Mutations in which of the following cells would get passed on to the next generation?
I. sperm
II. Skin cell
III. Egg
IV. Neuron
A. II, III, and IV
B. III only
C.I and III
D. I, III, and IV

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. I and III

Explanation:

A mutation needs to occur in a gamete cell in order to be passed down to the next generation.

If it occurs in a somatic (body) cell, the mutation will only be present in that organism.

On the other hand, in a gamete cell, the mutation will pass down because gamete cells are directly involved in the genetic makeup of the offspring.

So, since sperm and egg cells are gametes, mutations in those cells would get passed on.

The correct answer is C. I and III

Biology Question

If the frequency of an autosomal dominant allele is 0.6 . Calculate the frequency of recessive phenotype in a population of 6000​

Answers

Answer:

First thing is that word “autonomous” given in the question is actually “ autosomal”.

Now let's start solution:

Frequency of dominant allele “A” is denoted by p.

Here p = 0.6

Frequency of recessive allele “a” is denoted by q.

According to Hardy - Weinberg equilibrium

p + q = 1

Hence q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

Now in question what is asked is about frequency of recessive phenotype (aa).

According to Hardy - Wienberg equilibrium frequency of recessive phenotype is q2 (q square).

Frequency of recessive phenotype is = q2 = 0.4 x 0.4 = 0.16

Now Number of recessive phenotype in a population of 10000 is

= frequency of recessive phenotype x total population

= q2 x 10000

= 0.16 x 10000

= 1600

Suppose an experimenter becomes proficient with a technique that allows her to move DNA sequences within a prokaryotic genome. If a researcher moves the repressor gene (lacI), along with its promoter, to a position at some several thousand base pairs away from its normal position, which of the following results would be expected?
A) The repressor will no longer bind to the operator.
B) The repressor will no longer bind to the inducer.
C) The lac operon will be expressed continuously.
D) The lac operon will function normally.

Answers

Answer:

D) The lac operon will function normally.

Explanation:

The promoter area can be described as the area that causes the transcription to initiate for a particular gene. Promoters may be near the genes from which they initiate transcription or they may display multiple scenes upstream. The lock operon works normally because the promoter area can still enable transcription on many base pairs. Detects repression promoter and works normally.so correct option is D) The lac operon will function normally.

If a researcher moved the repressor gene of lac I, along with its promoter; the lac operon will function normally. Option D is correct.

Promotor:

It is the genetic sequence that is recognized by the RNA polymerase to start the transcription.

Here, researcher moved the repressor gene of lac I , along with its promoter.

Therefore, transcription starts, it will express the repressor gene also because repressor gene was moved with promotor.

Given enough time, if the area continues to experience a lack of rainfall, it will eventually become:__________a. savanna.b. temperate rainforest.c. shrubland, grassland, or woodland.d. taiga.

Answers

Answer:

Savanna

Explanation:

Lack of rainfall over a period of time may convert a temperate deciduous forest into a Savanna.

Grasslands are characterized by a domination of grasses rather than large shrubs or trees. Savanna is a grassland with a few scattered individual trees. Savannas are always found in areas that are quite hot. The annual rainfall in a typical savanna may range from about 76.2-101.6 cm. Some savanna regions may receive as low as 15.24 cm -25.4 cm of rain in a year, followed by a long period of drought when fires can occur.

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The movement of particles of the matter increases with the increase in temperature.

The particles gain kinetic energy with increasing temperature and move in faster rate.

For example: When we blow a balloon with our mouth, we increases the temperature inside the balloon, the particles in the balloon gain kinetic energy that leads to the faster movement of gas particles in the balloon and they collide with each other and surface of balloon, after a peak the balloon get burst because of high kinetic energy and high collision.

