You are studying a biochemical pathway in the mold Neurospora where enzyme 1 converts the initial substrate into intermediate substrate A; enzyme 2 converts intermediate substrate A into intermediate substrate B; enzyme 3 converts intermediate substrate B into intermediate substrate C; and enzyme 4 converts intermediate substrate C into the end product, an amino acid that is essential for growth. You isolate a mutant that is unable to grow on minimal media. Which data would provide the strongest support for the hypothesis that this mutation occurred in the gene that codes for enzyme 2
Answers
Complete question:
You are studying a biochemical pathway in the mold Neurospora where enzyme 1 converts the initial substrate into intermediate substrate A; enzyme 2 converts intermediate substrate A into intermediate substrate B; enzyme 3 converts intermediate substrate B into intermediate substrate C; and enzyme 4 converts intermediate substrate C into the end product, an amino acid that is essential for growth. You isolate a mutant that is unable to grow on minimal media. Which data would provide the strongest support for the hypothesis that this mutation occurred in the gene that codes for enzyme 2?
a. The mold can grow on rich medium plus intermediate substrate C, but not on rich medium plus intermediate substrate B.
b. The mold can grow on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate B, but not on minimal medium plus the initial substrate.
c. The mold can grow on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate B, but not on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate A.
d. The mold can grow on rich medium plus intermediate substrate D, but not on rich medium plus intermediate substrate C.
e. The mold can grow on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate A, but not on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate C.
Answer:
c. The mold can grow on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate B, but not on minimal medium plus intermediate substrate A.
Explanation:
Let us first diagram the pathway for a better understanding.
The normal organism produces four enzymes that convert substrates in the medium that allow it to survive, grow, and reproduce.
initial substrate ------------> A ----------------> B ----------------> C ----------------> AA
Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 Enzyme 4
Any mutation on the Neurospora´s enzymes will not let the organism grow on the minimal medium because it will not be able to convert the minimal substrate into the following one, because the mutated enzyme will not accomplish its original function.
So if the mutation occurs in enzyme 1, the organism will not be able to convert the initial substrate into intermediate substrate A. And the rest of the reaction will not be possible either because of the lack of substance A.initial substrate -----X----> A -------X-----> B ------X--------> C ------X-------> AA
mutated Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 Enzyme 4
If the mutation occurs in enzyme 2, the organism will not be able to convert the intermediate substrate A into intermediate substrate B. And the rest of the reaction will not be possible either because of the lack of substance B.
initial substrate ------------> A -------X--------> B -------X------> C --------X-----> AA
Enzyme 1 mutated Enz. 2 Enzyme 3 Enzyme 4
If the mutation occurs in enzyme 3, the organism will not be able to convert the intermediate substrate B into intermediate substrate C. And the last reaction will not be possible either because of the lack of substance C.
initial substrate ------------> A ----------------> B -------X--------> C -------X------> AA
Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 mutated Enz. 3 Enzyme 4
And if the mutation occurs in enzyme 4, the organism will not be able to convert the intermediate substrate C into the essential amino acid.
initial substrate ------------> A ----------------> B ----------------> C -------X-------> AA
Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 Mutated Enz. 4
But, if we artificially add to the medium the substrate that should be produced by the original enzyme (and that is not converted because of the mutation), then the organism will grow and survive because the other enzymes will be able to produce the essential amino acid.
So, if enzyme 2 is the only enzyme mutated, the organism will not be able to live in a medium with substrate A because the mutated enzyme will not convert the substrate A into B. There will not be B substrate in the medium, and the other enzymes will not produce the essential amino acid. So if the mutation occurs in enzyme 2, substrate A is useless to the organism because it will not survive.
But if we add the intermediate substrate B to the medium, the organism will survive. In a medium with substrate B, all the other reactions will be possible, and the organism will get the essential amino acid. The artificial addition of B substrate will replace the function of the original enzyme 2 -which is the one that converts A into B-.

In the carbon cycle, several processes contribute to the movement of carbon through the ecosystem. For each of the types of movement below, name the process in the carbon cycle that accomplishes it: A. Movement of carbon from the atmosphere into living organisms: ___________________ B. Movement of carbon from living organisms into the atmosphere: ___________________ C. Movement of carbon between different organisms due to feeding: ____________________
Answers
Answer:
A. Movement of carbon from the atmosphere into living organisms: PHOTOSYNTHESIS
B. Movement of carbon from living organisms into the atmosphere: RESPIRATION.
C. Movement of carbon between different organisms due to feeding: DECOMPOSITION
Explanation:
Carbon is the main element in the compounds that make up living organisms. It is found in the remains of living organisms, fossil fuels, inorganic salts, water bodies and air. It is continuously being removed from and added to the carbondioxide in the atmosphere.
The CARBON CYCLE is defined as the process which brings about the circulation of carbon compounds in nature. These processes include:
--> PHOTOSYNTHESIS: Green plants (producers) are continuously removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis. The carbon of the carbon dioxide is incorporated into sugars and other complex organic compounds in plants' tissues. When the plants are eaten by animals (primary consumers), the plant material is digested, absorbed and built up into compounds which form animal tissues. Thus, this accomplishes movement of carbon between different organisms due to feeding.
--> RESPIRATION: Plants and animals respire all the time to obtain energy. During this process, sugar are broken down to liberate carbondioxide and water as wastes. Thus this accomplishes the movement of carbon from living organisms back into the atmosphere.
--> DECOMPOSITION: This is a process in carbon cycle where decomposers feed on the dead and decaying organisms and their excreta and bring about their decomposition. They have enzymes that break down organic compounds into simple inorganic compounds. Although inorganic compounds (carbondioxide) are released during decay, decomposers absorb these compounds for their own use. When decomposers doe, othe decomposers feed on them thereby accomplishing the movement of carbon between different organisms due to feeding.

