Answer:

Transamination reaction:

Transmaination reaction may be defined as a type of chemical reaction that involves the transfer of an amino group to the another keto acid fort the formation of new amino acid. The non essential amino acid can be easily converted to essential amino acid by this transmination reaction.

This reaction is important for the important mteabolic pathways of the body. The cofactor required for the transamination reaction is pyridoxal-5'-phosphate. This cofactor also works as a derivative of vitamin B6. This cofactor is converted to pyridoxamine-5'-phosphate during the reaction.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The virus will transfer the DNA encoding cholera toxin to the next bacteria it infects, which will make that bacteria cholera-causing.

Explanation:

The process described in this question is a kind of gene transfer in bacteria called TRANSDUCTION. Transduction is the transfer of fragments of DNA from one bacterium to another via a virus called bacteriophage.

As stated in this question, the virus (bacteriophage) infects a cholera-causing bacterium. The bacteriophage moves from lysogenic cycle to lytic cycle and includes some pieces of the bacterial DNA, which encodes information for making the cholera toxin, in its own genome.

This means that the cholera-making toxin DNA is now a part of the virus's genome and hence, will transfer it to the next bacteria it infects in a process called TRANSDUCTION. This will make that bacteria a cholera causing bacteria.

In the dna double helix archaic pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine
zavuch27 [327]

Adenine which is a purine base, always pairs with the pyrimidine Thymine in DNA and Uracil(also a pyrimidine) in RNA. The bond which is present between the two bases is a double hydrogen bond.

Guanine which is also a purine base, always pairs with the pyrimidine Cytosine, in the case of both, DNA and RNA. The bond which is present between the two bases is a triple hydrogen bond and hence, is stronger than the A-G double bond.

IceJOKER [234]
The answer to this question would be: visceral motor

The muscle in the stomach is not consciously moved. The muscle regulated automatically by the nervous system based on some mechanism like other organs. The things that can influence the muscle would be when the autonomous nervous system is activated. This kind of motor innervation is called visceral motor.
