Each characteristic has the following mode of inheritance: Character Dominant RecessiveFlower position Axial (A) Terminal (a)Stem length Tall (T) Dwarf (t)Seed shape Round (R) Wrinkled (r) If a plant that is heterozygous for all […]

A type of phosphatase can be assayed using p-nitrophenyl phosphate but the assay is performed at pH 7.8, which is the optimum for this enzyme. The initial velocity measured at the highest substrate concentration was .45 deltaA_400 / minute. Convert this velocity to a change in concentration/minute (microM/minute). HINT Use […]
