Summary Introduction

To predict: Whether Viagra will be helpful in occurrence of normal de-etiolation in leaves of aurea mutant tomato.

Concept introduction:

In de-etiolation process, the first step is the reception of signals from the light. This reception is done by phytochrome that is present in the plasma membrane. This phytochrome acts as a first messenger that initiates the de-etiolation.

University of Seville Researchers from the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Seville have recently published a study in which they state that diets supplemented with aqueous extract of Annona muricata L. leaves can prevent the symptoms associated with fibromyalgia, so improving the lives of these patients. Leaves of the species Annona muricata L. come from a tree of between 4 and 6 metres in height, from the botanical family Annonacese. They are simple leaves, oblong and egg like or oblong and elliptical in shape and between 5 and 15 cm in length. This species is native to the tropical areas of the Americas and is especially abundant in the Amazon region. It is usually cultivated for its medicinal use. The leaves have different ethnomedical uses according to their country of origin. The most important uses in traditional medicine, scientifically validated in pre-clinical tests, are for inflammation, pain, infections, diabetes and cancer. "The consumption of extract of…
Assume that two pigments, red and bluc, mix to give the normal purple color of petunia petals. Separate biochemical pathways synthesize the two pigments, as shown in pathways I and Il in the accompanying diagram. "White" refers to compounds that are not pigments (total lack of pigment results in a white petal). Red pigment forms from a yellow intermediate that is normally at a concentration loo kow to color petals. Bluc mixed with yellow makes green. Assume that no mutations are lethal. Pathway I.. White Blue Pathway I White, Yellow Red Pathway II White, White, A third pathway, whose compoundk do not contribute pelal pigmentation, normally docs not allfect the bluc and red pathways. However, if one of its intermediates (white3) should build up in concentration, it can be converted into the ycllow intermediate of the red pathway. In the diagram, the letiers A through E represent enzymes. The enzymes' correspoonding genes, all of which are unlinked, may be symbolized by the same letters.…
