Which of the following sequences best describes the flow of information that takes place when a eukaryotic gene directs the synthesis of a protein?
DNA is first transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which is then translated into an amino acid chain (protein) at the ribosomes.
Experiments by Thomas Hunt Morgan with the eye coloration of fruit flies demonstrated that
Morgan was the first scientist to show that certain genes were linked to the sex of an organism. These sex-linked traits were coded for by genes carried on the X-chromosome and, if recessive (such as fruit fly white eye coloration), were far more commonly expressed in males (because they have only one X chromosome) than in females. However, rare females did have white eyes in his experiments
A lack of which of the following substances would likely lead to dizziness, fatigue, and confusion due to red blood cells being less able to carry oxygen?
Answer(s): E
Iron is the element that is a key part of hemoglobin protein in red blood cells. Iron binds to oxygen in the lungs and allows red blood cells to carry this oxygen to body cells. Without iron, insufficient oxygen reaches cells of the body. Without oxygen, cells cannot produce adequate ATP, and symptoms such as those described can occur.
