The pH inside cells is normally near pH 7. At pH 7 which statement is true about the charges (ionization state) of the α-Carboxyl and α-Amino groups of an amino acid?

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
  1. The α-Carboxyl group is 1- and the α-Amino group is 1+.

  2. The α-Carboxyl group is 1+ and the α-Amino group is 1-.

  3. The α-Carboxyl group is 1- and the α-Amino group is uncharged.

  4. Both groups are uncharged (not ionized) at pH 7.

In birds, sex is determined by a ZW chromosome scheme. Males are ZZ and females are ZW. A recessive lethal allele that causes death of the embryo is sometimes present on the Z chromosome in pigeons. What would be the sex ratio in the offspring of a cross between a male that is heterozygous for the lethal allele and a normal female?
