Answer: DF508 mutation. A Genetic, Hereditary, Autosomal and Recessive Mutation.
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive autosomal lethal disease, it is most common on Caucasoid populations. Its diagnosis is suggested by the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, persistent pulmonary colonization (particularly with mucoid Pseudomonas strains), meconium ileus, pancreatic insufficiency with or familiarity history of the disease. The FC gene is large, with about 250 Kb of genomic DNA, 27 exons representing about 5% of genomic DNA; encodes a 6.5 kb transcribed mRNA. This mRNA is transcribed into a protein of 1480 amino acid called CFTR (Regulator Transmembrane Conductance Cystic Fibrosis). When a three-base pair deletion, adenosine-thymine-thymine (ATT) identified in the CFTR gene, exon 10, it results in the loss of a single amino acid phenylalanine at position 508 of the protein. This mutation is called DF508; “D” stands for deletion and “F” for phenylalanine amino acid.
Trees are valued for the beauty and many other benefits they bring to our landscapes and neighborhoods. Trees are increasingly recognized for their importance in managing runoff. Their leaf canopies help reduce erosion caused by falling rain. They also provide surface area where rain water lands and evaporates. Roots take up water and help create conditions in the soil that promote infiltration.
Answer:
The correct answer is : due to the hydrogen ions reacts and release high amount of energy with the strong acid.
Explanation:
Diluted acids are more corrosive then undiluted due to the presence of more H+ ions than the undiluted acids. The More the H+ ions are added the more corrosive the acid is.
When water is mixed with strong acid the hydrogen ions reacts with acid ions and a exothermic reaction takes place that release high amount of energy which boils violently, to avoid any accident it is advised to lab workers to wipe if any splash self before washing.
Thus, the correct answer is : due to the hydrogen ions reacts and release high amount of energy with the strong acid.
Answer:
Answer is explained below;
Explanation:
Mercury is a liquid metal that is released into the environment by both natural processes such as volcanic activity, weathering of rocks, etc and human activities such as waste materials from factories. The mercury that reaches the ocean and other water sources is converted into methylmercury by bacteria. Methylmercury is a neurotoxin that interferes with the nervous system and is easily absorbed by the human body.
The methylmercury is taken up by planktons. Small fishes consume large quantities of plankton. Tilapia is a small, short-lived freshwater fish. The methylmercury level in tilapia is lower than that of other fish. When large, long-living predatory fishes such as tuna, shark, king mackerel, swordfish, etc consume many smaller fish with low mercury levels, this causes accumulation of methylmercury at extremely high levels in their tissues over time i.e., the amount of mercury in such bigger fish biomagnifies.
So large, long-lived predators like swordfish and shark often have the highest methyl mercury levels than a small, short-lived tilapia.
