Answer: The probability of having an offspring that is dwarf in size is zero.

Explanation: Since tall phenotype is dominant to dwarf phenotype, let T represent allele for tall and t represent allele for dwarf. A heterozygous pea plant will have Tt genotype while a homozygous tall pea plant will have a TT genotype. A cross between them will produce two homozygous tall pea plants (TT) and two heterozygous tall pea plant (Tt). They will not have any offspring having a dwarf size. Therefore, the probability of having a dwarf offspring is zero.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Mitochondria stops working.

Explanation:

When the mitochondria of fish exposed to Rotenone, it inhibits the cellular respiration which is the main cause of death of fishes. This inhibiting of cellular respiration in mitochondria leads to reduction in cellular uptake of oxygen and this reduction is responsible for the death of fishes. This Rotenone releases by the plants present in the water as well as used as pesticides for killing of fishes.

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.  

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.  

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.
