Biologists performed an experiment with flies to examine the effects of population size on the maintenance of genetic variation  and  on  egg-to-adult survival.  From  a  large  source  population, they  randomly  assigned  eggs  to  three experimental  populations  of  size  N,  equal  to  20,  60,  and0100.  For  later  generations,  they  collected  N  eggs  from each  population  and  moved  them  into  identical  vials  that  co0ntained  f2re0sh  me4d0ium.  Th6e0y  coun8te0d  the  number  of adult flies that emerged and used tissue samples from the adults for genetic analyses. Genetic variation was measured by  scoring  alleles  at  several  polymorphic  loci  and  expressed  as  the  average  number  of  alleles  at  those  loci.  The results are summarized in Figure 1 and Figure 2 below.

Based on Figure 1, which of the following best describes the change in genetic variation over time? 

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. It increased in all three populations.
  2. It was unchanged in the largest population and increased in the two smaller populations. 
  3. It was unchanged in all three populations.
  4. It was unchanged in the two larger populations and declined in the smallest population.

 If all the ATP are radiolabelled in the cytosol, then predict about radioactivity of each compound.

 a) All enzyme  of glycolysis will be radiolabelled except 2-phophoglycerate and phosphenol pyruvate

 b) 2-phophoglycerate and phosphenol pyruvate are radiolabelled only the next cycle of glycolysis after cytosolic ATP radiolabelling

 c) 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate will be radiolabelled at 1 and 3 both position

 d) 2-phosphoglycerate are not radiolabelled because its enzyme phosphoglycerate mutase active site contain histidine residue exchange phosphate group from 3-phosphoglycerate

 which prediction about radiolabelling is incorrect?

The enzyme aldolase, catalyzes a reversible aldol condensation, Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is cleaved to yield two different triose phosphates, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, an aldose, and dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a ketose. There are two classes of aldolases such as;

A) Class I aldolases

B) Class II aldolases

i) Found in animals and plants

ii) Found in in fungi and bacteria

iii) formation of protonated Schiff base on enzyme and its active site contain lysine residue

iv) do not form the Schiff base intermediate and a zinc ion at the active site is coordinated with the carbonyl oxygen at C-2
