Answer:
The same ligand can bind to different receptors causing different responses (e.g.. acetylcholine). On the other hand, different ligands binding to different receptors can produce the same cellular response (e.g. glucagon, epinephrine).
Explanation:
The Hardy-Weinberg principle is used to characterize the distribution of the different genotype frequencies in a population which are not evolving. In the Hardy-Weinberg equation,
the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype is denoted by
;
the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype is denoted by
;
the frequency of the heterozygous genotype is denoted by 2pq;
the frequency of the recessive allele is denoted by q;
the frequency of the dominant allele is denoted by p.
Answer:
It transmits genetic information to the next generation
Explanation:
DNA stores information on how the cell should be made and ‘run’. This is why it is critical that its integrity is well preserved. Otherwise, mutations on DNA can be lethal to the cell. In higher cells, DNA is protected in the nucleolus. To pass down the genetic information, DNA is replicated by DNA polymerases and then during cell division, either copy of the pair goes to each of the two daughter cells.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
proteins make up every thing
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.
