According to Models of termination: torpedo and allosteric, which one is now the favored and why;

A. The Rat1 enzyme is very processive and quickly degrades the RNA in a 5’ -to-3’ direction, until it catches up to the still-transcribing polymerase from which the RNA is being spewed.

B. Termination depends on a conformational change in the elongating polymerase that reduces the processivity of the enzyme leading to spontaneous termination soon afterward.

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles

Consider a population which is changing from one generation to the next as per the equation N(t) = R*N(t-1), where N(t) represents the size of the population at time t and R is a constant growth parameter. Under what condition is the population likely to go extinct?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles

Three important biological parameters – generation time, per capita growth rate (r) and clutch size are a function of the organism‟s body size. Which of the curves (a) or (b) represents the correct relation of each of the parameters to body size?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles

The demographic transition model depicts demographic changes from high- to low-level births and deaths in five stages

Stage 1 is characterized by total population numbers are low and the high birth rate is balanced by the high death rate.

B) Stage 2 is characterized by high population growth rate is results of high birth rate however, decline death rate

C) Stage 4 is characterized by decline in the proportion of the population in the reproductive age group and these changes stabilizes population size

D) Stage 3 is characterized by falling birth rates and death rates and population growth rate is zero due to the less numbers of people in the reproductive age group
