Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The protein specific sequence also known as the primary sequence is determined by the sequence of its amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. The sequences of amino acids determine the proteins that will eventually be synthesized. This proteins becomes functional when correct folding pattern/ native conformation of the protein occurs which determines the shape of the proteins. peptide bonds hold the amino acid sequences together, hydrogen bonds involving components of the peptide bonds allow for the existence of the secondary structure either the alpha helix or the beta pleated sheets and then disulphide bonds and other type of bonds helps in the folding of the protein to become a functional protein.

devlian [24]

Answer:

I would expect that the sample has only 50% of the original 235 U.

Explanation:

That is because 235 U has a half-life of 700 million years and I expect that my sample be 350 million years old. 350 is half of 700.

Calculate the rate of photosynthesis (mm/hr) for Elodea if when measuring net photosynthesis, the water level moved up 7mm from
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

With 6 we should multiply gross photosynthesis (as we were measuring gross photosynthesis for 10 min).

Explanation:

According to this question:-

Net photosynthesis- 3mm/20min- 1.5mm/10min

Cellular respiration- 1mm/15min- 0.66mm/10min

Gross photosynthesis = Net photosynthesis + Cellular respiration = 1.5+0.66 = 2.16 (mm/10min)

Rate of photosynthesis = (gross photosynthesis)6 = 2.16 *6 = 12.96 mm/hr

As we gage the photosynthesis rate in hr.

If a homozygous black bull is mated with a homozygous white cow and the calf is gray, this could be an example of ___________. H
givi [52]

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Co-dominance

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs heredity, in which one of them is that an allele called DOMINANT allele, is capable of masking the expression of its variant allele called RECESSIVE allele in a heterozygous state. However, there has been genetic scenarios contrary to this his LAW OF DOMINANCE.

One of those Non-mendelian pattern of inheritance is a phenomenon called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, where an allele does not mask the expression of another completely, instead their combined state produces a third intermediate phenotype that is different from both parents. This is the case of the homozygous black bull mated with a homozygous white cow to produce a grey calf. The grey phenotype is an intermediate phenotype of both the black and white colours that forms due to incomplete dominance.

Another genetic scenario is called CO-DOMINANCE, where one allele is neither dominant nor recessive to the other allele, but instead both phenotypes becomes simultaneously expressed in the heterozygous offspring. In this case, the black bull and white cow were mated to form a heterozygous calf with both black and white spots.

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.
