How do the genes in our DNA influence our characteristics? For example, how can a gene determine
whether a person is an albino with very pale skin and hair?
Basically, a gene is a segment of DNA that provides the instructions for making a protein, and
proteins influence our characteristics. This chart describes how two different versions of a gene result
in two different versions of a protein which in turn can result in either normal skin and hair color or
albinism.
DNA Protein Characteristic
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
normal protein enzyme
Normal enzyme that makes the
pigment molecule in skin and
hair
Normal skin and hair
color
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
defective enzyme
Defective enzyme that does
not make this pigment
molecule
Albinism (very pale
skin and hair)
A gene directs the synthesis of a protein by a two-step process.
The first step is transcription of the gene in the DNA.
Transcription produces a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule.
The second step is translation of the mRNA molecule.
Translation produces a protein molecule.
During transcription, the sequence of
nucleotides in a gene in the DNA is
copied to a corresponding sequence
of nucleotides in mRNA.
During translation, the sequence of
nucleotides in the mRNA determines
the sequence of amino acids in the
protein.
After translation, the sequence of amino acids in the protein determines the structure and function of
the protein. Differences in protein function can influence characteristics such as normal skin and hair
color vs. albinism.
Answer:
The correct answer is - stones.
Explanation:
Kidney stones are medically called renal calculi or urolithiasis. These are normally hard and very small minerals and salts made stones that deposites inside your kidneys. Kidney stones can be formed due to several reasons such as an unhealthy diet with higher salt, soda, and sugar constituents, high dose of minerals, dehydration, or less drinking water
To decrease the risk of forming kidney stones or if one is experiencing kidney stone should drink enough water which helps to remove formed or forming deposits of minerals.
Answer: Characteristics: The fins are supported by rays, as the name indicates. In contrast to the cartilaginous fish they have a rigid skeleton. The swim bladder is also a unique feature of most ray-finned fish, enabling them to maintain buoyancy as they move up or down in the water.
Biodiversity increases as the number of populations grow, because a greater population generally means a more diverse one.
However, this is not always true, so I'm not sure what answer they're looking for.
