Imagine that feeding behavior was eliminated when a radio-frequency lesion was used to damage the lateral hypothalamus of a rat, which suggested that cells within this region initiate feeding. If a subsequent study failed to observe a change in feeding after injection of kainic acid into the lateral hypothalamus, what conclusion would be appropriate?A. Glial cells within the lateral hypothalamus are key for the control of eating.
B. The investigator should have chosen a different inhibitory amino acid.
C. The lateral hypothalamus functions to inhibit eating.
D. The changes in eating noted in the first study are due to fibers that are passing through the lateral hypothalamus.
E. The changes in eating are due to damage to cell bodies within the lateral hypothalamus, and these act to initiate eating.

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.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. during the day, plants produce by splitting water molecules in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. at the same time, plants use cellular respiration to produce some of the needed by the light-independent reactions to make sugars. during the night, plants produce because takes place.
