Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Which of the following claims about the TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 mammalian genes is most likely to be accurate?
Illusion [34]

The TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 genes are located next to each other on a single chromosome and are organized into an operon is most likely to be accurate.

The option a is correct.

Explanation:

The genes for the Tyrosinase, TRP2 and TRP1 are located on the same chromosome and are operons. These are operons because they are controlled by same transcription factors on mRNA.

Tyrosinase enzyme is important for the synthesis of melanin, eye pigments and hair colour. The synthesis of all these is completed in three distinct reactions  catalysed by TRP1, TRP2 and Tyr genes. These work as operon and the protein product is almost 40% similar of the three genes.

The amount of melanin production depends on tyrosinase enzyme activity of all the three genes.

The genetic regulation is done by operons.

To make new cells, humans undergo a process of cell division called mitosis. Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis),
sashaice [31]

Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis), it must grow and make a copy of its DNA which is termed as an Inter-phase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Some tasks must be carried out by the cells before they undergo division: The cell must grow, it must copy the genetic material (DNA) present in it, and  divide into two daughter cells. These steps carried out by cells are termed as  cell cycle.

Cells that contains a nucleus or Eukaryota cells, there are two major phases called interphase and the mitotic (M) phase. that comprises the cell cycle.

In  inter-phase, growth of the cell and making a copy of its DNA is carried out.

In mitotic (M) phase, the cell separation of the DNA in the cell into two sets and division of its cytoplasm takes place resulting in the formation of two new cells.
