What it mean for something to be hypertonic?

Biology
1 answer:
Nady [450]4 years ago
4 0
Hypertonic is where the solution has a lower water potential than the other side of the membrane. It has less water molecules and osmosis may occur under that in the presence of semi permeable membrane. Where water will flow from a higher water potential to lower water potential region

When a colloid such as gelatin forms, which molecule does the process of protein coagulation entrap?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Water

Explanation:

When a colloid such as a gelatin forms, water is entrapped by the process of protein coagulation.

Colloids can be describes as particles of solid having spherical diameter between 1 and 100 nm which are dispersed in the liquid medium. Coagulation can be described as a process in which particles aggregate and lead to the formation of flocs. Flocs can either settle in water or can easily be seperated from water.

In this metabolic process, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds RNA nucleotides (the substrates) together by catalyzing the formation
stira [4]

Answer:

TRANSCRIPTION

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process that occurs in the expression of a gene. It involves the synthesis of a mRNA molecule from a DNA template. The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of an eukaryotic cell, is bound to by an enzyme called RNA polymerase in order to synthesize an mRNA molecule/strand.

RNA polymerase synthesizes a mRNA molecule using complementary base pairing rule i.e. Uracil base (U) is synthesized when Adenine (A) is read, Adenine when Thymine (T) is read, Guanine (G) when cytosine (C) is read, Cytosine when guanine is read. These nucleotide bases are then joined together via chemical bonding.

In a nutshell, RNA polymerase catalyzes the formation of a bond between the backbone sugar of one nucleotide base to the backbone phosphate of another nucleotide base in the metabolic process of TRANSCRIPTION.
