Exercise 19
The following hypothetical pathway in which substance A is converted to substance C by enzymes 1 and 2. Substance B is the intermediate produced in this pathway: The following hypothetical pathway in which substance A is converted to substance C by enzymes 1 and 2. Substance B is the intermediate produced in this pathway:   A) If an individual is homozygous for a null mutation in the gene that codes for enzyme 1, what will the result be? B) If an individual is homozygous for a null mutation in enzyme 2, what will the result be? C) What if an individual is heterozygous for a dominant mutation in which enzyme 1 is overactive? D) What if an individual is heterozygous for a mutation that abolishes the activity of enzyme 2 (a null mutation)?
