Answer: Peptide bond

Explanation: A peptide bond is the covalent chemical bond  bond that holds together two amino acids which occurs when the carboxylic group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, linking the two molecules and releasing a water molecule catalyzed by peptidyl transferase, an RNA-based enzyme  integrated into the growing chain.

In the elongation stage ie when Long chain polypeptides are forming , peptide bonds  are formed by linking many amino acids to each other. These peptide bonds of amino acids are  relatively unstable, and  can break spontaneously in a slow process as can be seen especially  in enzymes of living organisms in the making and breaking of bonds.

Some bacteria live in the roots of plants like soybeans and peas. What is the role of these bacteria in the nitrogen cycle.
love history [14]

Answer:The nitrogen present in the soil is not directly used by the bacteria. It can be used only when the nitrogen is converted into usable form. These bacteria convert  atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, then nitrite which is then converted into nitrate. This nitrate is used by the roots of the plants like soybeans and peas. This is the role of bacteria present in the roots of the plant to convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable form that can be used by plants.

Bone formation begins when ____________ secrete the initial semisolid organic form of bone matrix called ____________ .
butalik [34]

Answer:

a. osteoblasts

b. osteoid

Explanation:

Osteoblasts are the fundamental cell of bone tissue. They are the cells that synthesize the bone matrix called osteoid from which it is made from the skeleton of bone fish, to the skeleton of humans. Since the bone skeleton is an evolutionary paraphiletic characteristic (it is present in several taxonomic groups that have evolved from the same ancestor).

Osteoblasts are responsible for the development and growth of bones during the juvenile stage of individuals and are also responsible for maintaining adult bone and regenerating bone when it breaks.

Osteogenesis is the process of differentiation of osteoblasts. The cells from which osteoblasts differ are called osteoprogenitors. The differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells, which come from the mesoderm, periosteum or bone marrow, is induced by growth factors called bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), capable of inducing the growth of bone, cartilage or connective tissue. When an osteoprogenitor cell receives a BMP signal, it quickly begins to express the genes to generate collagen, osteonectin and alkaline phosphatase, among other compounds necessary for bone growth. When the bone grows, it ends up wrapping some of the osteoblasts and they lose their ability to replicate, at that time they are dedicated to bone maintenance and not to their synthesis and are called osteocytes.

Would you say that there is a great deal of diversity among the species living here?
bonufazy [111]
Our planet has so many different ecosystems in which species live in. Whether it is the rainforest or a desert region, it seems that almost any place on earth can be one in which species have learned to adapt to living there. In short, yes there is great diversity on this planet.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:mutualism

Explanation:

In a mutualistic relation,both organisms involved benefit from the activities of each other. The benefits may be nourishment,shelter, protection etc.

In the above example,the birds are known to guide humans by responding to specific calls made by the human. They guide humans to beehives and then in return gets to feed on left over honey. Both the bird and human benefits by getting nourishment.

Mutualism is unlike parasitism where one of the organism involved benefits and the other organisms Is most likely harmed. It is also not commensalism, where one organism benefits and the other neither benefits nor is harmed
