Answer: operon
Explanation:
An operon is a cluster of genes that are transcribed together to give a single messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule, which therefore encodes multiple proteins (Fig. 16.11). Such polycistronic mRNA is typically found in prokaryotes.
Answer:
1/4 suffer from hemophilia
1/4 are heterozygous
Explanation:
So since they are normal but their son isn't it is assumed that the mom is the carrier since the dad has to be X^HY
X^HY x X^HX^h
Set up a pedigree
X^HX^H X^HX^h
X^HY X^hY
1/4 suffer from hemophilia (X^h)
1/4 are heterozygous (X^HX^h)
Answer:
The protein has a lysine or arginine at it's C-terminal end.
Explanation:
- Given isolated protein indicates the presence of 10 lysines, 5 arginines, and 4 methionines. So, sequence of the protein .
- These results indicate that the sequence of proteins contains lysine or arginine at the end of the C-terminal. Because we have 15 sites that can be separated from trypsin and so it only causes 16 peptides.
Water is essential for good health. Water and other liquids help break down food so that our body can absorb the nutrients. Water also softens stool,which helps prevent constipation.
Answer:
d. The species diversity of plot 2 is greater than that of plot 1.
Explanation:
Species diversity of an area depends on its species richness and species evenness. Species richness is the number of species present in that area. Species evenness measures how evenly these species are distributed.
Here, both plot 1 and plot 2 have same number of species. They both have four species of trees ( maple, birch, oak and pine) hence their species richness is same. However plot 1 has 85% maple trees and the rest three species make the remaining 15%. Plot 2 has more even distribution as 35% of trees are maple trees and birch and oak also have similar frequency with 25% and 35% respectively. Hence, plot 2 has more evenness.
Species diversity depends on both richness and evenness. Since plot 1 and 2 have same richness but plot 2 has more evenness, plot 2 has more species diversity than plot 1.
