Answer:
The comparison of proteins and polysaccharides establishes that they have similarity in both consist of linked monomers via the process dehydration reactions.
Explanation:
Both proteins and polysaccharides are polymers whose structure consists of the union of monomers. In the case of proteins the monomer is the amino acid, while in the polysaccharides can be glucose molecules.
The process of polymer formation is called polymerization, and one of the reactions that this process allows is <u>polycondensation</u>, where a water molecule is lost in the union of monomers.
The loss of water in a chemical reaction involves dehydration, a characteristic shared by the processes of adding monomers to proteins and polysaccharides.
The other options are not correct, because
- <em>Hydrolysis produces the rupture of molecules, with the intervention of water.</em>
- <em>Only polysaccharides are sugars bound by the dehydration synthesis process.</em>
- <em>Only proteins consist of amino acids linked through the process of hydrolysis.</em>
Explanation:
a) The allele for hemophilia is Xh and that for normal is XH.
Crossing a hemophiliac male, Xh Y, with a normal female XH XH,
- XH Xh, normal carrier female
- XH Xh, normal carrier female
- XH Y, normal male
- XH Y, normal male
b) Both parents are normal and children still having hemophilia means that the mother is a carrier.
Let's see how it'll work out if we cross a normal male with a carrier female,
XH Y × XH Xh
- XH XH, normal female
- XH Xh, carrier female
- XH Y, normal male
- Xh Y, hemophiliac male
This means that the possibility of a female being normal, a carrier or not, is 100%. The possibility of a male being normal is 50% and the possibility of him being a hemophiliac is also 50%.
Thus it's possible that all 7 sons get hemophilia as each male baby has a 50% chance of having the genotype Xh Y. And it makes sense that all the females are normal. Those females could have the genotypes XH XH, or XH Xh (carriers).
Answer:
A. It uses the animal’s cellular machinery to reproduce inside the animal.
Explanation:
I would go with A because since it is a virus it cannot live outside the body and thus needs to rely on host's cell for metabolism as viruses are not capable of having their own metabolism.
