In your oxidation experiment, we are using hypochlorite as the oxidizing agent, why?.

1 answer:

4 0

They are good bleaching agents and disinfectants due to their oxidizing potency. Hypochlorites can be employed in organic chemistry to oxidize primary alcohols into carboxylic acids.

<h3>What function does hypochlorite serve as an oxidizer?</h3>

In this experiment, we utilize the test paper to make sure that the reaction has received more bleach than is necessary to completely oxidize the alcohol.
Since the process moves forward more quickly in an acidic environment, hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is assumed to be the real oxidizing agent (although this is not confirmed).
Bleach, also known as sodium hypochlorite, is most usually used as a disinfectant. It is a multipurpose disinfectant that kills mycobacterium, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms.

The drug colchicine inhibits the formation of spindle fibers during mitosis. If you treat dividing plant cells with colchicine,

vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

During metaphase of cell division, the chromosomes line up in the metaphase plate and the spindle fibers from the poles extend and attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes. The spindle then contracts and pull different chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell before the parent cell divides. If spindle fibers do not form, then the chromosomes will not separate during anaphase.

Therefore, the final cell after mitosis will be a cell with double the number of chromosomes -because if you remember, during interphase, genetic material is replicated so each daughter cell can have its copy-. Due to quality control in the process of cell divisison, this cell will mostly undergo apoptosis, otherwise, it could develop into cancer.

How many possible open reading frames (frames without stop codons) are there that extend through the following sequence? 5'... C

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

There are 4 reading frames without stop codons.

Explanation:

1) To find the possible reading frames you need to separate your sequence in codons (trios) for the 5'-> 3' sense, first, excluding the first nucleotide, then excluding 2 nucleotides and then not excluding nucleotides.

5'... C TTA CAG TTT ATT GAT ACG GAG AAG G... 3' NO STOP CODON

5'... CT TAC AGT TTA TTG ATA CGG AGA AGG... 3' NO STOP CODON

5'... CTT ACA GTT TAT TGA TAC GGA GAA GG... 3'

2)Then you find the complementary sequence (which you already have)

3'... GAA TGT CAA ATA ACT ATG CCT CTT CC... 5'

3'... GA ATG TCA AAT AAC TAT GCC TCT TCC... 5'

3'... G AAT GTC AAA TAA CTA TGC CTC TTC C... 5'

3) Next, you have to obtain the reverse complementary

CCT TCT CCG TAT CAA TAA ACT GTA AG NO STOP CODON

CC TTC TCC GTA TCA ATA AAC TGT AAG NO STOP CODON

C CTT CTC CGT ATC AAT AAA CTG TAA G

4)Now you need to find start (AGT in terms of DNA) and stop codons(TAA, TAG, TGA, also in terms of DNA), in 5->3 and de reverse complementary.

As you can see, you have for open reading frames that lack of stop codon, unfortunately, they also lack of AGT, the start codon.

I added a table where you can find thestart and stop codons as well as the proteins that they translate to in terms of RNA.

I hope you find this information interesting and useful, good luck!

What two things must come together to form a seed?

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Double fertilization involves two sperm cells; one fertilizes the egg cell to form the zygote, while the other fuses with the two polar nuclei that form the endosperm. After fertilization, the fertilized ovule forms the seed while the tissues of the ovary become the fruit.

b) Positive feedback occurs specific situations while negative feedback occurs in the body.

c) Positive feedback break down the homeostasis while negative feedback maintain the conditions of homeostasis.

d) Positive feedback has less frequent mechanism while negative feedback has more frequent mechanism.

e) Positive feedback enhances change while negative feedback resists change.

f) Positive feedback has a wider range while negative feedback has a narrow range.
