Answer:
Since the gene mutates at a rate of 0.76 base pairs every 17.1 million years, to find out the time it would take for 1 base pair to mutate can be calculated by dividing 17.1 million years by 0.76
17,100,000 ÷ 0.76 = 22.5 million years
The following equation can be used to describe this:
μ = [(r2/N2) − (r1/N1)] × ln (N2/N1) = (f1 − f2) × ln (N2/N1)
r1 = the observed number of mutants at time point 1
r2 = the observed number of mutants at the next time point
N1 and N2 are the numbers of cells at time points 1 and 2
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
Answer:
This mutation will produce a conformational change capable of maintaining the receptor continuously in its activated mode
Explanation:
G proteins are inactive when guanosine diphosphate (GDP) is bound, while they are active when guanosine triphosphate (GTP) is bound

and sulci are the folds and grooves,
respectively, which characterize the surface of the human brain.</span> Gyri
are part of the brain that shows a larger surface of the brain. When the gyri
change in structure or form it shows that a body is encountering sickness and
disorders. Sulci is one of the part of the cerebral cortex that surrounds the
gyri.
Answer:
B. similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
Explanation:
According to this question, an experiment was set up in which kidney cells were treated with a chemical for different amounts of time. Hence, the independent/manipulable variable is the CHEMICAL.
Based on the observation of the group of cells, a cell that has been damaged by the chemical will appear pink when treated with dye while a cell treated with only due but no chemical will not appear pink.
A NEGATIVE CONTROL is the group in an experiment that is not treated with the independent variable i.e. doesn't receive experimental treatment. Since the independent variable in this experiment is the CHEMICAL, the negative control will be the group that doesn't receive the chemical treatment. Hence, the negative control is similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
Answer:
The carrying capacity of a wildlife reserve is 570 individuals for a particular species of rodents. If the area of the reserve is extended, the carrying capacity is likely to Increase
During the summer, a fatal disease began killing individuals. The carrying
capacity of the reserve will therefore decrease
Explanation:
The carrying capacity of a habitat is the maximum number of individuals of a given species it can support without depleting the available resources. When the area of the reserve is extended, the carrying capacity increases because the available resources will also increase. A fatal disease would increase the carrying capacity since the number of wildlife would decrease.
