Answer:
Cystic fibrosis mutation is recessive to normal allele because only one functional or normal allele is enough to produce a functional protein. So, if mutation is present in one allele then also, a normal protein can be made from normal allele. The presence of normal protein prevents the expression of disease.
In addition, mutated allele only results in the loss of function of protein which can be compensated by the expression of normal allele. It does not add any toxic effect to the protein. Consequently, the disease is inherited in autosomal recessive fashion.
In contrast, Huntington mutation not only alters the structure of the functional protein but also adds toxicity to it. The altered protein is enable to interact with 100s of other proteins and inhibit or decrease their function. So, if only one allele is present then also, the mutated protein will be produced and it will result in the phenotype. Consequently, it is inherited as autosomal dominant fashion.
Answer:
tertiary structure
Interactions among the amino acid side chains within a single protein molecule determine the protein's tertiary structure. Tertiary structure is the most important of the structural levels in determining, for example, the enzymatic activity of a protein.

Answer:
80 dB
Explanation:
Sound intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance traveled by the sound.
Thus;
r1^2 divide by r2^2 = L2divideL1
where r= distance (m)
L= sound intensity (decibal dB)
8squared divide by 4 squared = L2 divide 20 dB
L2 = 4 × 20
L2= 80 dB
This means that the sound is increased from 20 dB to 80 dB.
The answer is A. amino acids. Hope this helps!!!
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The life of a plant alternates between haploid and diploid generations. From a fully matured diploid plant (2n) which is known as sporophytic generation a lot of spores which are haploid are produced by the process of meiosis. By the process of mitosis, these spores then develop into new multi-cellular plant which is also haploid just like spores (n), this phase of plant life cycle is known as gametophytic phase. This haploid plant is capable of producing gametes (n) which are also haploid. When two such gametes from the same or different plant fuse with each other a diploid cell is produced which is known as zygote (2n). This zygote subsequently divides and grows into a diploid plant which is a part of sporophytic generation. This is how the entire life cycle of various plants alternate between gametophytic and sporophytic phase.
This diploid plant then later again produces spores and the cycle of reproduction goes on in the same manner as described above.
