The word cell comes from the Latin cellula, meaning, a small room. The descriptive name for the smallest living biological structure was chosen by Robert Hooke in a book he published in 1665 when he compared the cork cells he saw through his microscope to the small rooms monks lived in.

Which of the following sequences is most likely to be cut by a restriction enzyme?

iVinArrow [24]

The sequence 5'TTATAA3' 3' AATATT 5' will be recognized by the Aan 1 enzyme and blunt ends can be produced.

Explanation:

In prokaryotes the restriction enzyme and restriction sites are seen. Restriction enzyme will either produce a sticky end as eco R1 or blunt end. The single strand of DNA will have overhangs which can combine with the other strand by complementary base pairing and ligase enzyme to get replicated.

The recognition sequence 5'TTATAA3' 3' AATATT 5' is present in AaRl enzyme. The cut will be blunt.

5' ---TTA TAA--- 3'

3' ---AAT ATT--- 5'

Restriction enzymes are used in recombinant DNA technology.

Compare and contrast catabolic and anabolic pathways

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

Comparison

Catabolism and anabolism are both biochemical reactions that are part of important process of metabolism.

Anabolic and catabolic pathways 'need each other,' that is, the energy that is produced from catabolism is utilized by anabolism.

Contrast

Anabolic reactions use simple molecules to build complex molecules, whereas the role of catabolism is to break the large molecules and transform them into smaller ones.

Example of Anabolism

Photosynthesis:

The reaction between CO2 and H2O to form glucose and oxygen.

Example of Catabolism

Digestion:

Breaking down of large molecules to produce energy.