Physiology and anatomy problem-solving skills can be vital when you're the one taking a patient's history or doing the initial assessment. If you remember the functions of different organs and their anatomical relationships, you can come up with hypotheses and ask the relevant questions to test them. You will also know what to be alert for when caring for the patient later. A fair, fat, forty-three-year-old woman had been having episodes of griping abdominal pain after fatty meals. One day she ate French onion soup with lots of cheese and suffered severe enough pain that she called in sick. Her supervisor pointed out that she always gets sick after fatty foods. She went to the clinic and the nurse in triage took her vitals and history. The nurse noticed that the whites of her eyes were yellow and that she had tenderness on the right side of her abdomen. Blood pressure and heart rate were normal.
Based on this initial assessment, what organs do you think might be involved in this woman's illness, and why?
Choose the two most likely organs involved in her illness
a. Liver, because of the yellow coloration in her eyes, which indicates that the liver is not processing bilirubin.
b. Spleen, because of the pain on the right side of her abdomen.
c. Gall bladder, because it stores bile and might be related to the bilirubin buildup in her blood.
d. Stomach, because the pain occurs after eating
e. Heart, because her heart rate has not increased in response to pain.
f. Kidneys, because they should be cleaning the wastes out of her blood-her yellow eyes indicate that waste is building up in her blood.
g. Pancreas, because of the elevated blood glucose.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: C. Gallbladder, because it stores bile and could be related to the accumulation of bilirubin in the blood.

Explanation:

The gallbladder is responsible for releasing bile juices that, together with gastrointestinal juices, degrade and metabolize fat molecules.

In people who have an unhealthy life, and gallbladder problems, these juices do not break down fat molecules and this is how these people suffer breakdowns, severe pain in the area of the middle third of the body, floating stools due to the high fat content .

The possible or most frequent problem of people who are like this 40-year-old woman is usually the accumulation of sialoliths in the bile duct.

The bile that is released by the gallbladder is necessary to drain properly into the intestines, if it cannot evacuate due to obliteration of the duct due to sialolithiasis or other reason, the gallbladder can become infected, generating a lot of pain and even possible sepsis.

Answer:

A and C

A: Liver, because of the yellow coloration in her eyes, which indicates that the liver is not processing bilirubin.

C: Gall bladder, because it stores bile and might be realted to tbe billrubin buildup in her blood.

Explanation:

 The combination of trouble with fats and yellow discoloration should make you think about the hepatobiliary system. Now you have a hypothesis about what's wrong with this patient and can make a direct assessment toward supporting or disproving that hypothesis rather than asking a lot of questions that may not be relevant.

Select one:
a. They are examples on a structure called a microfilaments
b. They are all structures found in prokaryotic cells
c. They are microtubules
d. They are found in the nuclei of eukaryotic cells

Answers

Answer: c

Explanation: Spindle fiber: is a microtubules that comes out from the centrosomes when the cell is preparing for division. They are responsible for the segregation of sister chromatids and movement of chromosomes during mitotic and meiotic division.

Flagella: a slender threadlike structure, especially a microscopic appendage that enables many protozoa, bacteria, spermatozoa, etc. to swim.

The thread-like structure is called chromosomes.

This can conclude that microtubules are common in spindle fiber and flagella.

The removal of sections of RNA, called introns, occur at which regulation step in eukaryotic cells? (1 point)
o mRNA life span
O post-translation
O RNA processing
ochromatin remodeling

Answers

Answer:

post-translation

Explanation:

When a eukaryotic gene is transcribed in the nucleus, the primary transcript (freshly made RNA molecule) isn't yet considered a messenger RNA. Instead, it's an "immature" molecule called a pre-mRNA.

The pre-mRNA has to go through some modifications to become a mature mRNA molecule that can leave the nucleus and be translated. These include splicing, capping, and addition of a poly-A tail, all of which can potentially be regulated – sped up, slowed down, or altered to result in a different product.

Most pre-mRNA molecules have sections that are removed from the molecule, called introns, and sections that are linked or together to make the final mRNA, called exons. This process is called splicing.

In the process of alternative splicing, different portions of an mRNA can be selected for use as exons. This allows either of two (or more) mRNA molecules to be made from one pre-mRNA.

Answer:

RNA processing

Explanation:

RNA processing. Splicing, capping, and addition of a poly-A tail to an RNA molecule can be regulated, and so can exit from the nucleus. Different mRNAs may be made from the same pre-mRNA by alternative splicing.

If an experimenter wants to use the GFP method but needs to detect the presence or absence of several proteins at the same time, he can take advantage of mutational variants of GFP that emit what light?

Answers

Answer:

different colors

Explanation:

The green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a type of protein widely used in molecular biology laboratories because this protein can be used to detect the expression of proteins and to identify cellular structures. This protein displays green fluorescence when it is excited by blue light and, in the last years, many variants of the GFP protein have been developed. The altered GFP proteins react to distinct wavelengths of light, thereby emitting light to different colors. The mutants forms of the GFP protein are produced by genome engineering techniques that generate modifications capable of altering the folding of the normal GFP protein.
