What are homologous chromosomes?

Biology
1 answer:
Leto [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is a. chromosomes that are similar in their size, shape, and gene content.

Explanation:

A homologous chromosome is the chromosome which is similar in shape, size, centromere position and they contain the same genes at the same locus also.  

One homologous chromosome comes from the father and the other homologous chromosomes come from the mother. These chromosomes have the same gene at the same locus but the alleles of that gene can be different in homologous chromosomes.  

The homologous chromosome separates during the meiosis so that the gamete has half the number of chromosomes. So the correct answer is a.

Which choice best describes the antimicrobial activities in the mouth?
kykrilka [37]

The antimicrobial activities in the mouth are hydrochloric acid denatures proteins and killing many microbes.

The capability of an hydrochloric acid activating pathogen-killing compounds is not a part of insect immunity,There has recently been an increase in interest in trehalose metabolism for therapeutic applications due to trehalose's relevance in numerous pathogenic species.The most significant biosynthetic process is the enzyme TPP (trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase) (OtsAB).

Here, five important nematode and bacterial pathogens' recombinant TPPs, including three new members of this protein family, are compared for their enzyme characteristics.

The kinetics of the hydrolysis of trehalose-6-phosphate show that all five enzymes display burst-like kinetic behaviour, which is characterised by a decrease in enzymatic rate beyond the pre-steady state.

The observed super-stoichiometric burst amplitudes can be explained by many global conformational changes that occur in members of this enzyme family during substrate processing.
