To review:
The reasons for the increase in the human population over last 150 years.
Introduction:
The human population is increasing day by day. It is estimated that in last 150 years, the death rate of the population has decreased and the birth rate has increased at a significant level.

Explanation of Solution
The advancements in the medical technology and with the possibility of treating many diseases, the average death rate of the humans is decreased up to a significant level. The availability of the health care facility has reduced the miscarriages and infant mortality, which increased growth rate to a significant level.
As more infants are able to survive, more individual reach to adulthood and are able to produce more children. This has lead to an increase in the population growth exponentially.
The decrease in the death rate and increase in the survival rate of the infants is the main reason for the explosive increase in human population.

Transcription and Translation Practice: (Video 10-1 and 10-2) A. Below is the sense strand of a DNA gene. Using the sense strand, create the antisense DNA strand and label the 5' and 3' ends. B. Use the antisense strand that you create in part A as a template to create the mRNA transcript of the gene and label the 5' and 3' ends. C. Translate the mRNA you produced in part B into the polypeptide sequence making sure to follow all the rules of translation. 5'-AGCATGACTAATAGTTGTTGAGCTGTC-3' (sense strand) 4arrow_forwardWhat is the structure and function of Eukaryotic cells, including their organelles?

Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas.
