Choose all that apply. Which of the following is true in a comparison of your skin cells to your kidney cells?

1 answer:

3 0

Given our understanding of the mechanisms behind genetic expression, we can confirm that when comparing skin cells to kidney cells, the only correct option is option 4 which states that the cells "transcribe many different genes".

The human genome encodes for every gene in the human body. This genome sequence is stored in the chromosomes of cells. These chromosomes are identical for every single cell in the human body. Therefore, every cell contains the same DNA, genes, and transcription factors in its chromosomes.

What allows each cell type in the human body the ability to differentiate from one another and complete vastly different functions is the way in which these genes are expressed. Though every cell contains the entire genetic code, only some genes for each cell are transcribed, which results in a different combination of proteins in each cell and leads to the difference between skin and kidney cells (as just one of many examples).

Describe the characteristics of fungi.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Characteristics of Fungi

Fungi are eukaryotic, non-vascular, non-motile and heterotrophic organisms.

They may be unicellular or filamentous.

They reproduce by means of spores.

Fungi exhibit the phenomenon of alternation of generation.

Fungi lack chlorophyll and hence cannot perform photosynthesis.

Identify the type of mutation that occurred and explain in what way it affected the protien

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The type of mutation that occurs when in the DNA strand there is a change from guanine to cytosine is a nonsense mutation, since the triplet that should encode the amino acid encodes a stop codon and the protein cannot be completely synthesized.

Explanation:

The nonsense mutation consists of a change in one of the bases of the stranded DNA, which is transcribed into an altered mRNA, producing a stop codon, instead of an amino acid.

In the table it is observed that the CCA codon is a stop codon that cuts off the protein synthesis prematurely, leaving it incomplete and probably non-functional.

Sometimes this type of mutation can alter the sequence of amino acids but the protein may be complete enough to partially fulfill its function.
