Answer:
Pepsinogen is produced by chief cells and is activated by hydrochloric acid secreted by parietal cells.
Explanation:
Pepsinogen is a proenzyme produced in the chief cells (that are located in the stomach lining) that, when gets activated, is transformed into pepsin - a peptidase with the function to degrade proteins into amino acids.
The reason why pepsinogen is released inactive is that it would break down all of the cell's proteins because of its proteolytic nature. For this reason, it is released as a proenzyme and gets activated when reaches the acidic environment provided by the hydrochloric acid secreted by the parietal cells, also in the stomach lining.
Cancer cells can form in practically any area of the body, but the main feature that unites all cancer cells is that they divide and replicate without end, until large tumors form.
The answer is A. Apicomplexa.
A baker has created a new strain of yeast which contains no cytochrome c gene and no cytochrome c protein. this will affect what the yeast strain can do to obtain energy. what will this yeast strain do more of compared to a normal strain
Will this new strain of yeast obtain more or less free energy from glucose in its growing medium?
Answer: Less because cytochrome c is key to the electron transport chain.
Explanation:
The Cytochrome c is an essential component of the electron transport chain. Without this there will be no oxidation and reduction of iron atom will take place which could convert the ferrous ions to ferric ions. Thus the entire process of electron transport chain and energy production in the form of ATP will be compromised. So, there will be no production of energy in the anaerobic fermentation by yeast.
C. DNA codes for RNA which codes for proteins
