Chloramphenicol binds in the active site of the large ribosomal subunit and inhibits peptidyl transferase activity in the 23s rr
valentina_108 [34]
This inhibition is restricted to bacterial translation because; the peptidyl transferase is an enzyme aminoacyltransferase as well as the primary enzymatic function of the ribosome, which forms peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids using tRNAs during the process of translation. Therefore, inhibition of this enzyme means that the process oof translation wont take place, hence proteins will not be formed and thus the bacteria will die.

A frameshift mutation that occurs very early in a protein sequence would have what effect on the protein's structure? see sectio
ExtremeBDS [4]
I think a frameshift mutation that occurs very early in a protein sequence would have an effect on the structure of the protein such that the primary, secondary, and tertiary structures would be altered. A frameshift mutation occurs when a protein is drastically altered because of an insertion or a deletion. Insertions and deletions cause a change in the length of a gene, which causes a shift in the codon reading frame.

Term referring to the process in which certain compounds increase in concentration within biotic tissues as they move up through
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

a. Biomagnification

Explanation:

Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.

For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.

The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.
