Knowing that the genetic code is universal, scientists use molecular biological methods to insert the human beta-globin gene int

o bacterial cells, hoping the cells will express it and synthesize functional beta-globin protein. Instead, the protein produced was nonfunctional and is found to contain many fewer amino acids than does beta-globin produced by eukaryotic cells. Explain why.

Answer is given below :

Explanation:

  • When the beta-globin gene is inserted into the bacterial chromosome, during insertion, beta-globin forms a stop codon between the coding sequences of beta globin, resulting in a reduced amino peptide. Acid on translation
  • Furthermore beta-globins form a tertiary protein complex with alpha-globin, which in addition to the ham-subgroup forms functional hemoglobin.
  • Since we only put the beta-globin gene on the bacterium-chromosome that is not enough to make a functional protein, we found a non-functional protein

Why is it more common for birds to have nests with a few eggs rather than just one or a lot?
Vlad1618 [11]

Explanation:

The large size of a egg makes it difficult for the female to retain more than a single one egg at a time - carrying eggs would make flying harder and require more energy. (Bird eggs vary in size from the tiny 0.2 gramme eggs of hummingbirds to the enormous 9 kilogram eggs of the extinct elephant bird.)

Just as an aircraft cannot fly if it is overweight, all female birds must dispense with the fertile egg as soon as it is formed. And because the egg is such a protein-rich high-nuitrition prize to all sorts of predators, birds must find a secure place to hatch their eggs. Although birds' eggs appear to be fragile, they are in fact extremely robust. The oval shape applies the same rules of engineering as an arched bridge; the convex surface can withstand considerable pressure without breaking. This is essential if the egg is not to crack under the weight of the sitting bird. It takes 26 pounds of pressure to break a swan's egg and 120 pounds to smash the egg of an ostrich.

If water molecules inside and outside of a cell became non polar , how would the transport of materials in and out of the cell b
postnew [5]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The water will move in and out freely. The material transport which is due to the water transport will be affected.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Water is a partially polar molecules. Many ionic compounds and ions travel inside and outside the cell due to attachment with water molecule.
  • As well as water movement is controlled due to its polar nature through cell membrane. and the cytoplasm and outer environment is separate due to non polar cell membrane.
  • If the water become non polar then the movement through cell membrane will be easy for water. And the molecules dissolved in water will also be transported uncontrollably.
