Transposable elements are considered to be responsible for vast range of genome diversity and gene silencing.
Explanation:
Transposable elements are short sequences of DNA that have the ability to move from one location to another in the genome. During this process they copy themselves.
The entire process carried out by transposable elements to copy themselves and move from one location to another is called transposition.
Transposition may result in mutation and is potentially a major source of genome diversity and change. If a transposon inserts itself into the coding region of a gene,it interrupts the coding sequence and inactivates the gene expression.
In addition to this, a transposable element may contain transcription or translation termination signal that will block the gene expression downstream of insertion site.
Answer: The FDA and USDA cerate food safety programs, safeguards to protect Americans, to protect people from unsafe food. The FDA has monitoring programs for pathogens, naturaltoxins, pesticides, etc.; their methods are science-based.
A fat free diet is dangerous because IT CAN RESULT IN DEFICIENCY OF ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS.
Essential fatty acids refers to those fatty acids that humans must eat in their foods because the body can not synthesize them and they are required for good health. There are three type of essential fatty acids, these are arachidonic, linoleic and linolenic acids. When these essential fatty acid are absent in one's diet they lead to ill health.
1. tiny sacs within the lungs which increase the surface available for gas exchange = alveoli
2. a digestive enzyme that breaks down starches and glycogen into sugars = amylase
3. the two thin-walled chambers that receive blood into the heart from the veins = atria
4. the two tubes into which the trachea divide to go into each lung
= primary bronchi
5. a tiny vessel through which diffusion takes place between the blood and the body tissues
= capillary
6. a mass of nerve tissue not part of the brain = ganglion
