Answer:

D. Population genetics

Population genetics is the study of genetic variation within populations, and involves the examination and modelling of changes in the frequencies of genes and alleles in populations over space and time. ... In natural populations, however, the genetic composition of a population's gene pool may change over time.

Explanation:

microevolution - evolutionary change within a species or small group of organisms, especially over a short period. (Not studying the overall evolution in the population, just a single allele usually) Not it then

macroevolution - Macroevolution in the modern sense is evolution that is guided by selection among interspecific variation, as opposed to selection among intraspecific variation in microevolution (this goes over huge groups of different species) Not it then

gene pool - The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. (Not the study of evolution in a population) Not that then

So it has to be D

goblinko [34]

Answer:

This flower called scientifically <em>Amorphophallus titanum</em> has disadvantages in survival because it only flowers approximately every 10 years, a situation that limits its sexual reproduction. However, its particular smell attracts several pollinators that help its dispersion. This plant is currently in danger of extinction due to the loss of habitat and its late flowering does not favor this situation.

How enzymes inhibitions studies in the formulation and development of drugs

lesya [120]

Answer:

Enzyme inhibitors may alter the elimination rate of a particular drug or inhibit detoxication pathways

Explanation:

An enzyme inhibitor is a chemical compound capable of binding to an enzyme in order to reduce its activity. An enzyme inhibitor may bind to an active site and thus decreases the rate of reaction (direct inhibition). Enzyme inhibitors may act 1-to Inhibit detoxification enzymes and 2-reduce the elimination rate of enzyme drugs, thereby having dose-dependent toxicity effects. For example, many medicines are based on the inhibition of Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) proteins, which are a superfamily of enzymes required for drug metabolism.

In circumstances where the body requires prolonged or increased levels of a hormone, the DNA of target cells will specify the sy

eduard

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. up-regulation.

Explanation:

When the body requires the increased level of the hormone, target cells increase the synthesis of more receptors on the cell surface of the target organ. This process is known as the up-regulation of the receptors for the hormone.

Up-regulation is an increase in the receptors present on the cell surface of target cells so that cells can easily bind to the hormone. Up-regulation makes the cells increase the sensitivity to a hormone.

Thus, the correct answer is option C up-regulation.
