that can be difficult to deal with. In psychoanalytic theory, Sublimation is a defense mechanism in which people metamorphose or modify their hindered and inconsistent challenged emotions or unacceptable impulses into a social behavioral way that is accepted and profitable. For example, an individual that is always aggressive over the slightest little mistake or argument can take up a military school to join the troop of an army. He can use his role as a soldier as an outlet to vent his aggression and frustration into socially acceptable ways by dealing with those who fails to comply to the law.
