In which of the following ways is the function of the surface of a microsphere similar to the function of an actual cell membrane? a.both make it possible for the conditions in the interior to be different from the conditions outside. b.both provide a barrier that keeps water from flowing across it so the interior remains dry. c.both separate the rna that forms in the interior from any rna that might form in the environment. d.both can actively move molecules into the interior or out into the surrounding environment.

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.
