Answer:
The correct option is D. A reasonable explanation for the change in levels of protein is that the mutation occurs in the promoter of the gene, within several hundred base pairs of the start of transcription.
Explanation:
In genetics, a promoter can be described as a region where the RNA polymerase binds initially and starts transcription. The promoter is usually present near to the gene that has to be transcribed. The rate of transcription is controlled by the promoter region too. Hence, the correct option is D. The promoter region for the eye colour was changed due to mutation.
Other options are false because a change in a codon or base pair would have changed proteins being formed and would not have slowed the process.
Answer:
C. 0.120
Explanation:
Assortative mating by phenotype means that individuals with similar phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than would be expected under a random mating pattern. Assortative mating can increase genetic relatedness within a population.
The answer is C. 0.120 because in assortative mating, the allele frequency does not change as it is non-random mating and mates are chosen based on their phenotypes.
Answer: B) The membrane is permeable to the solvent and dialysate, but not to the protein.
Explanation:
A. Hormones act as signal molecules between all body systems
Peripheral Chemoreceptors (Carotid + Aortic Bodies) and Central Chemoreceptors in the Medulla Oblongata detect high Carbon Dioxide levels in the blood during exercise. The respiratory centre in the Medulla Oblongata + PONS stimulate the intercostal muscles and the diphragm to contract in order to increase the rate and depth of breathing as to decrease levels of Carbon dioxide in the blood.
The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine which speeds up metabolism (the rate at which cells use glucose)
<span>Catfish and carp require less oxygen than trout. The mouth of a river usually has less oxygen and the area closer to the source has more oxygen, so since catfish and trout require more oxygen they typically are found at the source.</span>
