Why do sugar nucleotides, such as udp-glucose, play a role in glycogen synthesis, rather than sugar phosphates, such as glucose-

6-phosphate?.

HACTEHA [7]2 years ago
8 0

Glucose binds to the glycogenin protein to form the glycogen polymer. Glycogen synthase uses UDP glucose as the substrate for polymerization via (1-4) bonds. The branching enzyme has two distinct functions: it breaks the linear chain and forms a branch using a (1-6) linkage.

<h3>What are nucleotides?</h3>

A nucleotide is the primary component of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA). A nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA), a phosphate group, and a nitrogen-containing base. DNA nucleotides include adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). In RNA, the nucleotide uracil (U) replaces thymine. Polymeric DNA and RNA molecules are composed of long strands of nucleotides.

How many mongo seed are equal to 3.50 moles of mongo seeds?​
frozen [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2.107 x 10^24 mango seeds.

Explanation:

Given:-

number of moles of mango seeds = 3.50 mol

Solution:-

1 mol of mango seeds = 6.02 x 10^23 mango seeds

6.02 x 10^23 is Avagadro numbers

1 mole is the number of particles contained in a substance . The number of moles can also be calculated by dividing the mass by the molar mass of the element or molecule of the substance  with the Avogadro's number.

Therefore,

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 3.50 x 6.02 x 10^23 mango seeds

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 21.07 x 10^23 mango seeds

3.50 mol of mango seeds = 2.107 x 10^24 mango seeds

BRAINLY IF CORRECT!!!! When a fan is moving is convection, conduction, or raditation, and WHY?
Radda [10]

Answer:

<em>Moving</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>fan</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>convection</em><em>.</em>

<em>The faster moving air from the fan displaces the warmer air that is in direct contact with our skin. This enhances the rate of convective heat transfer, which means we feel cooler.</em>

In radishes, the gene that controls color exhibits incomplete dominance. Pure-breeding red radishes (RR) crossed with pure-breed
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Genotype ratio= 1 RW: 1 WW

Phenotype ratio= 1 purple: 1 white

Explanation:

According to the given information, the gene for the color of radishes exhibits incomplete dominance and the heterozygous genotype gives purple color to the radishes. The genotype of the heterozygous parent plant with purple radishes would be "RW". A cross between a purple radish (RW) and a white radish (WW) would give progeny in following ratio=

Genotype ratio= 1 RW: 1 WW

Phenotype ratio= 1 purple: 1 white
