In order to have its n-terminus extending into the cytoplasm, the cftr protein must have contained a NBD as the first signal peptide encountered in the primary sequence.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Cystic Fibrosis Trans-membrane conductance regulator (CFTR) exhibits the two domain swap structure and is a protein found in the pancreas, intestinal and respiratory epithelia. The N-terminal signal functions as a first signal peptide.

CFTRs helps in up taking nutrients in prokaryotes and export variety of substrates in the eukaryotes. This NBD nucleotide binding domain acts as the first signal peptide to be encountered in the primary sequence.

The correct answer is the internal start transfer sequence as this will be the first signal that would be encountered in regards of the primary sequence that will allow the N-terminus to extend up until the cytoplasm in which this is what the CFTR protein contains.

What type of molecule speeds up chemical reactions in living things?
iren [92.7K]

The best answer is  B - Proteins.

Proteins make up enzymes, or to put it another way enzymes are made up of protein. It is enzymes that speed up the chemical reactions. Enzymes are organic catalysts, substances that speed up a (biochemical) reaction but do not take part in the reaction and remain unchanged at the end of the reaction.

In man, there are many enzymes. The majority of these are found in the digestive system where they greatly aid the process of food breakdown from complex molecules to simple molecules. Examples include salivary amylase found in saliva,  which begins the gradual breaking down of starch into glucose right from the moment food is placed in the mouth and mixed with saliva. Pepsin in the stomach breaks down protein.

Think about a carbon atom that is released into the atmosphere from burning wood in a campfire. If it were to go through the who
Anna35 [415]

The correct order would be:

1. A tree absorbs the carbon from the atmosphere into its leaves for photosynthesis;

2. A caterpillar gets the carbon by eating the tree's leaves.

3. A bird gets the carbon by eating the caterpillar.

4. The bird flies into a building and dies instantly. It falls to the ground.

5. The bird decomposes and the carbon returns to the atmosphere.

The carbon cycle is very similar to the water cycle, though it has its own unique ways. Once the carbon is released into the atmosphere, it will either be absorbed by the vegetation, or go up into the higher parts of the atmosphere. If it is absorbed by the vegetation, the organisms that eat the vegetation will get it in them. When the predators eat those organism they get the carbon into their organisms. When the predators die, they start to decompose. When they decompose, the carbon is released from them and it returns to the atmosphere, and the whole process goes all over again.
