Answer:
The correct option is D. 18 year old male
Explanation:
The epiphyseal plate can be described as a disc of cartilage that is required for the growth of bones. The epiphyseal plates get fused in females at a very early age, most probably between the ages of 13 to 15. In males, the epiphyseal plates fuse a litter later at about 15 to 18 years.
Hence, the presence of epiphyseal plates in the femur would prove that it was present in an 18-year-old male.
All the other options would be false because they won't contain an epiphyseal plate.
Answer:
Explanation:
The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle carrying deoxygenated blood from right atrium to right ventricle
The mitral/bicuspid valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle carrying oxygenated blood from left atrium to left ventricle
Pulmonary semilunar valves separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery preventing bachelor of blood.
Aortic semilunar valves separates the left ventricle from the aorta preventing backflow of blood
<h2>
A change in one base of the gene sequence is known as point mutation.</h2>
Explanation:
Question 2 is incomplete.
3. A mutation that only affects a single nucleotide of nucleic acid is known as Point Mutation.
In Point mutations there is substitution of one base for another.
Example: TAT TGG CTA
TAC TGG CTA
The TAT changes to TAC which shows point mutation.
4. Yes. The point mutation have an effect on the outcome compared to the normal sequence.
When there is a change in one base of the gene it results into causing disease such as cancer, sickle cell anemia.
Answer:
a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate
Explanation:
A nucleotide can be defined as an organic molecule which forms the building block of nucleic acid such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Basically, nucleotide comprises of the following parts;
1. Nitrogenous base: this includes adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) which are mainly found in the DNA while adenine (A), guanine (G), uracil (U) and cytosine (C) are found in the RNA.
2. A phosphate group.
3. A penrose sugar: it is either deoxyribose in DNA or ribose in RNA.
The two parts or chemical components of a nucleotide which do not change throughout the structure of DNA are;
I. Five-Carbon Sugar also known as deoxyribose and it has hydrogen on its second carbon.
II. Phosphate: this is the structural backbone that provides support to DNA.
Answer:
gene encoding enzymes for glycolysis.
Explanation:
Plasmid may be defined as an extra chromosomal circular DNA that replicate independently of the main chromosomal material. Plasmid are generally used for the manipulation of genes in molecular technologies.
Plasmid can encode gene for toxins, antibacterial resistance and for the unusual substrate degradation. The plasmid cannot code enzyme for glycolysis because these enzymes are already present in the host organisms. Glycolysis enzymes are independent on the plasmid regulation.
Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
