Which one of the following choices best represents a short-term benefit of cardiorespiratory fitness?
Kobotan [32]
C - it increases stamina and reduces fatigue.

While stress and boredom reduction are also true, they are not cardiovascular benefits in this case. For that reason, answer C is the correct one. When one starts being physically active for a certain amount of time, increased stamina and reduced fatigue will follow.

A mutation in a gene in the fruit fly Drosophila was found to affect eye color. The protein affected was found to be completely
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. A reasonable explanation for the change in levels of protein is that the mutation occurs in the promoter of the gene, within several hundred base pairs of the start of transcription.

Explanation:

In genetics, a promoter can be described as a region where the RNA polymerase binds initially and starts transcription. The promoter is usually present near to the gene that has to be transcribed. The rate of transcription is controlled by the promoter region too. Hence, the correct option is D. The promoter region for the eye colour was changed due to mutation.

Other options are false because a change in a codon or base pair would have changed proteins being formed and would not have slowed the process.

6. Delete any base (between the READING FRAME, excluding the start and stop codons) and show the change in the amino acid sequen
kati45 [8]
This is the DNA. I'm going to only use the upper strand to demonstrate what this strand would code for before and after a single bp deletion (so write it as mRNA). I will also write it how it's easier to see this which is to split them up into the 3 base codon system. Note that you don't need to know the amino acid code - you use a table to find these.

ORIGINAL (mRNA on top, Amino Acid (AA) on bottom:

5'-AGC GGG AUG AGC GCA UGU GGC GCA UAA CUG-3'
    SER  GLY  MET SER ALA  CYS GLY ALA  STOP LEU 

Note that the protein would stop being made at the stop codon and the LEU wouldn't matter at the end...

Now, I will remove one bp...(I bolded it up top). Rewrite the mRNA and find the corresponding AA...

NEW
5'-AGC GGG AUG GCG CAU GTG GCG CAU AAC UG-3'
   SER  GLY  MET  ALA  HIS   VAL  ALA   HIS  ASN .....

Completely different amino acid sequence after the methionine (MET). The stop codon is gone...the protein would continue being translated until it reaches another stop codon...so not what was supposed to be made!

In your own words, explain why a virus such as the rhinovirus, which relies on close contact to spread, might evolve to favor le
Zielflug [23.3K]

Rhinoviruses are transmitted through the air or via contact. We might expect this sort of transmission to require a fairly healthy host (one who gets out and comes into contact with others) and, hence, to select against virulent strains. If we take precautions and try to stay away from people or avoid any contact with people, more hand-washing stations, increased attention to sanitization, and isolation of patients will help to reduce the transmission of the disease and, in the process, may favor the evolution of less virulent strains of the virus.

In many states, the legal limit for all bacteria present in pasteurized milk is not to exceed 20,000 CFU/mL. You have been away
zaharov [31]

Answer:

a. The formula for finding the number of colonies in a given volume is,  

CFU/ml, here CFU is the colony forming units or the number of colonies formed in a volume plated in ml × dilution

The dilution factor given in the question is 1 × 10⁻⁴ and the number of colonies given is 186. Therefore, the number of bacteria present in the given 1 ml of the milk is,  

CFU/ ml = 186 / 1 × 10⁻⁴ = 186 × 10⁴.  

Hence, the concentration of bacteria in the milk is 186 × 10⁴ CFU/ml.  

b) The limit of the bacterial concentration in the pasteurized milk is 20000 CFU/ml, however, it can be seen that the sample of the milk possess more concentration of bacteria than the desired value. Therefore, the milk is not safe to drink by Public Health Standards.
