Red foxes have three different types of coat color: red, cross, and black/silver. These coat colors are controlled by a single l

ocus with two alleles, R and S. The alleles are incompletely dominant, which means that a combination of them produces a third phenotype in which both are expressed. Suppose you went to Yellowstone National Park and counted how many foxes you saw of each color-phase. You see 58 red-phase (RR), 32 cross-phase (RS), and 10 black/silver-phase (SS) foxes. Given your data, can you estimate the frequency of the R allele?
74%

Answer:

74%

Explanation:

The frequency in such cases (diallelic cases) is estimated by following formula which is attached in the image:

So as per our question, the frequency of the "R allele" as per data given below will be as under:

58 red-phase (RR)

32 cross-phase (RS)

10 black/silver-phase (SS) foxes

Total plants = 58 + 32 + 10 = 100

f(R) = 58 x 2 + 32/ 2 (58+32+10)

    = 116 + 32 / 200

     = 148/200

     = 0.74 i.e. 74%

Adenylate cyclases (ACs) are the membrane-bound glycoproteins that convert ATP to cAMP and pyrophosphate.
sasho [114]

Adenylate cyclases (ACs) are the membrane-bound glycoproteins that convert ATP to cAMP and pyrophosphate.

When activated by G-protein Gs, adenylate cyclases (ACs), which are membrane-bound glycoproteins, catalyze the synthesis of cAMP from ATP.

Different AC isoforms are widely expressed in various tissues that participate in regulatory systems in response to particular stimuli.

Humans have 9 different AC isoforms, with AC5 and AC6 thought to be particularly important for cardiac activities.

Nitric oxide has an impact on the activity of AC6, hence the protein's nitrosylation may control how it works. However, little is known about the structural variables that affect nitrosylation in ACs and how they relate to G's.

We predict the cysteines that are prone to nitrosylation using this 3D model, and we use virtual ligand screening to find potential new AC6 ligands.

According to our model, the AC-Gs interface's Cys174 in G's and Cys1004 in AC6 (subunit C2) are two potential residues that could experience reversible nitrosylation.

Deine kinetic energy and thermal energy. Describe what
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermal energy comes from a substance whose molecules and atoms are vibrating faster due to a rise in temperature. Heat energy is another name for thermal energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object. As thermal energy comes from moving particles, it is a form of kinetic energy.

How would you account for the fact that fossils of fish are not present in the older layers of rock?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The fish did not yet exist when the old layers of rocks were deposited. In fact, animals with hard parts did not evolve until about 600 million years ago, which is only about 13% of the 4.5 billion year age of the Earth. Multicellular animals without hard parts left tracks in older sediments, but had no fossilize-able body parts.
