Answer:

One of the most famous water towers in Illinois is the Chicago water tower built in 1869 by William W. Boyington. The huge tower was built to pump water from Lake Michigan.  This tower is a very rare tower because it is also one of the few towers to survive the great chicago fire in 1871. This water tower has had a positive affect on the people of chicago providing water for them.

Explain why a glycine residue at position 12 of the G protein Ras is only active in the presence of growth factors but Ras with
sasho [114]

Explanation:

At position 12 of G protein Ras there is a normal amino acid attached to it called Glycine. Which make Ras protein a highly controlled protein. However, there is another amino acid called aspartate at 12 position which make Ras vulnerable by the formation of weak GTPase enzyme activity and GTP binding. Which prevent Ras from turning off. This the reason why aspartate in oncogenic. Furthermore, weak binding of GTP has influence because its binding can not be hydrolyzed.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

c) microevolution

Explanation:

Microevolution is the change in allelic frequencies within a population over time.

If natural selection favored birds with beaks and small bodies, that means that the frequency of that phenotype (beak and small body) increased while the frequency of birds with body and large beaks decreased.

In this example we see that in the Darwin's finches population, the allelic frequencies - reflected in the  phenotype - changed over time as a consequence of the drought.
