RNA interference (RNAI) is a mechanism of gene regulation in eukaryotes. RNAI is initiated by ____, which leads to the ____ of specific genes.
Box 1:
single-stranded RNA
double-stranded RNA
double-stranded DNA
Box 2:
silencing
induction
expression

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

double-stranded RNA;  silencing

Explanation:

The RNAi mechanism is a natural process of gene silencing triggered by different small non-coding RNAs such as, for example, siRNAs, miRNAs and piRNAs. RNAi is a powerful technique to induce gene silencing in a sequence-specific manner. The delivery of exogenous double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) can be used to induce this evolutionarily conserved mechanism.  The dsRNAs first bind to RNAi core components (Ago, Piwi proteins) and then target complementary mRNAs to induce their degradation.

How do the circulatory and respiratory systems deliver important
substances?

Answers

Answer:

Gas exchange between tissues and the blood is an essential function of the circulatory system. In humans, other mammals, and birds, blood absorbs oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs. Thus the circulatory and respiratory system, whose function is to obtain oxygen and discharge carbon dioxide, work in tandem.

In your own words, explain how stalagmites are formed in caves.

Answers

Explanation:

As the redeposited minerals build up after countless water drops, a stalactite is formed. If the water that drops to the floor of the cave still has some dissolved calcite in it, it can deposit more dissolved calcite there, forming a stalagmite. Speleothems form at varying rates as calcite crystals build up.

Human blood consists of blood groups A, B, and O. However, there is one more blood group, AB, which contains alleles A and B in the same genotype. What is this phenomenon called?
A.
coinheritance
B.
codominance
C.
incomplete dominance
D.
polygenic inheritance

Answers

Answer:

B. codominance  

Explanation:

because if the placement of the A and B molecules on each cell is controlled by the proteins that are coded by different versions of the same gene, then IA and IB are codominant but both are dominant to Io. If a person receives an IA allele and a IB allele, their blood type is type AB, in which characteristics of both A and B antigens are expressed.

How is the changing environmental quality posing a challenge to agricultural industries?

Soil polluted with heavy metals causes crops to grow more quickly.
Higher birth rates in livestock are due to land pollution.
Water and land pollution make it more difficult to grow healthy crops and livestock.
Droughts cause more people to move to rural areas.

Answers

Answer:

Agricultural activities that cause NPS pollution include poorly located or managed animal feeding operations; overgrazing; plowing too often or at the wrong time; and improper, excessive, or poorly timed application of pesticides, irrigation water, and fertilizer. Industrial farming practices, such as monocropping and intensive tillage, have also compromised soil health over time. ... Excessive fertilizer use can also cause a buildup of salts in soil, heavy metal contamination and accumulation of nitrate (which is a source of water pollution and also harmful to humans

Explanation:

However agriculture is both cause and victim of water pollution. It is a cause through its discharge of pollutants and sediment to surface and/or groundwater, through net loss of soil by poor agricultural practices, and through salinization and waterlogging of irrigated land.

A male cardinal’s red color is an example of a trait affected by natural selection. The females of the species choose mates based on the vibrant colors of the males’ feathers. If females begin using different criteria than feather color when they choose mates, what would most likely happen to the color of the male cardinals over time?
increased variation in the shades of red because there is no advantage in one specific color
increased variation in the shades of red because the cardinals try different ways to impress the females
decreased variation in the shades of red over time because no form of the trait is advantageous
decreased variation in the shades of red after a single generation

Answers

Answer:

decreased variation in the shades of red over time because no form of the trait is advantageous

Explanation:

If the vibrant red feathers are no longer used to attract mates, then it is no longer useful to the males, so it will cease to exist.

Numerous atp and naphtha are produced during light reaction why

Answers

Answer: cracking of naphtha. It is important to ensure that the feedstock does not crack to form carbon, which is normally formed at this temperature. This is avoided by passing the gaseous feedstock very quickly and at very low pressure through the pipes which run through the furnace Shale naphtha is obtained by the distillation of oil produced from bituminous shale by destructive distillation. Petroleum naphtha is a name used primarily in the United States for petroleum distillate containing principally aliphatic hydrocarbons and boiling higher than gasoline and lower than kerosene.

Explanation: Light naphtha can refer to either a finished product used as a petrochemical feedstock or a distillation cut commonly called light straight run naphtha. It is composed of pentane and slightly heavier material. In a refinery, light naphtha is often blended directly into gasoline.

Scenario 2: Researchers are studying chemotaxis in white blood cells. Chemotaxis is the movement of living cells in response to a particular substance. ___

Scenario 3: Cell biologists are interested in measuring the distance between the inner and outer nuclear membranes, and need an instrument capable of producing images where the tiny distance between these two membranes is clear. __

Answers

Answer: Scenario 1: SEM

Scenario 2: Light

Scenario 3: TEM

Explanation:

The technique applied to observe and analyze objects that cannot be seen with the bared eye is called the microscopic technique.

1. The technique used will be SEM. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to generate an image on the individual surface with the help of electron lasers.

It is useful in apprehending cell surface fabrication and topography.

Therefore, to study the cell surface structure of leukaemia SEM is best.

2. The light microscopy technique can be applied to study chemotaxis.

When there will be a movement in the living cell due to response towards chemical then the light microscope can be used to visualise the cells.

Therefore to study chemotaxis light microscopy should be employed.

3. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) method can be used to know the gap between the inner and outer layers. They are used for observing very thin segments of specimens.

Through the thin fragments, the electron flows easily and the image is produced.

Therefore, TEM should be used by scientists to measure the distances.
