Which scenario supports the ""one gene–one enzyme"" hypothesis of metabolic disease causation?

Chemistry
1 answer:
damaskus [11]2 years ago
4 0

The scenario that supports the "one gene-one enzyme" hypothesis of metabolic disease causation is Phenylketonuria (PKU). This disease (PKU) is caused by the failure to produce a functional variant of an enzyme.

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic inherited disorder associated with a decreased metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine.

PKU is caused by a mutation in the gene responsible for encoding a key enzyme needed to break down phenylalanine.

Untreated PKU may lead to diverse health problems which include brain damage, intellectual disability, seizures, mental disorders, etc.

calculate the freezing point of 3.46 gram of a compound X in 160 gram of benzene when a separate sample of X was vaporized it's
Temka [501]

Answer: The freezing point of 3.46 gram of a compound X in 160 gram of benzene is 4.38^0C

Explanation:

The relation of density and molar mass is:

d=\frac{PM}{RT}

where

d = density = 3.27 g/ L

P = pressure of the gas  = 773 torr = 1.02 atm   (760 torr = 1atm)

M = molar mass of the gas  = ?

T = temperature of the gas = 116^0C=(116+273)K=389K

R = gas constant  = 0.0821Latm/Kmol

M=\frac{dRT}{P}=\frac{3.27g/L\times 0.0821Latm/Kmol\times 389K}{1.02atm}=102.3g/mol

The relation of depression in freezing point with molality:

\Delta T_f=k_f\times m

\Delta T_f = depression in freezing point = T_f^0-T_f = 5.45-T_f

k_f = freezing point constant  = 5.1

m = molality = \frac{\text {moles of X}}{\text {weight of solvent in kg}}=\frac{3.46\times 1000}{102.3\times 160}=0.21

5.45-T_f=5.1\times 0.21

T_f=4.38^0C

Thus the freezing point of 3.46 gram of a compound X in 160 gram of benzene is 4.38^0C

how many gallons of water did a truck fill up if it's weight before the fill up was 3547 lbs and afterwards was 4924 lbs?
musickatia [10]

Answer: depending on the method, 138-139 (imperial) gallons, or 626 L

Explanation:

The wt of water is 4924-3547 lb = 1377 lb = 1377/2.2 kg = 626 kg = 626 L

1gallon = 4.5 L (it does where I come from and who still measures things in imperial anyway?) so I guess  that is 139 gallons

or alternatively, I recall from distant childhood, “a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter” which means 1 gallon = 10 lb, so 1377 lb = ~138 gallons

A beaker of nitric acid is neutralized with dilute aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide.Write a net ionic equation for this rea
Soloha48 [4]
Complete balanced equation: 2HNO₃  +  Ca(OH)₂  →  Ca(NO₃)₂  +  2H₂O

Ionized equation (with spectator ions): 
   2H⁺  +  2NO₃⁻  +  Ca²⁺  +  2OH⁻   →  Ca²⁺  +  2NO₃⁻  +  2H₂O

By eliminating the ions that are the same of both sides of the equation (spectator ions):
    
2H⁺  +   2OH⁻   →    2H₂O    [Net Ionic Equation]

If the sun is next to the earth on the left, and the moon is next to the earth on the right, what type of tide is it?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

When the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment (at the time of the new or full moon), the solar tide has an additive effect on the lunar tide, creating extra-high high tides, and very low, low tides—both commonly called spring tides.
