Answer:

Archaea/ Bacteria

Explanation:

Archaea are prokaryotes( which means the nucleus has no compartment). It possesses bacteriorhodopsin which has functions unrelated to phosynthesis. The bacteriorhodopsin helps to absorb energy for the movement of ions across the cell membranes.

Bacteria is also a prokaryote and its pigment is called proteorhodopsin and its functions are also unrelated to phosynthesis. It helps in active transport of ions.

Answer:

A. Archaea / Bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteriorhodopsin is a protein used by Archaea, most notably by halobacteria, a class of the Euryarchaeota. It acts as a proton pump; that is, it captures light energy and uses it to move protons across the membrane out of the cell

Bacteriorhodopsin is an integral membrane protein usually found in two-dimensional crystalline patches known as "purple membrane", which can occupy up to nearly 50% of the surface area of the archaeal cell.

Proteorhodopsin also known as pRhodopsinbis a family of over 50 photoactive retinylidene proteins, a larger family of transmembrane proteins that use retinal as a chromophore for light-mediated functionality, in this case, a proton pump

Which substance on the plasma membrane helps identify chemical signals from outside the cell?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is carbohydrate chain.

Explanation:

Plasma membrane contain various proteins such as peripheral proteins,transmembrane proteins,GPI anchored proteins.Among them some protein contain carbohydrate chain basically oligosaccharide chain which is arranged in the extracellular portion of the plasma membrane.

 The principle function of these oligosaccharide side chains is to detect various chemical and biochemical signals from outside the cell .

 For example integrin is a glycoprotein that detect the signal for communicating with the adjacent cells.

What is the role of glucose in catabolite repression? What is the role of glucose in catabolite repression?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

It decreases the levels of cAMP in the cell, repressing transcription from the lac operon.

Explanation:

When glucose is absent, cAMP serves as coactivator binds to CRP, the catabolite gene activator protein. The CRP-cAMP complex binds to the site near the lac promoter and stimulates the expression of the operon by RNA polymerase many folds.

Catabolite repression refers to inhibition of the synthesis of enzymes of lactose catabolism when glucose is present as an energy source. In the presence of glucose, synthesis of cAMP is inhibited resulting in its lower cellular concentration. The lower cAMP levels do not allow the binding of cAMP and CRP. The result is reduced expressed of lac operon.
