Substitutions between leucine and isoleucine are much more common in proteins than substitutions between leucine and serine. How would you explain this observation? Consider all possibilities and suggest how you would distinguish among them.
Why would it make sense (in an evolutionary sense) that Substitutions between leucine and isoleucine are much more common in proteins than substitutions between leucine and serine?

D 26. Why do we expect to see more synonymous substitutions than non-synonymous substitutions if a locus is under purifying selection? In your answer, be sure to explain what synonymous vs. non-synonymous substitutions and purifying selection are. Enter answer... D27 In some birds such as phalaropes, males provide all of the parental care to offspring, and females compete with one another for access to males and breeding territory. In this species, would you expect males or females to be larger...

New-model commercial airplanes are much more fuel-efficient than older models. How is it possible for airlines flying older models to make money when their competitors are flying newer planes? When answering this question, consider capital budgeting. If the old planes still make money, does it make sense to buy new planes, given how long it would take to make the money back from the purchase of new planes? Explain thoroughly.
1. Do you think the fact that most American CEOs are paid so much more than rank-and-file employees suggest CEOs are overpaid? Explain. 2. Japanese CEOs generally receive much lower levels of compensation than CEOs in the United States. Does this imply that U.S. CEOs are overpaid? 3. Is it obvious that $10 per thousand is too low of an incentive to pay for CEOs? Explain. 4. Does the observation that the stock price increases when the firms increase incentive...

1) Brief answers a) Explain why FeS is much less solute in water than Fe(OH)2 and Fe(OH)2 is much more soluble than Fe(OH)3 b)will Cr3+react more strongly with Cl-or PR3. Why? 2) Brief answers a) Would you expect lead (Pb2+ soft to be found oxide in nature? b) Explain the following observation interns pf the HSAB theory: OH- + CH3HgS --> CH3HgOH +S2- Equilibrium displaced to the left.
1.) Why are fungal diseases much more common now in the United States than they were at the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence? 2.) Very few fossils of bryophytes have been found, suggest reasons for this.
Smoking remains more common in much of Europe than in the United States. In the United States, there is a strong relationship between education and smoking: well-educated people are less likely to smoke. Does a similar relationship hold in France? Here is a two-way table of the level of education and smoking status (nonsmoker, former smoker, moderate smoker, heavy smoker) of a sample of 461 French men aged 20 to 60 years. The subjects are a random sample of men...

You’re studying proteins and the effect of pH on those proteins. For that purpose you are going to make two buffers. First, how would you prepare a 2L of a 10 mM Phosphate buffer at pH of 7.4? You have – Solid KH2PO4 Solid K2HPO4 10M KOH (as much as you need) purified water pH meter balance, glassware and anything else you need. The three pKa values for phosphoric acid (from the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics) are 2.16,...
