Answer:
The correct answer is - B. Non-disjunction during sperm formation resulted in her receiving no sex chromosome from her father and an X chromosome from her mother; she is XO.
Explanation:
In this case, the mother was a carrier of hemophilia and she transfers that mutant allele to her daughter and as the daughter did not get any sex chromosome from her father.
Therefore, mutant X expresses itself and she is hemophilic.
This X did not express in case, of her mother due to fact that it is a recessive allele and only expresses when both genes is the same state.
Answer:
A. pH
Explanation:
Denaturation of proteins is a protein whereby the protein molecule loses its primary structure and ultimately its physical functioning as a result of factors including pH, temperature or concentration of chemicals. Based on this definition, it is visible that denaturation of proteins can be caused by these three factors: pH, chemical and temperature.
However, in this case of PEPSIN enzyme, which is a proteinous molecule produced in the stomach of humans and functions in breaking down proteins, its denaturation occurs as it moves along the digestive tract to the intestines. This is as a result of the changes in pH in the digestive tract.
The pH of the stomach where pepsin is produced is acidic i.e. <3.0. However, as one moves towards the intestine, the pH increases, which is unfavorable or considered harsh for the pepsin enzyme. Hence, it gets denatured.
Answer:
a) another living cell
Explanation:
"All living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division."
Answer:
A
Explanation:
<em>The active state of cell division covers the prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The total number of observed cells that were undergoing cell division can, thus, be calculated by adding the number of cells in each stage of the cell division.</em>
Total number of cell in division = 20+4+2+4
= 30
Probability that a randomly chose cell will be undergoing cell division = <em>number of cells in division/total number of cells</em>
= 30/200
= 0.15 or 15%
The correct option is, therefore, A.
