ATP is the molecule that supplies the energy needed to join glucose molecules together to form a molecule of glycogen.
Explanation:
ATP is the energy currency of cells. It is used to power all non-spontaneous biochemical reactions in the body including the conversion of glucose to glycogen.
Glycogen has a higher Gibbs free energy than glucose (because it lowers entropy) meaning you need energy to convert glucose to glycogen. This reaction does not occur spontaneously because of it akin to ‘climbing a hill’. ATP is involved in the condensation reaction of joining glucose molecules together into glycogen via glycosidic bonds.

Answer: The bacteria transformed with this particular plasmid will form white colonies on the plates containing ampicillin and Xgal.
Explanation: The lacZ gene produces an enzyme called β-galactosidase which is responsible for the breakdown of lactose into glucose and galactose. The lacZ gene is one of the three genes (the other two being lacA and lacY) of the lac operon which is responsible for the transport and mechanism of lactose in E. coli and many other bacteria.
In recombinant DNA technology, when a plasmid is to be used to transform a host cell, such markers are used to help screen the transformed cells from the ones that have not taken up the plasmid. Xgal present in the plates is an artificial substrate which is hydrolyzed by
β-galactosidase into 5-bromo-4-chloro-indoxyl which will dimerize and oxidise into 5,5'-dibromo-4,4'dichloro-indigo. This is a blue pigment which will give blue color to the bacterial cells. Introducing a DNA fragment in this lacZ gene will make it non-functional so it will not be able to produce the enzyme.
Therefore, when a bacterial cell is transformed with a plasmid containing ampicillin resistance gene and a DNA fragment introduced in the lacZ gene and then grown on plates containing ampicillin and Xgal, white colored colonies will appear. The white colonies will show the bacterial cells that have successfully taken up the plasmid with the DNA fragment incorporated in the lacZ gene as this will render the gene non-functional and will not produce β-galactosidase which will breakdown Xgal to give blue colonies. Since the plates contain ampicillin, only the bacterial cells that have been successfully transformed with the plasmid ( the ones that have the DNA fragment and the ones without it) will grow as the ampicillin resistance will give them resistance against ampicillin in the plates. The bacterial cells that have not taken up the plasmid will not be resistant to ampicillin and will not form colonies on the plate.
This is called blue-white screening which is used to identify successfully transformed host cells. A picture of this is given in the attachment, taken from the following website:

The correct answer is proteins.
The oxidative phosphorylation in the eukaryotes takes place within the mitochondria with the help of electron transport chain. The main objective of the electron transport chain is to accumulate enough amount of protons in the intermembrane space so that there will be a concentration gradient which would help in the production of ATP.
The electron transport chain comprises of various molecules, but majorly the proteins, which are situated in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
Answer:
(y+9)(y-3)
Explanation:
9*(-3) = -27
9+(-3) = 6
Answer to Question 1:
True
Explanation
As indicated in the passage, fruiting bodies of fungi differ structurally. However, different species can appear to be similar and often misleading thus creating the risk of food poisoning.
Question 2:
Many experiments require student-supplied items, such as _____.
1. Chicken
2. Fresh flowers
3. Distilled water
4. All of the Above.
Answer to Question 2:
The correct answer is 3.
Explanation
Water comes in varying degrees of purity. When water that contains other substrates or impurities is used for an experiment, it distorts the results and creates errors. So the scientist's ability to determine the root of a problem becomes enervated.
Using distilled water impurities removes the possibility of such an error. Distilled water is also used for cleaning laboratory equipment.
