Answer:
While <u>water soluble</u> hormones can travel freely in the blood, <u>lipid soluble </u>hormones require a carrier protein because they are not soluble in the aqueous plasma
Explanation:
The water-soluble hormones such as insulin are dissolved in the blood and are carried along with the blood to their target cells.
However, lipid-soluble hormones such as steroid hormones (cortisol) and thyroxine are hydrophobic in nature. These hormones are not dissolved in water-based blood plasma. So, these lipid-soluble hormones are carried through the carrier proteins.
Answer: B. Melting temperatures of primer should be between 55-80 degree Celsius.
Explanation:
Bacause the melting temperature controls the binding of the primers to your template DNA. At melting temperature 50% of the primer molecules are bound to their corresponding target sequence. If the difference in melting temperature between the two primers is too high, it might be difficult to find experimental conditions where both primers can bind to their target.
DNA ligase is the enzyme that repair irregularities and breaks in the back bone of double stranded DNA. The enzyme function by sealing the repair in the DNA, it seals recombination fragments and it connects okazaki fragments during replication of DNA.
If a mutation reduce the amount of ligase, all the functions of the ligase enzyme listed above will be affected negatively.
