mutated protein:methionine-glycine-histidine-leucine-Tyrosine-Serine-Isoleucine-Serine-stop

In the mutated protein valine is replaced with leucine. Those two amino acids have different radicals that perform different functions so the protein will have an altered function.

Explanation:

Gymnosperm

Nonflowering and exposed seed

Gymnosperms are the group of plants that do not possess or produce the egg in the enclosed seed which makes there seed naked or exposed

Pine or fir trees

Fir and pine are trees, and more specifically conifers, which belong to the family Pinaceae. of the gymnosperm

Angiosperms

Garden flowers and tomatoes

Tomato plants and garden flowers are the plants that belong to flowering plants or angiosperms.

Seeds enclosed in fruit

In angiosperms, there is a closed ovary that enclosed the egg to protect it. After fertilization ovary turns into a fruit.

Flowering

Angiosperms are the plants that also known as the flowering plant that means these plants are able to produce flowers that are sexual organs of the plant and help in reproduction.

(PLEASE HURRY)Strong winds blow sand to a new location, and some of the sand forms a sand dune. The first plant species to live in the new habitat of the sand dune is a type of grass. This grass stabilizes the sand dune. Over time, the sand dune grows larger and soil forms on the surface. As these changes occur, different plant species become dominant.

Why doesn't the original grass remain the dominant plant on the sand dune?
A.
The grass cannot reproduce fast enough to cover all of the growing dune.
B.
New plants are better suited to the new conditions in the sand dune habitat.
C.
The grass moves to new sand dunes to start the succession process again.
D.
New animals come to the new sand dune habitat and eat the grass.

Answers

(4pts) Drugs, medicines, and poisons often work by acting on endogenous proteins. They do this by looking similar to a signal molecule and binding to the endogenous protein. Look up these four examples to fill in this chart. Drug, medicine, or poison Looks similar to this endogenous molecule: Binds to this endogenous protein/receptor: Muscarine Acetylcholine muscarinic receptors Prozac Serotonin serotonin transporter protein Ketamine NMDA NMDA receptor Tamoxifen estrogen estrogen receptor

Answers

Answer:

Drug, medicine, or poison: Muscarine; Looks similar to this endogenous molecule: Acetylcholine; Binds to this endogenous protein/receptor: muscarinic receptors

Drug, medicine, or poison: Tamoxifen; Looks similar to this endogenous molecule: estrogen; Binds to this endogenous protein/receptor: estrogen receptor

Drug, medicine, or poison: Prozac; Looks similar to this endogenous molecule: Serotonin; Binds to this endogenous protein/receptor: serotonin transporter protein

Drug, medicine, or poison: Ketamine; Looks similar to this endogenous molecule: NMDA; Binds to this endogenous protein/receptor: NMDA receptor

Explanation:

Muscarine is a poisonous natural product found in certain mushrooms. It is similar to acetylcholine and competes with acetylcholine at its receptor binding sites.Signs of muscarine poisoning include salivation, lacrimation, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, bradycardia, etc.

Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor modulator. It is similar to estrogen and acts by inhibiting the effects of estrogen in the breast tissue. It is used to prevent and treat breast cancer in men and women.

Prozac is an antidepressant which belongs to th class known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. It looks similar to serotonin and inhibits its action by competing with serotonin for its binding site. It is used for the treatment of depression disorders.

Ketamine is an NMDA (N-Methyl-D-aspartate) receptor antagonist. NMDA receptor antagonists are a class of drugs that work by inhibiting the action of the NMDA receptor. They are commonly used as anesthetics for animals and humans to induce a state of anesthesia known as dissociative anesthesia.

What is the manipulated variable in this experiment?
O A. The distance the snails moved
OB. The size of the petri dishes
C. The temperature of the water
D. The number of snails observed HELP ME

Answers

The correct answer is C. The temperature of the water

Explanation:

In an experiment such as the one described about the speed of snails in water, the manipulated variable is the factor or element that is manipulated on purpose. This means the researcher or researchers slightly change this element to compare how this affects another variable. In this context, the manipulated variable is the temperature of the water because researchers used three different temperatures (cool, room-temperature, and warm), and therefore they manipulated or changed this factor. Moreover, it is expected temperature affects the distance nails move, which is the main variable.

PLEASE HURRY,(GIVING BRAINLIEST) (THE ACTUAL SUBJECT IS SCIENCE)After a major forest fire kills all of the plants in an area, the first plants to grow in the burned area are often types of grass. Because they are the first thing to grow in the new ecosystem, these types of grass are called pioneer species. What adaptations would help the grass be a successful pioneer species?

A.

slow reproduction and the ability to grow in sunny places

B.

rapid reproduction and the ability to grow in sunny places

C.

slow reproduction and the ability to grow in shady places

D.

rapid reproduction and the ability to grow in shady places

Answers

Answer: B

Explanation:

To help the pioneer species to grow, it needs to have rapid reproduction. But, it also needs the sun to grow very well. If it does not have the Sun, it will most certainly die and be endangered in the area. The answer is B, we need both rapid reproduction and the Sun.

Answer:

rapid reproduction and the ability to grow in sunny places

Explanation:

After a major fire, less sunlight is blocked by trees and other plants. Plants that can use the increased sunlight are more likely to thrive in the new environment. Rapid reproduction would help a plant species to spread more quickly to take advantage of the resources and lack of competition. Therefore, the adaptations that would help grass be a successful pioneer species are rapid reproduction and the ability to grow in sunny places.
