A bacterial gene (gene A) ordinarily makes a protein that binds to DNA. A nonsense mutation of gene A decreases the expression o

f another gene, gene B. We can conclude that
(A) gene A is a positive regulator of gene B.
(B) gene A is a negative regulator of gene B.
(C) gene B is a negative regulator of gene A.
(D) genes A and B regulate one another.
(E) gene B is a positive regulator of gene A.

Answer:

The correct answer is (A) gene A is a positive regulator of gene B.

Explanation:

When positive regulation occurs a transcription factor is required to bind at the promoter in order to enable RNA polymerase to start transcription.

RNA means ribonucleic acid and it is a long single-stranded chain of cells that processes protein.

Sweet yellow tomatoes with a pear shape bring a high price per basket to growers. Pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer and Explanation: The farmer has a pure-breeding line of tomato means the farmer has a tomato with genotype FFrrtt while the other line of tomato has genotype ffRRTT.

The cross between these lines gives a F1 generation of heterozygous full, red and axial or FfRrTt.

With an individual of F1 crosses with another individual of F1, the Punnet Square will be:

FfRrTt x FfRrTt

1) Dividing each characteristics, for simplicity:

          F         f

F       FF       Ff

f        Ff        ff

          R       r

R       RR     Rr

r        Rr      rr

         T      t

T       TT   Tt

t        Tt     tt

Analysing Punnett squares, we notice the line wanted (ffrrTT) will be produced, when an individual of F1 generation cross with another individual with the same generation.

How might an individual's own cells lead to false verdicts of guilt.
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Through a circumstance known as "secondary transfer DNA", or "Touch DNA".

Explanation:

Most times when a crime is committed, DNA samples are obtained from surfaces in the scene where the crime was committed. There is a very huge possibility of picking up the DNA of someone who was never at the scene of the crime and this is a result of a condition known as Touch DNA.

Because we touch several objects which can be moved to different locations and touch people who are also always mobile, our DNA cells can find their ways to a crime scene where we had never physically been to. This can lead to false verdicts of guilt.

Mnenie [13.5K]

The most common way these trees undergo pollination is through seeds and pollen.

The pollination is done with help of wind and birds where pollen transform from one plant to another.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The plants that undergoes pollination process through the seeds that are present in it are called as Angiosperms. These contains fruits. The seeds are usually present inside these fruits. Flowering plants are also called as Angiosperms.

These fruits and flowers are absent in gymnosperm. Even then they contain seeds inside the leaves surface. They will undergo pollination with these naked seeds. It is the fruits, flowers and the endosperm that are present in the seeds that help us to find difference between these two.  The only common thing that exists between these two are seeds and pollen with which they pollinate.

In gymnosperms, pollen is transferred from male cone to female cone through wind or birds. Now, the pollen is germinated into pollen tubes and sperm for egg fertilization.
