Which statement is true of crossing over?

Biology
1 answer:
Arada [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. It allows for genetic variation.

Explanation:

As prophase progresses, homologous chromosomes come to lie side by side and become intertwined rather like a zipper. This process is called synapsis. During synapsis, homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material between one another which allows for genetic variation. This exchange is called crossing over.

How are the products of protein hydrolysis by an aminopeptidase used in metabolism?
NNADVOKAT [17]
Aminopeptidases are enzymes that cleave polypeptides, or proteins,at the N terminus, or the amino end.  Protein hydrolysis is breaking down proteins into amino acids by adding water. Aminopeptidases are enzymes that cause protein hydrolysis. Once the protein is broken down into amino acids, the amino acids can be metabolized. Usually the body uses carbohydrates or lipids for metabolism, but in rare cases, such as starvation, proteins can be broken down and used for energy. 
Protein metabolism starts with the enzyme,pepsin, in the stomach and the smaller polypeptides travel to the small intestine where trypsin and chymotrypsin break them down into amino acids. Most of the newly available amino acids are combined to form new proteins. If the body has no need for proteins, they are converted to glucose or ketones and are decomposed. Breaking down amino acids results in nitrogen, which is converted to urine. In starvation, protein is broken down to amino acids and amino acids are broken down to oxaloacetate  acid, pyruvate  and acetyl coA and these intermediates are used in the Kreb cycle to produce ATP.

Explain how the system that creates proteins can be predicted and how these predictions can change.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

There is a basic observation that similar sequences from the same evolutionary family often adopt similar protein structures, which forms the foundation of homology modeling. So far it is the most accurate way to predict protein structure by taking its homologous structure in PDB as template.
