Answer

CF causes thick mucus that clogs certain organs, such as the lungs, pancreas, and intestines. This may cause malnutrition, poor growth, frequent respiratory infections, breathing problems, and chronic lung disease.

The Symptoms of Cystic Fibrosis:

Chronic coughing (dry or coughing up mucus)
Recurring chest colds.
Wheezing or shortness of breath.
Frequent sinus infections.
Very salty-tasting skin.

The C. elegans genome is about 100,000kb. If C elegans genomic DNA is digested with XbaI, which recognizes and cleaves the seque
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

25000 fragments

Explanation:

A restriction enzyme can cut a random DNA sequence once per every 4^n where n = number of bases in the recognition site of enzyme.

There are 6 bases in Xbal's recognition site (TCTAGA) so it will cut once per every 4^6 = 4096 bases (4kb).

Total genomic size = 100000kb

So expected number of fragments = Total genomic size/Size of one fragment

= 100000/4

= 25000 fragments

How are the studies performed on rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss) and the moss Pleurozium schreberi and the desert shrub Atr
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Both studies support the concept that species operate within a narrow optimum temperature range and are coupled to enzymatic activity.

Explanation:

The studies shown in the question above started from the same concept to establish the scientific experiment and had the same objective related to the investigation as temperature changes in the environment where these organisms live influences the enzymatic activity and, therefore, the functioning of their organism, being able to including modifying the environment around them. In summary, we can say that the studies sought to support the concept that species operate within a narrow range of optimal temperature and are coupled with enzymatic activity.

Which of the following organelles is the principal and distinquishing feature of the eukaryotic cell? A. ribosomes B. chloroplas
dsp73

Answer:

E. Nucleus

Explanation:

All living organisms were classified into three major domains viz: Eukarya, Archaea and Bacteria. Eukarya are referred to as EUKARYOTES while the other two domains are collectively referred to as PROKARYOTES.

The major basis of this classification is the presence or absence of a membrane bound NUCLEUS. Eukaryotes are organisms characterized by the possession of a membrane-bound nucleus that houses their genetic material (DNA) while prokaryotes lack a nucleus and hence, their genetic material is found naked in the cytoplasm. Although, prokaryotic cells lack other membrane-bound organnelles like Chloroplast, mitochondria etc. but nucleus is the basis of this classification:

EU meaning TRUE, KARYA meaning NUCLEUS, hence Eukarya means organisms will true nucleus.
