Answer:

Topoisomerase

Explanation:

Topoisomerases are enzymes that produce changes in the topology of the DNA during replication, transcription, traduction, or reparation processes. They can cut one or both strands and in order to relieve torsional stresses in the supercoiled structure of DNA. With this, they help to maintain the chromosome's integrity. There are two types of topoisomerases: topoisomerase I (it cuts only one strand of DNA) and topoisomerase II (it is able to cut both strands of DNA).

Two protein kinases, K1 and K2, function sequentially in an intracellular signaling pathway. If either kinase contains a mutatio
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The order must be K2→K1, since the permanently active K1 allele (K1a) is able to propagate the signal onward even when its upstream activator K2 is inactive (K2i). The reverse order would have resulted in a failure to signal (K1a→K2i), since the permanently active K1a kinase would be attempting to activate a dead K2i kinase.

Explanation:

  • You characterize a double mutant cell that contains K2 with type I mutation and K1 with type II mutation.
  • You observe that the response is seen even when no extracellular signal is provided.
  • In the normal pathway, i f K1 activat es K2, we expect t his combinat ion of two m utants to show no  response with or without ext racell ular signal. This is because no matt er how active K1 i s, it would be unable to  act ivate a mutant K2 that i s an activit y defi cient. If we reverse the order, K2 activating K1, the above  observati on is valid. Therefore, in the normal signaling pathway, K2 activates K1.

The Competitive Exclusion Principle states that: Group of answer choices a. When two species occur together, competition is alwa
Reika [66]

Answer:

b. Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion principle establishes that two or more species that share the same niche requirements,  in the same habitat, and are in biological competition for the same resources, won´t be able to coexist indefinitely in the same space if the other ecological factors are constant. This is because species with identical niches have the same necessities, which means that they will compete for the same resources. If these species have the same requirements, they can not coexist. When the superior competitor occupies the inferior competitor´s fundamental niche, the first species has advantages over the second species and <em>monopolizes all the resources</em>. From that moment, the inferior species is displaced and must adapt to use other resources changing its behavior, or must migrate to another area where it can get access to its needs or get extinct.

When <em>two competing species coexist</em>, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation. One of the species uses a <em>different resource, occupies another area, or uses the resources at different times during the day</em>. If there is not any differentiation between them, the dominant species displaces the weak species.

Niche specialization might produce genotypic separation. Subpopulations of a species diverge into new species.    

So, <em>competitive exclusion refers to the exclusion of the inferior competitor by the superior competitor when there is not habitat differentiation, and both species can not share the same niche.    </em>
