Suppose a geneticist mutates the gene for the poly(a) tail-binding protein (pabp) in an eukaryotic cell line. the resulting mutant protein cannot bind to poly(a) tails. what is the effect of the pabp mutation in the cultured cells? a-transcription will not occur in the cultured cells, because pabp is an essential transcription factor. b-translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mrnas will be degraded at a greater rate than normal. c-transcription will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting transcript will be longer than normal. d-translation will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting polypeptide will be longer than normal. e-replication will not occur in the cultured cells, because pabp determines the location of the origin of replication.

Elements and compounds are pure substances that cannot be broken down physically into a simpler substance. a physical change doesn’t break the bonds between atoms of a substance or form new ones. compounds can be broken down by a chemical change. a chemical change breaks chemical bonds and/or forms new ones between atoms of a substance. what simple substance would a compound break into? the basic elements that make it up! for example, if you passed a very strong electric current through water you’d break the chemical bonds in water and be left with oxygen and hydrogen. which of the following is an example of a chemical change? a separating water into different glasses b breaking frozen ice cubes with a hammer c running an electric current through water d boiling water to evaporate it on a stove

African penguins, which inhabit the coasts of southern africa, were classified as an endangered species in 2010. two significant threats to their survival are ecosystem damage from oil spills and overfishing by humans. overfishing depletes the food supply of african penguins. the best method to reduce the threat of overfishing would be to . the risk of oil spills could be reduced by increasing the use of , which should oil consumption. if an oil spill does occur, could be used to remove the oil so the ecosystem may more quickly recover.
