Answer: The parents of the white cat would be a dominant white cat and a recessive colored coat cat. The parents of the autosomal tabby would be a dominant tabby and either a recessive brown cat, striped cat, or a recessive black cat.
Explanation:
The genotypes and phenotypes would be : WW- Dominant white and ww- recessive color coat cat; their offspring would be 100% recessive white kittens
TT- dominant tabby and a recessive brown cat; their children would be 100%- dominant brown tabby
TT- dominant tabby and a recessive striped cat; children would be 100%- brown striped
TT- dominant tabby and a recessive black cat; children would be 100%- tabby kittens
Answer:
C) protein possesses a signal for localization within the Golgi apparatus.
Explanation:
Protein targeting or sorting is a process by which synthesized proteins are transported to their appropriate localizations in the cell or outside it. Proteins can be targeted to the inner space of an organelle (such as Golgi apparatus or endoplasmic reticulum) or its membrane, plasma membrane, or to exterior of the cell via secretion.
Usually, protein contains signal sequence on the N terminus that is involved in destination targeting.
Answer:
Electricity flows by the movement of electrons through conductors. If a bird perches on a wire with two feet there is no motivation to go through the birds' body so electrons choose the path of least resistance and continue to flow along the wire.

Question: When a neuron responds to a particular neurotransmitter by opening gated ion channels, the neurotransmitter is serving as which part of the signal pathway?
A) relay molecule
B) transducer
C) signal molecule
D) response molecule
Answer:
C) signal molecule
Explanation:
Signaling cells produce specific chemicals or compounds called signaling molecules. These signaling molecules arrive at their target cells and bind to the cell surface or intracellular receptors. Binding of the signaling molecules to their receptors present on the target cells is followed by signal transduction and production of desired response by the target cells.
Neurotransmitters serve as signal molecules that bind to the receptors present on the membranes of the postsynaptic neurons to bring about changes in the membrane potential. Their binding may trigger the opening of the gated ion channels resulting in a change in the membrane potential followed by generation of inhibitory or excitatory responses.
Wrong. Most of the U.S. experienced significant in- creases in precipitation and streamflow (and de- creases in drought) during the second half of the 20th century
