6. In a Bio 207 lab you determine that the cost of transport for two fish from different species is 1 kJ/km for fish one, and 10

kJ/km for fish two. Provide an estimate of the swimming speed of each fish assuming that a) both fish have the same metabolic rate; b) fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one; and c) fish one has a metabolic rate that is 100 times smaller than the metabolic rate of fish two. Note that the ratio of metabolic rate to speed defines the cost of transport in units of energy/distance.

Answer:

b) fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one.

Explanation:

The fish one covers 1 kilometer distance by using 1 kilo Joule of energy while on the other hand, fish two covers consumes 10 kilo Joules of energy for covering the same distance i.e. one kilometer. This means that fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one. This high metabolic rate may be due to the higher mass of the fish two which needs more energy for the movement to cover distance of one kilometer.

The Nuclei acids contains 2 sugar ; ribose is found in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA. Deoxyribose alludes to the way that one of the hydroxyl (OH) bunches is absent from this sugar.Lastly Nitrogen bases There are four distinctive nitrogen bases are found in DNA.

Which of the outcomes could potentially result if a mutation in the gene encoding the Gα subunit eliminates its GTPase activity?
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The prime function of the GTPase activity of the G-alpha protein is to perform the hydrolysis of the attached guanosine triphosphate or GTP. Upon combination with the GTP, the G-alpha protein becomes activated, and when hydrolysis of GTP takes place to guanosine diphosphate or GDP, the G-alpha subunit becomes inactivated.  

Therefore, the activity of the GTPase provides the G protein-coupled signaling mechanism's regulation. In case, if the mutation takes place within the gene encrypting the G-alpha subunit, then the inhibition of GTPase activity occurs, which would eventually result in the following outcomes:  

1. The stimulation of the signaling pathway may take place for a prolonged time duration, eventually causing an unwanted differentiation of the cell.  

2. There would be a spontaneous enhancement in the concentration of cyclic-AMP within the cell.  

3. The activation of the G-alpha subunit would take place for a prolonged time duration.
