Answer:
The modified hemoglobin with free imidazole cannot be expected to show cooperativity in oxygen binding. The movement of iron ion takes place up in the plane of heme when binding of one subunit of hemoglobin takes place with oxygen. One of the iron's and oxygen's axial ligands comprise the proximal histidine's imidazole ring.
With the movement of iron into the hemoglobin ring, the pulling of proximal histidine takes place along with it. Therefore, when binding of oxygen takes place with one subunit, a modification also takes place in the intersubunit associations, this also comprises displacement of the alpha helix. This phenomenon plays an essential role in modifying the hemoglobin's tensed state to the relaxed state. The withdrawal or mutation of the imidazole ring from the histidine residue does not further permit the cooperative binding as it is not associated physically with the alpha-helix.
Answer:
E. 6:3:3:2:1:1
Explanation:
Look at the attached picture to see the Punnett square for your problem.
The cross for this is snapdragons who are heterozygous for both traits so the cross would be:
<em>TtRr x TtRr</em>
As you can see in the image, you have the following genotype combinations with the corresponding phenotype combinations:
GENTOTYPE PHENOTYPE NUMBER
TTRR Tall - Red 1
TtRR Tall - Red 2
TTRr Tall - Pink 2
TtRr Tall - Pink 4
TTrr Tall - White 1
Ttrr Tall - White 2
ttRR Short - Red 1
ttRr Short - Pink 2
ttrr Short - White 1
The following phenotype combinations in summary would then be:
Tall - Pink: 6
Tall - Red: 3
Tall - White: 3
Short - Pink: 2
Short - White: 1
Short - Red: 1
So the ratio is 9:3:3:2:1:1
It has been projected that by 2025 b. 2 out of 3 people will suffer from water shortages.
The problem of shortage of water will happen to the altered weather patterns, depletion of ground water, pollution of water, and due to demand-supply problem in increased population sizes of humans. The present scenario is emphasizing more on the sustainable use of water for agricultural and industrial purposes to promote water conservation. This will reduce the proportion of affected people in the future.
