Answer:
The parents are of genotype heterozygous dominant and homozygous recessive. Supposing the dominant allele is N and the recessive allele is n, one of the parents will be Nn while the other nn. The phenotypic (based on visible characteristics) ratio will be 1:1 for dom/rec and rec/rec
Explanation:
Answer:
13n
Explanation:
basically goes by .2 and divide so 2.6 or 26/2=13
Answer:
NAD+ act both as coenzyme as well as electron acceptor compound and get reduced to NADH by accepting electron.
Explanation:
NAD+ act as co enzyme of various biological catalyst such as malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase etc.
NAD+ can act as co enzyme only in its oxidized form but not in its reduced form called NADH.
Many reaction needs NAD+ to occur such as conversion of glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate to 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate, malate to oxaloacetate.
That"s why NAD+/NADH ratio is kept very high because if this ratio bychance get low then it will hamper the normal redox potential of NAD+/NADH.As a result many biochemical reaction will not take place.
Answer – D. RNA
Like proteins, Ribonucleic acid is another kind of organic molecule that also acts as a catalyst for chemical reactions. Asides acting a catalyst for chemical reactions, proteins have a wide variety of functions that they perform in in living cells.
Answer:
The correct answer is 3: "<em>High levels of Ca2+ are expected to be found </em><em>within the sarcoplasmic reticulum</em>".
Explanation:
Muscular contraction is a highly regulated process that depends on free calcium concentration in the cytoplasm. Amounts of cytoplasmic calcium are regulated by <u>sarcoplasmic reticulum</u> that functions as a storage of the ion.
When a nerve impulse reaches the membrane of a muscle fiber, through acetylcholine release, the membrane depolarizes producing the entrance of calcium from <u>extracellular space</u>. The impulse is transmitted along the membrane to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, from where calcium is released. At this point, <em>tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. The calcium channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum controls the ion release, that activates and regulates muscle contraction, by increasing its cytoplasmic levels. When <em>calcium binds to the troponin C</em>, <em>the troponin T alters the tropomyosin by moving it and then unblocks the binding sites,</em> making possible the formation of <em>cross-bridges between actin and myosin filaments.</em> When myosin binds to the uncovered actin-binding sites, ATP is transformed into ADP and inorganic phosphate.
Z-bands are then pulled toward each other, thus shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, and producing muscle fiber contraction.
