Answer:
The correct answer is: a.
Explanation:
- A Diploid organism possess two copies ( also called alleles) of each autosomal gene, of which one copy of the gene is obtained from one of its parents and the other copy from its other parent.
- During the process of replication, one of the alleles of the GTPase encoding gene undergoes a mis-sense mutation.
- A Mis-sense mutation can be defined as a non-synonymous mutation in which one of the nucleotide in the sequence of the gene gets altered such that it causes a change in the amino acid encoded by the codon (triplet nucleotide message encoding for a single amino acid) formed by the mutated nucleotide. A single amino acid change in the protein, if occurs in the functional site of the protein, can render a protein non-functional.
- Hence, the mis-sense mutation in one of the alleles encoding for the GTPase gene causes the resulting protein produced from the mutated allele to have drastically reduced function (1%).
- A heterozygous cell is one which has one copy of the normal allele and the other copy of the mutated allele of the GTPase encoding gene.
- As one copy of the normal GTPase allele is present in such an individual, it can produce the normal GTPase protein that can assist in the process of cell growth and division.
- Hence, the phenotype(expressed character) of the heterozygous cell will not be affected due to the mutation and it will be able to grow and divide normally.
Answer;
-Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium forms the epidermis of the skin.
-In keratinized stratified squamous epithelial tissue, the cells on the apical (outer) surface are dead.
Explanation;
-Stratified squamous epithelium is a type of tissue found covering and lining parts of the body. Stratified squamous epithelium may be keratinized or nonkeratinized. Non-keratinized surfaces must be kept moist by bodily secretions to prevent them from drying out.
-The cells on the surface of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium are very flat. Not only are they flat, but they are no longer alive. They have no nucleus or organelles. They are filled with a protein called keratin, which is what makes our skin waterproof.
Nucleotides are being named or classified by their bases. They are adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine and uracil. Nucleotides are organic molecules that serve as the monomers, or subunits, of nucleic acids like DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).
Answer:
The scientist's conclusion is most likely unreliable because he just interviewed people watching movies in the theatre. He should have interviewed an equal number of people from the theatre and from home to get reliable results. According to the scientific method for designing an experiment, the experiment or survey conducted by scientists is not correct. Hence, the scientist's conclusion is wrong because his method of experimentation was wrong.
