A long carbon and hydrogen chain and a carboxyl group.
In images of fatty acids (the monomers of Lipids), it is depicted as a long carbon chain with hydrogen on the ends and connected to them as well, yet on the clear side is the carboxyl group.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
C. The enzyme with mutation 1 has decreased affinity for pyridoxal phosphate, whereas the enzyme with mutation 2 has lost the ability to bind to the substrates.
Explanation:
A coenzyme is an organic cofactor that binds with an enzyme in order to initiate or aid the function of the enzyme. A coenzyme binds to the active site of the enzyme (where the reaction occurs), thereby triggering its activation by modifying protein structure during the reaction. Some examples of coenzymes include Coenzyme A and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme (it is the active form of vitamin B6) that is required for the function of cystathionase. Moreover, cystathionase is an enzyme that enables cells the synthesis of cysteine from methionine (transsulfuration pathway). The binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the enzyme increases the binding affinity of the enzyme for the substrate, thereby influencing its activity. In this case, it is expected that mutation 1 reduces the binding affinity of the enzyme to the cofactor, and thereby the cofactor is required at a higher concentration to restore normal enzyme activity.
Answer: C. Dead snake fossilizing underground.
A fossil fuel is the fuel that is formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of dead plants and animals underground. These organisms and their remains remain deep inside the depth of numerous layers of soil resulting in fuel produced after millions of years. A carbon sink refers to a natural or artificial reservoir that stores and absorbs atmospheric carbon by physical and biological process. The formation of fossil fuel inside the earth is carbon sink.
Dead snake will be added as a matter on which biological activity called as decomposition will take place. The organic matter of dead snake will be decomposed by microbes in the soil. The organic matter being the source of carbon, after decomposition will become the reservoir of carbon in the form of fossil fuel.
Therefore, dead snake fossilizing underground is the example of carbon source becoming a carbon sink.
Answer;
The above statement is false.
The ballistic method of developing flexibility is not the safest form of stretching.
Explanation;
-Ballistic stretching uses the momentum of a moving body or a limb in an attempt to force it beyond its normal range of motion. It involves stretching by bouncing into (or out of) a stretched position, using the stretched muscles as a spring which pulls you out of the stretched position. An example is the ballistic method of touching your toes would be to bounce and move toward your feet.
