Answer;

- 1.2 nM

Explanation;

-Smallest Km means highest affinity, can bind substrate better at lower concentrations. The relationship between rate of reaction and concentration of substrate depends on the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate. This is usually expressed as the Km (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity

-Km is therefore, the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax. An enzyme with a high Km has a low affinity for its substrate, and requires a greater concentration of substrate to achieve Vmax.

If speciation occurred solely because of changes in chromosome counts between the original parents (who were 2n) and the offspri
Ket [755]

Answer:

Yes...This is an example of speciation by natural selection

Explanation:

As we know that natural selection always promote those evolutionary changes that are necessary. Changes that happen in chromosome number always promote with a specie that is closely related to the parent specie and produce fertile off-springs. These new generations are most adaptable and can survive in the environment more efficiently than the previous ones.

Additionally, other than natural selection, speciation can also happen as a result of random mutations, genetic drift and by means of artificial selection as well. But the natural likelihood of all these is probably low as compared to that of natural selection.

True or false. If Americans decided to eat more chicken and less beef, the future size of the chicken population would increase
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The given first statement is true, that is, with the increase in the demand for chicken, the chicken market will rise, and in the same way with the decline in the demand for beef, the production of cattle will decrease based on the law of demand.  

The given second statement is also true, as the resources mentioned in the given statement is a tragedy of commons as the common access resources are rivalrous and non-excludable.  

The given third statement is also true, as the mentioned ocean fisheries is a tragedy of commons as the common access resources are rivalrous and non-excludable.

Calculate how long it will take for one full base pair mutation to occur. Explain your reasoning with by constructing a mathemat
scoray [572]

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!

What problem would most likely to occur if a haploid cell attempted to perform meiosis? the cell could not replicate its dna pri
Cerrena [4.2K]

The answer is; the cell could not pair homologous chromosomes during meiosis.

For meiosis to occur, the sister chromosomes pairs line up in the metaphase-plate so that each chromosome of the pair is pulled to the opposite pole by the spindle in anaphase. Therefore, meiosis can only occur in cells with normal ploidy so the ploidy halved by meiosis.
