You're on the pilot episode of a new game show called "The Transport Factor." The host hands you three different amino acids, fo

ur different sugars, and two different ions. Then the host shouts, "How many different proteins does the cell need to move these molecules across the plasma membrane using facilitated transport?" Quickly, you correctly respond: _____.

5 0

Answer:

Nine

Explanation:

These are called carrier proteins, and they have what it is called: solute-binding sites, that when saturated, they are considered "full".

Each different amino acid needs a separate carrier protein to move it across the plasma membrane, so that's 3, then the four different sugars need separate carriers as well, we add 4 more then, we have 7 so far, finally the 2 different ions use 2 more, plus the other 7, totals 9.

Which type of blood cell is in highest numbers in the blood?
Helen [10]
The answer would be <span>Erythrocytes. Refer to the chart below for more information.
 
</span>From the chart we can see the most abundant cell in human body is Erythrocytes, also known as red blood cells at 4.5 - 5.5 millions per mL.

Platelets, at 1.4-4.0 millions per mL.

White blood cells are 5,000-10,000 per mL. Neutrophils, lymphocytes and basophils are all included in this number.

I hope this helped!

How do you find the similarity between two protein sequences?
swat32

The function similarity between two protein sequences is quantified by relating the term specificities of the two terms and the specificity of their common ancestor term. Using this function similarity metric, the relationship between sequence similarity and function similarity can be modeled.

To demonstrate the similarities and differences between two protein sequences, they can be compared. In order to reduce the Root Mean Square (RMS) discrepancy between the second protein and the first geometry, the second of the two proteins is rotated and translated. If switching out atom pairs would lower the RMS error, it is done. There are three ways to depict differences. The most straightforward is to create a list of the atoms whose positions differ by the most, however this is only partially useful because some protein components are very flexible, meaning that huge geometric changes may be followed by only very tiny changes in energy. Changes in bond lengths are a more significant form of variation. Considering the high force constants of covalent bonds, any substantial change in bond length.
