In humans a normal allele for one of the polypeptide chains of the protein hemoglobin is incompletely dominant to the allele for an abnormal polypeptide chain. Individuals with two abnormal alleles have the disease sickle cell anemia; they only make irregular polypeptide chains. Heterozygotes are called carriers or people with the trait. Their hemoglobin contains both the normal polypeptide and the irregular one. Problem: Two of your friends want to marry and have children. They both are carriers for Sickle...

Statistical Mechanics Problem Counting Configurations ? A certain protein molecule consists of a one-dimensional chain of six molecular sub-units, or monomers. Each monomer can take a short or a long structural form, with lengths L and 2L, respectively, but with the same energy in each case. A particular configuration of the protein with total length 8L is il- lustrated below, with a short monomer represented using a dot and a long monomer represented as a dash. How many configurations of...

Consider an industry that consists of two firms, Alpha and Beta, that produce identical products. Suppose that Alpha seeks to preempt Beta by making its capacity decision a year before Beta’s. Thus, by the time Beta makes its decision, it will have observed Alpha’s choice and must adjust its decision making accordingly. We will assume that each firm always produces at full capacity. Thus, expansion of capacity entails a trade-off. The firm may achieve a larger share of the market,...

Protein electrophoresis reveals 5 different fractions of protein. (Albumin, alpha-1, alpha-2, beta and gamma)Though the pre-albumin fraction does not show up on the electrophoresis pattern, please include information on the pre-albumin fraction with the albumin fraction. Explain what components make up each fraction. Your grade will reflect how well you describe each component. Stick to the main points, such as: what components are in the fraction and what are the actions of the components. ANSWER: Explain what disease states are...

Consider a alpha-helix "stretch" of a protein consisting of 20 amino acid residues compared to a Beta-strand "stretch" of a protein consisting of 20 amino acids(which of course is part of a Beta-sheet). What is the length of this alpha-helix and Beta-strand portion of the protein in angstroms?

Consider two portfolios. One portfolio consists of a $10,000 investment in AAPL, and the other also consists of a $10,000 investment in AAPL, but with 50% leverage ($5,000 of the investor's capital, $5,000 borrowed). Now consider two separate moves in the value of AAPL; a 10% upside return and a 10% downside return. Explain the effect of leverage on the volatility and return by comparing the performance of each portfolio.

Consider an economy with two countries, Alpha and Beta. In Alpha, Computers cost $600 to produce, and Cell Phones cost $150 to produce. In Beta, Computers cost $750 to produce, and Cell Phones cost $250 to produce. Both countries are operating efficiently and with closed trade borders. If these countries agree to open their borders and trade with one another, is it possible for them to find a mutually beneficial trade agreement? If so, who will focus on computers and...
