The mitochondrion, like the nucleus, has two or more membrane layers. How is the innermost of these layers different from that o
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.

To visualize the structure of DNA, which has a width of 10 nm, which microscope would be best
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Electron microscope

Explanation:

Instead of using light, it utilized a beam of electron for illumination. Because an electron beam has a shorter wavelength than light (up to 100, 000 times shorter), they have a higher resolution power and are therefore able to view sub-cellular structures including DNA.

One of the first Mendelian traits identified in humans was a dominant condition known as brachydactyly. This gene causes an abno
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct option is C. Rare alleles tend to remain rare even when they are dominant.The distribution of a gene among individuals is determined by mating and environmental factors.

Explanation:

Most people believe that a rare allele would only be recessive. But this is not correct. A rare allele can be dominant. The frequency of an allele to occur in a population will depend on the environmental factors. The alleles which code for traits that are best suitable for living in an environment will be seen in more abundance. The frequency of an allele to occur in a population also depends on the breeding trends of the population.

mihalych1998 [28]
<span>John could make some simple changes to his breakfast to increase his fiber intake. Instead of orange juice, he could drink juice with added fiber such as V8 juice or fiber added grape juice. Instead of corn flakes, he could eat a high fiber cereal such as Grape Nuts. Instead of white toast, he could eat a slice of high fiber whole wheat bread. He can make some simple substitutions that will really impact his diet and his health.</span>
