For an organism to function properly all the physiological factors should be favorable. These physiological factors include water level, pH, temperature etc. To perform the basic function of the life, it is important to maintain the physiological parameter in a particular range.
In case, these physiological parameters are not balanced, then the body of the organism does not perform well and causes illness.
So, the first blank can be filled with temperature and the second blank can be filled with range.
The answer is: homologous; common; homoplastic.
<span>The bones in the wings of birds and bats are <u>homologous</u> because they derived from a <u>common</u> ancestor, while the wings are <u>homoplastic</u> traits. Homologous structures are similar structures shared by different groups and that are derived from a common ancestor. The similar anatomy of bones in the wings of birds and bats is inherited from a common ancestor of tetrapods (to which birds and bats belong). However, wings are not inherited from the common ancestor of birds and bats. Therefore, wins are homoplastic traits (analogous structures) because they have similar function but they are not inherited from the common ancentor.</span>
Answer: The DNA on the paternal copy of the chromosome will be methylated at the imprinting center, while the DNA on the maternal copy of the chromosome will not be methylated in this region.
Explanation:
Chromosomes are DNA structures associated with proteins such as histones. They are found in the nucleus of cells and contain genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism. Human beings are diploid, meaning that they possess two copies of each of the 23 chromosomes (a total of 46).
Gametes, which are sex cells such as the sperm (produced by the male) and the egg (produced by the female) that are haploid. This means that they possess only one chromosome of each pair. During fertilization, a male gamete fuses with a female gamete to generate a zygote, which will give rise to a new human being. <u>This new individual will possess half of the genetic material from its father and half from its mother. Thus having a total of 46 chromosomes, 23 from each parent</u>.
Genetic imprinting modulates gene expression by chemical modification of DNA and/or modification of chromatin structure. Often, genetic imprinting causes a gene to be expressed only on the chromosome inherited from one of the parents. One example of imprinting is DNA methylation, which is a process by which methyl groups are added to DNA. <u>Methylation modifies DNA function when found in the promoter gene, repressing gene transcription. This means that a methylated gene will not be expressed</u>, that is, it will not produce a protein encoded by that gene. So, if a region of DNA is imprinted in the sperm cell, the paternal chromosome inherited from this sperm will be methylated in the genes of the offspring. And the offspring will only express the maternal copy inherited, which will not be methylated.
Answer:
The smallest size tube that will hold the entire reaction is 0.5ml
Explanation:
25ul (DNA sample) + 25ul (enzyme) + 50ul (buffer) + 400ul (water) = 500ul total
since 1000ul=1ml, then 500ul = 0.5ml
Answer:
The device that mostlikely would not be used P20
Explanation:
P20 is a pipette used to measure and sample volumes of 20ul maximum.
Answer:
The reaction mix will have 400 units of the enzyme.
The working dilution will be 0.8 Units/ul.
Explanation:
The mix has 20ul of the enzyme which is 20Units/ul. Then we have 20ulx20Units/ul= 400 Units of enzyme in the mix.
Since the final volume is 500ul, the final concentration 400Units/500ul=0.8 Units/ul.
