Brown hair is dominant over red hair. What will the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous br
bija089 [108]

Answer:

1) Firstly, lets sort out the alleles for the dominant and recessive characteristics. The dominant brown allele will be written as B and the recessive red hair allele will be written as b.

2) Lets sort out the genotype of the parents. The parent having homozygous brown coloured hair will carry the alleles BB. The parent carrying the heterozygous brown coloured hair will carry the alleles Bb.

3) The punnet square from these parents will be drawn as follows:

      B        b

B    BB     Bb

B    BB     Bb

4) Now, lets predict the phenotype of the offsprings. The results from the punnet square show that all of the offsprings will have brown coloured hair.

5) The genotype for the children will have 50% chance to be homozygous brown (BB) and 50% chance to be heterozygous brown (Bb).

A mechanism by which cancer cells can evade an immune response involves an alteration in the amount of MIC on the cell surface b
kvasek [131]

Answer:

cleavage of MIC at the cell surface by a protease

Explanation:

The immune system refers to a complex network of cells and proteins that function to eliminate potentially tumorigenic cells on a daily basis. However, cancer cells show mechanisms in order to escape immune responses. MHC class I chain-related proteins A and B (MICA and MICB) are expressed in normal and tumorigenic cells where they act as ligands of the NKG2D receptor. The expression level of these proteins (MICA and MICB) is finely regulated by the activity of metalloproteinases (i.e., by protease-mediated cleavage), but this mechanism is altered in cancer cells. Recently, drug therapies that stimulate NKG2D mediated tumor destruction by reducing the cleavage of MICA and MICB from the surface of cancer cells have been developed.
