The difference between the two diseases that could lead to the same basic reproduction number is : One disease has lower transmission rate and a longer recovery period than the other. ( B )

Basic reproduction number ( r0) represents the number of people who gets infected through an infected person, and for a disease to be highly infectious its ( r ) number will have to higher than 1. and The value of r0 is determined based on certain factors which are :

  • The Infectious period
  • contact rate and mode of transmission

Therefore for the  two viral diseases to have the same basic reproduction number one of the disease will have a lower transmission rate and a longer recovery period than the other

Where do scientists obtain adult stem cells?<br> saliva<br> pancreas<br> skin<br> bone marrow
Alex17521 [72]
<span> Embryonic stem cell research is kind of a dead area now since there is no way to control the differentiation. Most research is being done on adult stem cells to help map and control the differentiation process.

Stem-cells from aborted fetuses - The government doesn't sponsor this, if it is done it is by private companies not located in the USA. You could try researching umbilical cord stem cells to be somewhere near your topic. They come from the afterbirth of normal deliveries.

You could do a much easier report by covering cloning of mice through stem-cell technology. It is happening and helping scientists understand diseases. </span>

Mike earned scores of 88,91,75,and 72 on four math tests determine his score on the fifth test if his average for five tests was
My name is Ann [436]

Explanation : x = 79 marks

The marks scored by Mike on four math test are 88,91,75 and 72.

Average of marks, A = 81

Let in fifth test he scores x marks.

The formula for finding average is :

A=\dfrac{sum\ of\ scored\ marks}{no.\ of \ tests}

81=\dfrac{88+91+75+72+x}{5}

\dfrac{326+x}{5}=81

x=79

In the fifth test he scores 79 marks.

Hence, this is the required solution.

If a mutation occurred that increased the number of exons in a sequence of DNA, what impact would this have on the protein forme
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>An increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in another protein with a longer amino acid sequence.</em>

<u>Exons are the coding part of a gene as opposed to introns. After transcription, the non-coding part of the gene - the introns - are removed by splicing and the exons are joined back together. The final RNA that will undergo translation consists of only exons. </u>

The longer the exons in a gene, the more the codons present in the corresponding mRNA from the gene, and the more the number of amino acids that would be translated from the mRNA. A longer amino acid chain would result in a different protein.

Hence, a mutation that causes an increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in a different protein with a longer amino acid sequence.
