Which of the following is not a function of Proteins

Biology
1 answer:
Shtirlitz [24]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:  

anything contrary to the information provided below

Explanation:

Proteins determine the shape and structure of cells and the direction of almost all vital processes. Protein functions are specific to each of them and allow cells to maintain their integrity, defense of external agents, damage repair, control and regular functions, etc. selective binding to molecules. Structural proteins agree with other molecules of the same protein to cause a larger structure. However, other proteins bind to different molecules: antibodies to specific antigens, hemoglobin to oxygen, enzymes to their substrates, regulators of genetic expression to DNA, hormones to their specific receptors, etc.

Based on the assumptions described in the introduction why might the mark and recapture method of population estimation be more
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

In ecology, the mark and recapture method is utilized to predict the population size of the animals. In the method, the part of the population is caught, marked, and then discharged. Afterward another part is caught, and the number of marked organisms within the sample is measured.  

The mark and recapture method of predicting the population is more precise in the setting of lakes as a lake is a fairly steady environment, while the streams and rivers are in motion, and thus the population is much more dynamic.

he complete set of an organism's or population's genes. A variation at a single position in a DNA sequence among individuals of
ad-work [718]

Answer:

The complete set of an organism's or population's genes. B. genome

A variation at a single position in a DNA sequence among individuals of the same species. F. single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)

A lab instrument used to precisely measure and move small amounts of liquid. E. micropipette

A procedure that makes thousands of copies from a small sample of DNA. J. polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

A word that means to copy. I. amplify

An enzyme that copies a single strand of DNA. A. DNA polymerase  

A single, short piece of DNA that must be present to copy a DNA template. D. primer  

Viruses that infect bacteria. C. bacteriophages  

Short enzymes that cut DNA samples at a specific base sequence. H. restriction endonucleases (restriction enzymes).

A process that separates pieces of DNA by their size using an electrical current. K. gel electrophoresis

A series of chemical reactions that generate a cellular response. L. signal transduction

A molecule that binds to another molecule. G. ligand  

Explanation:

Genome is also defined as a full set of genetic material in an organism.

SNP is usually referred to a substitution of a single nucleotide at a specific position in the DNA.

Micropipette is used for the precise measurement and for the exact amount of liquid delivery.

PCR is a widely used technique in molecular biology, used for the amplification (replication) of DNA fragments. It is performed thanks to heat-resistant enzyme (Taq polymerase) through the cyclic reactions. Polymerases are enzymes that add nucleotides in order to make chanis-polymers of nucleic acid (polymerization) and they require short DNA segment (primer) in order to start the polymerization. Restriction enzymes are enzymes that recognize and cut DNA at specific site (restriction site) and are widely used in DNA cloning.

Signal transduction is a set of steps from signal binding to cell response that are transmitted through the cell. It usually starts with ligand-receptor binding.

What is the difference between the leading and lagging strands
mezya [45]
In DNA there are two types of strands, 5'/5 prime, which is the strand, aka the leading strand. 
There is also the 3' strand which is the lagging strand. 
The difference between these two is the the leading strand is discontinous during replication, they must create ozaki fragments.
The other lagging strand can just have the whole strand replicated at the same time
