What is known about the C. elegans gene ceh22? What is known about the C. elegans gene skn-1? What is known about the C. elegans gene apx-1?
what is the method of reproduction in C. elegans?
what are some of suggestion you can give to a parent who think that ABA is stressfull and time consuming
Within the C. elegans germline, what would be the expected phenotype of constitutively expressing the intracellular cleavage product of GLP-1 in the germline stem cells? Is this a loss-of- function or gain-of-function phenotype?
A client of yours wants to find out the best microbial environment for C. elegans. In previous meetings, the client told you that C. elegans feed on bacteria but may also be killed by certain bacteria. Therefore, it is important to figure out what bacteria are beneficial to C. elegans. In particular, the client was interested in studying the association between the density of Gluconobacter and the density of C. elegans. The client had collected some pilot data for this...
2. For the C. elegans normal and alcohol resistant worms, at what alcohol concentration do the worms start to show some effect? 3. At what concentration do the worms appear intoxicated (less control over movement)? 4. Is there a difference in the movement between the normal and alcohol resistance worms?
What do you think is one cultural practice that our descendants will look back on us and criticize us for? Why? How much should we be willing to give up in order to do some good? Why this amount, and not more or less? Do you think that there has to be a conflict between doing our moral duty and doing what's in our own self-interest? Answer this question with reference to either the issue of caring for animals or...
2. a) What would happen during the chemotaxis assay if C. elegans were starved rather than fed prior to the chemotaxis assay? b) Very briefly, how would you change this experiment to test your hypothesis in 2a? 3. a) "Since there is a deletion in daf-18, this is inherted as a recessive allele." Based on this statement, what would be the expected genotype of those individuals who cannot learn to associate salt with food? b) What is the probability of...
a. A company promises to pay you, and your descendants, $400 per year forever. Your required rate of returm is 10 percent. What is the most you would pay for this perpetuity? PV-Payment/Interest rate b. Future Value: If you deposit $12,000 in the bank today, what will it be worth in 15 years at9 percent compound growth? What is the formula for this problem? c. Present Value: If you plan to receive $12,000 from the bank in 15 years, what...
You are working on the protein α-catenin in C. elegans and have produced a monoclonal antibody that recognizes this protein. The normal protein identified by this antibody on a Western blot is 104kDa. You go on to identify a mutant that you think produces no protein at all (geneticist call such mutants “protein null” mutants) because Western blots performed using your antibody with protein from this mutant yield no signal. Later, however, another member of your research group sequences your...