When the heart is in fibrillation, A) there is no contraction of the myocardium. B) effective pumping of the ventricles ceases because the myocardial cells fail to work as a team, and the brain cannot get adequate oxygen. C) the myocardial cells may become damaged from contracting too fast. D) the myocardial cells deplete their oxygen supply because they are contracting too fast, and the lactic acid produced damages the myocardial cells. E) the myocardial cells are contracting together as they should; fibrillation indicates a normal sinus rhythm of 75 beats per minute.
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is - B) effective pumping of the ventricles ceases because the myocardial cells fail to work as a team, and the brain cannot get adequate oxygen.
Explanation:
When the heart is in an irregular and rapid heart rate due to chaotic electrical signals in the atrial chambers of the heart which leads to a very fast heart rhythm that shows 100 to 175 heart rate. That leads to failure of the myocardial cells that stop the pumping of the ventricles effectively and therefore blood would not reach the brain and the brain would not get an adequate amount of oxygen. This will result in organisms experiencing faint, blackout or stroke-like complications.

A variegated leaf with green and yellow patches is used for an experiment to prove that chlorophyll is required for photosynthesis. Before the experiment the green portions (A), and the yellow portions (B), arte observed. What will be the colour of „A‟ just before and after the starch test? Also write the equation of photosynthesis and mark, well ash molecule the by-product is obtained.
Answers
Answer: The colour of A before the starch test is GREEN while after the starch test is BLUE- BLACK. The equation for photosynthesis is
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
Explanation:
PHOTOSYNTHESIS is the process by which green plants use energy from sunlight to manufacture their own food. It is a building up process since simple inorganic compounds such as carbondioxide and water are built up into large organic compounds such as glucose and OXYGEN is given off as a by product.
Oxygen given out in photosynthesis occurs in the light stage during the process of photolysis of water. This occurs when the chlorophyll traps, absorbs and captures light energy and become energised. The energised chlorophyll supplies energy which is to split molecules of water into hydrogen ion ( H+) and hydroxyl ion ( OH-). The hydroxyl ion is reconverted to water and oxygen is given out as a by product.
To show that chlorophyll is NECESSARY for photosynthesis, a variegated leaf with green and yellow patches is used for an experiment.
The green portion is marked A and the yellow portion marked B. The leaf is tested for starch using the procedure below:
--> place leaf in boiling water for half a minute to kill it.
--> decolorize leaf by placing it in hot alcohol.
--> dip decolorize leaf in hot water to soften it.
--> place leaf on tile and add iodine solution to it.
RESULT: It would be found that only the green parts contain starch as blue+black colouration is observed while yellow area is unaffected by iodine.

Which of the following is correct about mutations and genetic variation?
It must be present in a population before natural selection can act upon the population.
It arises in response to changes in the environment.
It tends to be reduced when diploid organisms produce gametes and reproduce.
It is created by the direct action of natural selection.
Answers
Answer:
a. It must be present in a population before natural selection can act upon the population.
Explanation:
Genetic variation is the difference in the DNA sequences in individuals, which makes a member of a species different from another member of the same species. It can also be said to be the differences in the genetic make up of individuals of a species population.
Genetic variation must be present in a species population before evolutionary mechanisms, such as evolution, can occur. Genetic variation must be present in a population of a species before natural selection can act upon the population, as natural selection can only increase or reduce the frequency of alleles present in the species population already.
Genetic variation in a population of species is important for natural selection to occur.
The true statement is that; "genetic mutation must exist before natural selection can act on it."
What is natural selection?The term natural selection refers to the fact that traits that are more favorable to enable an organism to survive and reproduce tend to persist in the population.
These traits usually occur due to genetic mutations. In a population, genetic mutation must exist before natural selection can act on it.

In the early 1900s, three species of goatsbeard wildflowers, T. dubius, T pratensis, and T. porrifolius, were introduced to the United States. Each of the species had a chromosome number of 2N. In the 1930’s, a few populations of offspring from the original wildflowers were identified as having a chromosome number 4N. What does this data suggest about speciation.
A. Speciation has occurred because the original species of wildflowers produced populations of viable offspring.
B. Speciation has occurred because breeding between the offspring and original populations would not be possible.
C. Speciation has not occurred because the offspring of the original wildflowers were not introduced into a new area.
D. Speciation has not occurred because the offspring inherited identical genetic information to the original wildflowers.
Answers
Answer:
B. Speciation has occurred because breeding between the offspring and original populations would not be possible.
Explanation:
Speciation has occurred in the species due to no breeding between the offspring and original populations because the offspring and original species has different number of chromosomes in their DNA. Due to this difference in the chromosome number in the DNA, there is no chance of breeding between offspring and original species. Speciation is the evolutionary process by which populations of organism evolve with the passage of time and become different from the original species.
