both ethanol and glycine are small molecules of approximately equal molecular weight. However, ethanol is much more membrane permeable than glycine. What accounts for the large difference in membrane permeability between ethanol and glycine

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ethanol is a non polar molecule.Therefore it passes through the cells membrane easily by diffusion like other non polar like CO2 and water.However, glycine is an amino acid ( the simplest amino acid) a charged molecule /polar molecule/.it can not therefore pass through the bilayer by simple diffusion because of the phospholipid bi-layers. Therefore special transport proteins are needed for its passage across the cell membrane.

Example-GLYT 1 and 2 are the carrier proteins  specific for glycine transport across the membrane.

A young man who works on a ranch and lives in the log bunkhouse experiences sudden fever with muscle aches. A few days later he begins to cough and have difficulty breathing, and goes to an urgent care clinic. His blood pressure is low. A blood sample reveals a low platelet count. A Gram stain of a sputum sample shows only a few small bacteria present. Which of the following is the most likely infecting agent?
A) Bacillus anthracis
B) Hantavirus
C) Histoplasma capsulatum
D) influenza
E) Mycoplasma pneumonia

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: B) Hantavirus.

Explanation:

Hantavirus is an infectious disease caused by a family of viruses that exist in rodents such as rats. These viruses can either cause Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS), especially in the Americas; or Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), which is most common in Europe and Asia.

The young man described has symptoms that match the common symptoms of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome, such as fever and muscle aches (known as the 'early symptoms'), as also coughing and having difficulty breathing (known as the 'late symptoms'). Some of these symptoms can easily be confused with Influenza, but the shortness of breath and the fact that the patient has a history of working and living in a rural environment suggest Hantavirus.

HPS also produces a low platelet count and high white cell count.

Infection by Bacillus anthracis is uncommon, plus the lack of symptoms that match the disease (such as a sore throat) and the existence of muscle aches in the patient (which does not match Anthrax) can help discard this option.

Histoplasma capsulatum is a fungus that can cause lung infection when its spores are inhaled. Its symptoms are similar to HPS but with the addition of red bumps in the legs and joint pain, not muscle aches.

Mycoplasma pneumonia is a bacteria that produces pneumonia. Most of its symptoms match the patient except for the lack of a sore throat.

In humans, oculocutaneous (OCA) albinism is a collection of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by an absence of the pigment melanin in skin, hair, and eyes. That is, normal pigmentation (A) is dominant over albinism (a). For this question, assume it is a single gene with two alleles. Assume it is a single gene with two alleles. If two people have normal pigmentation, what possible phenotypes may be observed in their offspring?

Answers

Answer:

The definition of the problem is listed in the explanation segment below.

Explanation:

The parent phenotype is an albino on every one of them. Albino gene seems to be located primarily while it has its whole genotypes in such a recessive state called "aa".  When this trait becomes autosomal, it does have an equivalent amount of alleles across both parent members. The gametes including its albino genotypes.

A bacterium synthesizes DNA from each replication fork at a rate of 1000 nucleotides per second. This bacterium completely replicates its circular chromosome by theta replication in 30 min. How many base pairs does the chromosome contain

Answers

Answer:

180,000 nucleotide pairs = 180 kilobase pair (kbp) =  0.18 Megabase pairs (Mbp)

Explanation:  

Synthesis rate = 1,000 nucleotides (nts) x second

1 minute = 60 seconds  

30 minutes = 60 x 30 = 1,800 seconds

>> 1,800 seconds x 1,000 nuleotides per second = 180,000 nts  

A typical bacterial genome contains approximately 5 Mbps of DNA that conforms a circular chromosome localized in the cytoplasm. In consequence, in this case the bacterial genome is small (0.18 Mbp).

DNA replication is a process in which the fragment gets replicated to form two indistinguishable replicas of itself. It is vital for the growth and passing of hereditary information to the newly produced daughter cells.

180,000 nucleotide pairs are formed in the replicating bacteria.

This can be calculated by:

[tex]\text{Synthesis rate} & = 1,000 \;\text{nucleotides (nts)} \times \text{ second}[/tex]

We know that 1 minute = 60 seconds

So, 30 minutes = 60 x 30 = 1,800 seconds

[tex]\text{1,800 seconds} \times \text{ 1,000 nucleotide per second} & = 180,000 \;\text{nts}[/tex]

The bacterial genome thus produced will have 180,000 nucleotide pairs or 180 kilo-base pairs (kbp) or 0.18 Megabase pairs (Mbp) in the chromosome.

(e) Predict the effect of the removal of the final electron acceptor on the rate of carbon fixation by the chloroplast. Justify your prediction

Answers

Answer:

The ATPs produced during Chemeiosmosis, in the chloroplast is needed during Calvin cycle to fix carbon for production of CHO, protein and fats  during conversion of 3C-glyceride phosphate(GP) to 2C- triose phosphate.(TP) .

The ATPs is needed for this reduction to take place in the presence of NADPH(which is oxdized to NADP).

Therefore, if the final electron acceptor is removed, there will be no electron transport chains which generated the PMF, for pumping H+ across into the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast, to generate the electrochemical gradients, needed for  the energy for ATPase synthase enzymes,to synthesize ATPs production.

Therefore, the removal of the electron acceptor (oxygen) leads to stoppage of electron transport chain, and hence loss of ATP s, and therefore, no Carbon fixation as CHO, or protein, or fats.

Answer:

(2) UAU-CGA-GGA-GUU-GCG-CUC

Explanation:

The mRNA is produced by the process of transcription which transcribes the DNA to mRNA which can be recognised and read by the ribosomes.

The ribosomal subunits get attached to the mRNA which scans or read the mRNA in the form of codons or triplets of nucleotides. These codons code for particular amino acid and about 64 codons code for 21 amino acids.

In the given question, the sequence of the amino acids in the peptide has been provided based on which the sequence of codons can be easily decoded.

For the provided peptide, the sequence of amino acid will be Option-2 which is UAU-CGA-GGA-GUU-GCG-CUC as this sequence of codons has the codons arranged according to the sequence of the amino acid.

Thus, Option-2 is the correct answer.

UAU-CGA-GGA-GUU-GCG-CUC is the sequence code that encodes the mRNA TYR-ARG-GLY-VAL-ALA-LEU

A codon table is usually employed in translating the genetic code into amino acid sequences

mRNA plays a major role in protein synthesis which originate from the joining together of individual amino acids in the ribosomes.

These amino acids are encoded by three letters that form a codon. There are 64 different codons in the genetic code encoding for the entire 20 amino acids.

______ is the process responsible for the situation above. This process can cause DNA to change in many ways. Three such ways are ______, _____, and _____.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Mutation can cause a change in DNA to change in many ways.

Mutation is the sudden change in the genome of an organism that can be heritable from parent by their offspring.

Missense mutation - This occur when a base pair is substituted for by another leading to the formation of an entirely new amino acid.

Nonsense mutation - This occurs when a base pair is substituted for by another leading to the formation of a new amino acid. The new amino acid form therefore send a stop signal to the sequence of amino acid been built.

Insertion or deletion - Insertion mutation inserts new base pair into the sequence changing the number of the DNA base while deletion deletes a base pair changing the number of DNA base from the amino acid sequence.
