DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid and is the carrier molecule for hereditary genetic information.
The DNA molecule is double-stranded, consisting of two complementary polynucleic chains which are antiparallel-facing and which are wound in a double helix (helical form). These two chains are bound by hydrogen bonds between each pair of nucleotides (between guanine and cytosine there are three hydrogen bonds and between adenine and thymine there are two hydrogen bonds). and since the DNA is condensed in the form of chromatin, it also helps to keep this double-stranded structure.

Porque un grupo de celulas pequeñas ayudarian a un organismo a mantener la homeostasis mejor que una celula grande?
NeX [460]

Answer:  

Una parte fundamental de la homeostasis es la transferencia y la ingesta de moléculas (sea necesario o no). Es importante que la célula pueda llevar los nutrientes necesarios inmediatamente donde los necesita y poder deshacerse de los subproductos dañinos del proceso celular. Es igualmente importante poder regular la concentración de agua. Las células más pequeñas tienen una superficie más grande en relación con su volumen (su superficie se escala con R ^ 2 mientras que su volumen con R ^ 3 donde R es el radio de una célula) y, por lo tanto, los intercambios a lo largo de la membrana celular se ven favorecidos en comparación con las células más grandes que necesitan muchos intercambios pero tienen proporcionalmente menos área de membranas. Si bien A no es necesariamente cierto, C es definitivamente cierto y, por lo tanto, la respuesta correcta.

frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

The higher temperature is the factor which is responsible for the process of denaturation of proteins in which the breaking down of hydrogen, disulphide bonds and destabilization occurs. This process breaks up the bond between the polypeptides.

The bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor comprises of 58 amino acids this consists of the disulphide bonds which are destroyed on heating as a result of this the inhibitor becomes inactive. But on cooling it comes to the original form as the internal structure starts making hydrogen and disulphide bonds again. Thus the activity of the BPTI again gets restored.
