HIV's genome of RNA includes the code for reverse transcriptase (RT), an enzyme that acts early in infection to synthesize a DNA genome off of an RNA template. The HIV genome also codes for protease (PR), an enzyme that acts later in infection by cutting long viral polyproteins into smaller, functional proteins. Both RT and PR represent potential targets for antiretroviral drugs. Drugs called nucleoside analogs (NA) act against RT, whereas drugs called protease inhibitors (PI) act against PR. Which mechanism produces variation for evolution by shuffling existing alleles?(a) Use a series of NAs, one at a time, and change about once a week.(b) Use a single PI, but slowly increase the dosage over the course of a week.(c) Use high doses of NA and a PI at the same time for a period not to exceed one day.(d) Use moderate doses of NA and two different PIs at the same time for several months.

Hormones are chemical molecules produced by endocrine glands. one such endocrine gland is the thyroid gland, which synthesizes the thyroid hormone, which in turn affects the heart muscles. which two statements describe the probable reason for the function of the hormone? the cells in the heart have specific receptors that allow for the intake of hormones. the heart and the endocrine glands have the exact same types of cells. all cells make the same types of hormones. thyroid hormones show their effect on the heart by means of specialized cells. thyroid cells and cardiac cells have different dna.

Suppose that on a small island off the coast of scotland, 32 percent of the population has blue eyes, which means that these individuals must be homozygous for the blue eye color gene (bb). the only other eye color found on the island is brown, and individuals that are homozygous for the brown eye color gene (bb) or heterozygous (bb) will have brown eyes because brown is the dominant gene. assume this population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium. if 100 babies are born next year, how many of these would you expect to have brown eyes and be heterozygous? a. 58 b. 49 c. 29 d. 43
