Answer:

variable expressivity; incomplete penetrance

Explanation:

In genetics, variable expressivity refers to the fact that individuals having the same alleles/genes/genotype associated with a particular genetic condition may exhibit different clinical features of this condition. In general, variable expressivity is due to the combination of both genetic and environmental factors. An example of variable expressivity is the Marfan syndrome, where all individuals with this disorder have a dominant mutation in the FBN1 (fibrillin 1) gene and show different degrees of the same phenotype. Moreover, incomplete penetrance (also known as reduced penetrance) refers to the complete absence of a genetic trait or disease in individuals having alleles/genes/genotype associated with the condition. In consequence, individuals with incomplete penetrance do not develop features of the disease. An example of incomplete penetrance is given by those individuals with mutations in BRCA1/BRCA2 genes (associated with an increased risk of developing breast cancer) that do not develop cancer.

The answer would be:

DNA : A A T T G C

mRNA: U U A A C G

The base pairings in mRNA is essentially the same, T to A, G to C however, uracil with substitute thymine to pair up with an Adenine base. In summary:

G to C C to G

Obsession
Negative consequences
Lack of control
Denial

In this patient, he denies that his behavior is self-destructive; even with the concrete evidence that he is being self-destructive (i.e. plays all day even with work to do). There are two descriptions of denial wherein; (1) he denies that what he does cannot be controlled and (2) he denies that what he does leaves a negative impact in his life.

Chloroplast structure and function
Lana71 [14]

Answers:

A) The membranes of the Chloroplast are the  

1) Thylakoid membrane 2) Envelope membrane

B) Calvin cycle occurs within the stroma, while light reactions occur within the thylakoid membrane.

Explanation:

Generally, the chloroplast is made up of the; <u>Thylakoid membrane and Envelop membrane</u>. The thylakoid membrane is basically the region for light absorption, thus making it the site for light reactions within the chloroplast.  

Calvin cycle, which occurs in the stroma, involves light independent reactions. It occurs shortly after the light-dependent reactions, and further breaks down ATP and NADPH, products of the light reactions.

The stroma is located outside the thylakoid membrane.

For the remaining listed organelles:

1) The Cytosol- It’s the liquid space within the cell. The chloroplast can be found floating within the cytosol of any involved plant cell.

2) Thylakoid space- The space within the thylakoid.
