Amino acids

Remember that the structure of amino acids have an amino group (NH₃--Cα)

Explanation:

Plants will absorb the radioactive nitrogen compounds as ammonium (NH4+)  nitrates (NO3-)and nitrites (NO2-). The radioactive Nitrogen will  found in amino acids because the absorbed nitrates, nitrites and ammonium undergo a process called assimilation. The  nitrates and nitrites are firstly reduced to ammonia. The ammonia is then assimilation is a pathway called glutamine synthetase-glutamate synthase (GS-GOGAT). IN this pathway the ammonia is incorporated into the amino group of glutamine using glutamine synthase enzyme. The process of transamination of the glutamine then creates many other amino acids.

Why is the aplysia such a popular animal for single-cell studies of learning?
Feliz [49]

<span>Aplysia is a marine gastropod mollusc which is an often used model organism in neuroscience, especially on the cellular biology of learning and memory. What makes them easy to work with are their giant neurons, which are one of the largest. Aplysia neurons are suitable for studies of how neurons and neural circuits control behaviours. Its defensive reflex has been studied because it is mediated by electrical synapses, which allow several neurons to fire synchronously.</span>
