Answer:

I'm not quite sure what your looking for

Explanation: scientists can take the genes of one successful crop, animal, etc, and insert that gene into future things so all offspring will be successful. This is called genetically modifying. Another thing scientists can utilize genes for is cloning. There have been ideals of the perfect human for many years and now scientists are trying to alter these genes to have perfect offspring according to your standards.

Answer:

A general decrease in transcriptional activation

Explanation:

When acetyl groups are added to histone proteins by acetyltransferase enzymes, the 30-nm chromatin fiber will not be formed because the proteins are prevented from doing so. This further destabilizes the chromatin structure and allows the occurrence of transcription. However, raising the cells to  40°C does not allow the acetyltransferase enzyme to function and hence the acetyl group will be hindered from being added to the histone protein which is the main target of the enzymes. Thus, transcription activation will be blocked because the chromatin and nucleosomes would remain stabilized.

Which parasitic protist evades the host immune system by altering its surface proteins with each generation?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Trypanosoma brucei

Explanation:

T. brucei is a unicellular eukaryotic parasite that causes sleeping sickness. This organism has an elongated body, central nucleus, only an elongated mitochondria housing the kinetoplast, where the mitochondrial DNA is located; It has a scourge that gives it motility. Its undulating cell membrane, as a result of flagellar movements, is covered with glycoproteins that elicit little immune reaction, allowing this parasite to go unnoticed.

This organism infects the host by evading the host's immune system by altering its surface proteins with each generation.

Answer:

The human body is able to synthesize them:  proteins, fats

Contains nitrogen in the amine group : proteins

Made according to instructions from DNA: proteins

Explanation:

The cells of the human body synthesize proteins from the transcription and translation processes.

Fats and carbohidrates are ingested in the diet and metabolized by the body. However some types of fat such as cholesterol is synthesized by the human body. Same as phospholipids that are part of the membranes.

Proteins are formed by hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon. Amino acids are characterized  for owning a carboxyl group (- COOH) and an amino group (-NH2)
