The TAS2R38 gene encodes a receptor protein that influences the ability to taste bitterness. The gene has two alleles: a dominant, wild-type allele that enables an individual (taster) to taste bitterness and a recessive, mutant allele that interferes with the ability of an individual (nontaster) to taste bitterness. In a sample of 2,400 people, 1,482 were found to have the dominant (taster) phenotype. Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, approximately how many individuals in the sample are expected to be heterozygous for TAS2R38
Answer:
The correct answer is - 1133.
Explanation:
According to H-W equilibrium;
p2 +2pq + q2 = 1 ........... eq.1 and
(p+q)2 = 1 ..............eq.2
Here q = frequency of the recessive allele,
and p = frequency of the dominant allele in the population
The genotype of p2 + 2pq shows the dominant(taster) phenotype.
The genotype of q2 shows the recessive(non-taster) phenotype.
q^2 = (2400 - 1482)/2400
= 0.3825
= 0.618
using eq. 2 we get p= 1-q
=0.382
2pq = No. of heterozygotes/2400
No. of heterozygotes = 1133.1648

Answer:
In most cells, DNA directs the production of a molecule of mRNA which then enters a ribosome. The ribosome produces the final product, a protein. Retroviruses do the opposite. They use the enzyme reverse transcriptase to use a template of mRNA to produce DNA.
Explanation:
The central dogma of molecular biology describes how a cell uses its genetic information to synthesize a protein. The first step called 'transcription' consists of using an RNA polymerase enzyme and a fragment of DNA (i.e., gene) as a template to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually a messenger RNA (mRNA). Subsequently, the genetic code in the mRNA sequence is read by the ribosomes in order to produce a protein, a process known as 'translation'. Retroviruses are viruses that have the ability to integrate into the host genome by using a reverse transcriptase enzyme that allows reverse transcription of mRNA to complementary DNA, which then integrates into the host's genome.
The correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.
What is gene expression?It is the process by which cells produce protein from DNA molecules. DNA produces RNA which contains codes to produce amino acids.
The mRNA enters the ribosome which produced protein using the codons of mRNA.
Retroviruses have special machinery to produce the DNA from mRNA.
Therefore, the correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.

Drag each label to the correct location on the table. Sort the observations based on whether they are quantitative or qualitative.
Answer:
Qualitative observations are those that cannot really be counted or measured by empirical figures, but are rather described by the features they have such as their color or taste.
Quantitative observations can be measured and counted by empirical figures i.e. numbers such as age and temperature. Number operations such as addition can be performed on them as well.

A directional flow of electric charge
Answer:
The direction of an electric current is by convention the direction in which a positive charge would move. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires in the opposite direction.
Conventionally, a positive charge would go in the same direction as an electric current. As a result, the battery's positive terminal receives less current in the external circuit than its negative counterpart. Actually, electrons would go in the reverse direction across the cables.
What is electric current ?A stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, traveling through an electrical conductor or a vacuum is known as an electric current. The net rate of electric charge flowing through a surface or into a control volume is how it is calculated.
The cell phone, trains, ships, refrigerator, and the motors in appliances like food processors all run on electricity. To be useful, electric energy must be converted into other forms of energy like heat, light, or mechanical.
Conventionally, a positive charge would go in the same direction as an electric current. As a result, the battery's positive terminal receives less current in the external circuit than its negative counterpart.
