Imagine that the membranes in parts a and b make up the wall of the human heart or the wall of a blood vessel. based on what you know about mechanical stress, what do you think high blood pressure over extended periods of time can do to such walls?

How is the male reproductive system different from other body systems? it isn’t necessary to vital signs. it monitors other body systems, and adjusts if necessary. it transports items from one system to another. it is the only system that produces hormones in the male.

Considering the yellow and green pea color phenotypes studied by gregor mendel: a. what is the biochemical function of the protein that is specified by the gene responsible for the pea color phenotype? (1 point) b. a null allele of a gene is an allele that does not specify (or encode) any of the biochemical function that the gene normally provides (in other words, either no protein at all or only non-functional protein is produced from it). of the two alleles, y and y, which is more likely to be a null allele? (1 point) c. in terms of the underlying biochemistry, why is the y allele dominant to the y allele? (2 points) d. why are peas that are yy homozygotes green? (1 point) e. the amount of protein produced from a gene is roughly proportional to the number of functional copies of the gene carried by a cell or individual. what do the phenotypes of yy homozygotes, yy heterozygotes, and yy homozygotes tell us about the amount of sgr enzyme needed to produce a yellow color? explain your reasoning.

Scientists discover two populations of mice on either side of a major river. the two populations have almost identical genes but the mice from one side cannot breed with mice from the other. this is most likely because
