Lipase is an Enzyme protein that helps. break down fats in foods
The pigments have a similar
structure of 40 carbon atoms covalently bonded in a chain. Carotenoids contain oxygen atoms in their chemical structure (retinyl functional group) while
xanthophyll does not. This makes carotenoids more non-polar compared to xanthophylls,
hence move farthest in chromatography
paper using a nonpolar mobile phase. Chlorophyll
pigment, on the other hand, has chlorin rings (which are larger) as functional
units hence move slowly in chromatography.
Photosynthetic rates
can be measured by either the amount of
oxygen they consume per particular time period
or the amount of carbon dioxide produced per particular time period. This
is conducted while immersed in water so
as to measure bubble rate formation in case of oxygen production or the change
in water pH in the case of carbon dioxide consumption.
When autumn approaches, the amount
sunlight received by the plant is reduced due to longer night than days. Deciduous trees have adapted by losing
chlorophyll a and b pigments (most important in photosynthesis)
during this time. This leaves a higher amount of the other red and yellow pigments hence making the leaves change from
green to yellow-red.
It is believed that this
is the result of an ancient endosymbiotic
relationship between a protist and a
eukaryotic cell. The protist generates energy
that the eukaryotic can utilize in its growth and reproduction while
the protist is sheltered. This relationship became obligatory symbiosis over
time.
Answer:
A. Repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"
B. Repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"
C. Repeats of Aspartic acid
Explanation:
A. The synthetic RNA with GC repeats would have repeats to two codons: GCG and CGC which in turn code for alanine and arginine amino acids respectively. Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"
RNA: GCG CGC GCG CGC GCG CGC
Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine
...
B. The synthetic RNA with UA repeats would have repeats to two codons: UAU and AUA which in turn code for tyrosine and Isoleucine amino acids respectively. Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"
RNA: UAU AUA UAU AUA UAU AUA
Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine
C. The synthetic RNA with GAC repeats would code for polypeptide of aspartic acid only as GAC codes for aspartic acid.
RNA: GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC
