irakobra [83]2 years ago

There are four naturally occurring nitrogenous bases, there are four different types of DNA nucleotides: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). This sequence is broken into a series of three-nucleotide units known as codons. Each DNA sequence that contains instructions to make a protein is known as a gene.

Sequencing DNA means determining the order of the four chemical building blocks - called "bases" - that make up the DNA molecule. The sequence tells scientists the kind of genetic information that is carried in a particular DNA segment.

DNA sequencing was built upon earlier knowledge of DNA polymerases and cell-free systems for replicating DNA. The chain-termination method, which makes clever use of a "defective" DNA nucleotide, now dominates DNA sequencing technology.

During what stage(s) of photosynthesis is glucose produced?
vladimir2022 [97]
The Photosynthesis process is divided into two stages, light and dark stages. Glucose is always produced at the dark stage of the photosynthesis process. The light stage of the process occur during the day. In the light stage, the plant capture energy from the sun by the help of chlorophyll, the energy obtained in the day is used during the dark period to produce glucose.

The cholera toxin, an AB exotoxin, attaches an ADP-ribose group to the host's stimulatory G factor (Gs). The normal function of
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<h2>b) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Some bacterial toxins cause disease by  altering the activity of G protein, cholera toxin is one of them
  • Cholera toxin catalyse ADP ribosylation of Gs and blocks GTPase activity thus Gs GTP become permanently active
  • Constitutive activation of Gs protein continuously induce adenylyl cyclase, cytosolic cAMP level rises that leads to activation of protein kinase A (pKA)
  • Activated pKA catalyse phosphorylation of two transmembrane proteins of intestinal epithelial cells:
  • CFTR cause excessive outflow of Cl- ion and Na+ H+ exchange cause efflux of Na+ ion, both enters in gut and form Na+ Cl-
  • Na+Cl- leads to outflow of water from the gut, resulting in diarrhea and dehydration and this condition may cause death of organisms due to loss of water and ions

How are proteins and nucleic acids related?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Nucleic Acids are precursor for Proteins.

Explanation:

Proteins are formed( protein units called amino acids) by the decoding of specific nucleic acids to give specific Proteins.

No nucleic acids don't provide energy, these are building block of genetic material (DNA). While Proteins provide energy.

No proteins don't carry genetic information.

Yes structure of protein is determined by nucleic acids because each nucleic acids code fir specific unit of amino acid which join to form protein.

No subunits of nucleic acids are nucleotides where as subunits of Proteins are called amino acids.

Please mark it branliest if the answer is little bit satisfying.
