Increased numbers of CAG repeats in the exon of a gene is associated with certain diseases. In a specific gene, the existing CAG codons are in the 'zero' reading frame, in- frame with the AUG initiation codon. The effect of increased numbers of CAG repeats on the encoded protein is:___________. a. to silence of the gene to generate a truncated protein b. to generate a protein with a run of consecutive glutamines c. to generate a frameshifted protein product d. none of the above

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - option b. to generate a protein with a run of consecutive glutamines.

Explanation:

The initiation code AUG is the code for methionine and as well as the initiation code for the particular protein or peptide chain. In this protein, there is a repeat of CAG is increased with the initiation code so, even though they are in zero reading frame they code for their amino acid which is glutamine.

So. an increased number of CAG repeats will result in a protein with the a run of consecutive glutamines.

All living and non-living things are made of one or more unique substances called elements, the smallest unit of which is the atom, (for example, the element oxygen (O) is made of O atoms, carbon (C) is made of C atoms and hydrogen (H) is made of H atoms. Atoms combine to form molecules. Molecules can be small (for example, O2, oxygen gas, which has 2 atoms of the element O; CO2, carbon dioxide, which has 1 atom of C and 2 of O), medium (for example, C6H12O6, glucose, which has 6 atoms of C, 12 of H, and 6 of O); or large (for example molecules called proteins are made of hundreds of atoms of C, H, and O with other elements such as nitrogen (N). Molecules are the building blocks to all structures in the human body.

Explain how Karen’s science project demonstrates capillary action in the following scenario.
For her science project, Karen brought two clear glasses of water. She put a large, clear straw in one glass. Karen tried to suck up the water in the glass without the straw by hovering over the water and creating suction with her lips, but she did not touch her lips to the water. The water did not suction into her mouth. In the other glass, Karen sucked through the straw, and her audience could see the water was transported from the glass to her lips.

Answers

Answer:

Capillary action explained in the following scenario above, because if you picture the roots as the cup, the water as the water, the straw as the channels, and Karen as the plant. As Karen sucked through the straw, it was as the plant was sucking up the water through the channel from the roots. The water transported from the glass to her lips it was an example of the roots holding the water and transporting it to the plants by the channel.

Species in which dark brown fur (D) is dominant relative to light brown fur (d). Using the Punnett square below, predict the frequencies of the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring from dark brown parents two who are heterozygous (Dd genotypes).

Answers

Answer:

Genotype frequencies

25% DD

50% Dd

25% dd

or

1 DD: 2 Dd: 1 dd

Phenotype frequencies

75% Dark brown, 25% light brown

or 3 dark brown: 1 light brown

Explanation:

Two heterozygous parents have the genotypes Dd. Therefore, the cross is Dd x Dd.

           D                   d

D        DD                 Dd

d        Dd                  dd

25% (1:4) of the organisms have the genotype DD, and therefore the phenotype is dark brown,  since it has two copies of the dark brown fur allele (DD)

50% (1:2) of the organisms have the genotype Dd, and therefore, the phenotype is dark brown since dark brown fur (D) is dominant to light brown  fur (d).

25% (1:4) of the organisms have the genotype dd, and therefore the phenotype is light brown, since it has two copies of the light brown fur allele (DD)

Which of the following statements best describes the role of adenylyl cyclase in
the epinephrine signaling pathway?
A.It converts a polymer to its monomer subunits.
B.It moves substances across the plasma membrane.
ect!
C.It accelerates the production of a second messenger.
D.It transfers phosphate groups from to protein substrates.

Answers

Answer:

C.It accelerates the production of a second messenger.

Explanation:

Adenylyl cyclase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), a second messenger that activates the protein kinase A (PK-A) protein by dissociation of its regulatory subunit from the catalytic subunit. The first step of the epinephrine signaling pathway consists of the hormone binding to the epinephrine receptor localized on the cell surface. This binding activates a G protein inside the cell, which in turn activates the adenylyl cyclase enzyme. Subsequently, adenylyl cyclase converts ATP molecules into cAMP molecules. Since cAMP transports the message of the epinephrine hormone within the cell this molecule (cAMP) is considered to be a second messenger. Finally, cAMP activates the PK-A enzyme which phosphorylates different proteins and thus triggers different biological processes.

What do you mean by amino acids?

Amino acids are organic compounds that contain both amino and carboxylic acid functional groups. Although hundreds of amino acids exist in nature, by far the most important are the alpha-amino acids, which comprise proteins. Only 22 alpha amino acids appear in the genetic code.

Moreover, amino acids are molecules that combine to form proteins. Amino acids and proteins are the building blocks of life. When proteins are digested or broken down, amino acids are left. The human body uses amino acids to make proteins to help the body: Break down food.

Therefore, these 12 amino acids are isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, valine, cysteine, tyrosine, histidine and arginine.

Which two layers are part of the thermosphere?

Answers

Answer:

The exosphere and the ionosphere

According to the research, exosphere and ionosphere are two layers that are part of the thermosphere.

What is the thermosphere?

It is one of the layers that make up the Earth's atmosphere characterized by X-rays, gamma and ultraviolet rays that cause sodium molecules and atoms to ionize, increasing the temperature.

Due to this peculiarity, the thermosphere includes the ionosphere, where ionization processes take place and the exosphere is the layer with the lowest density.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the research, exosphere and ionosphere are two layers that are part of the thermosphere.

3. Three redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels inside a greenhouse for 12 weeks.

One tree is left outside in normal conditions. The heights of the trees are measured once a

week.

IV humidity levels

DV height

CG tree left outside

Answers

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following:

Independent variable: Different humidity levels

Dependent variable: Height of the plant

Control group: Tree left outside in normal conditions

Controlled variable: same time of measurements (once in a week), same types of trees

Explanation:

Independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in an experiment. In this experiment, three redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels. Hence, the independent variable is the DIFFERENT HUMIDITY LEVELS the redwood trees were kept at.

Dependent variable is the variable that is measured in an experiment. It is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. In this case, the HEIGHTS of the trees measured is the dependent variable.

Controlled variable or constants are those variables that must be kept unchanged throughout the experiment for all groups. In this experiment, the constants are: same time of measurements (once in a week), same types of trees (redwood).

Control group is the the group in an experiment that does not receive experimental treatment. In this case, the group that does not receive treatment/control group is: Tree left outside in normal conditions.
