Answer:

Proximal tubule

Explanation:

Calcium is an important element in the body with majority of its percentage located in the bones. Its ions perform different functions in the body which includes muscle contraction, hormones secretion and including all other functions.

Calcium ion is absorbed in the intestines and then reabsorbed in the kidney. Much percentage of calcium ions is reabsorbed by passive mechanisms in the proximal convoluted tubule of the kidney tubule as compared to all other parts of the kidney tubule.

Biological augmentation is a process that _________. answer correct uses organisms to detoxify polluted ecosystems use organisms
nikdorinn [45]
Biological augmentation is a process that uses organisms to add essential materials to a degraded ecosystem. It involves the addition of archaea, or bacteria cultures required to speed up the rate of degradation of a contaminant, this is supplementation application of non-toxic, natural, beneficial microbes, enzymes and minerals to enhance the rate of degradation.

Which of the following claims about the TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 mammalian genes is most likely to be accurate?
Illusion [34]

The TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 genes are located next to each other on a single chromosome and are organized into an operon is most likely to be accurate.

The option a is correct.

Explanation:

The genes for the Tyrosinase, TRP2 and TRP1 are located on the same chromosome and are operons. These are operons because they are controlled by same transcription factors on mRNA.

Tyrosinase enzyme is important for the synthesis of melanin, eye pigments and hair colour. The synthesis of all these is completed in three distinct reactions  catalysed by TRP1, TRP2 and Tyr genes. These work as operon and the protein product is almost 40% similar of the three genes.

The amount of melanin production depends on tyrosinase enzyme activity of all the three genes.

The genetic regulation is done by operons.

The heritability for human traits, such as nearsightedness, _____.
monitta
Heritability is a measure that is used to estimate the variation of phenotypic traits (observable traits) in a given population due to the variation or changes in the genetic make up (genotype) among certain individuals. some of these traits includes color blindness, tongue rolling and curly hair among others. However, some traits such as nearsightedness are caused or influenced by the changes in the environment and therefore Heritability is not a factor to consider when dealing with such traits.
