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.

The united states produces an average of 429 billion pounds of food annually. about 133 billion pounds of that food ends up as waste.the percentage of food that the united states wastes each year is %.

Which of the following would be the best hypothesis for this experiment? a) use of the ginko biloba extract improves clinical outcomes when administered to patients with t2d. b) ginko biloba improves clinical outcomes of diabetes patients when combined with metformin. c) diabetes in patients is worsened when ginko biloba is taken in conjunction with metformin. d)the use of ginko biloba to treat t2d in combination with metformin lowers the cost of t2d treatment. ginko biloba shows benefits against t2d when combined with plant extracts as compared to other treatments.
