They play huge role in organisms, every living organism needs proteins.
- enzymatic role ( they build enzymes which lower an activation energy in reactions and increase reaction speed)
- hormonal role (they build hormons)
- structural role (for example keratin)
- transport role ( for example hemoglobin)
- energetic role ( for example aleurone grains in plant cells or they are used to gain energy in human organism when it's out of lipids and carbohydrates)

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>a.  1000 X 2^8</h2>

Explanation:

As given;

Initial population of bacteria= 1000;

Log phase growth is exponential phase, period in which bacteria gets double.

Generation time= 15 minutes;

it means, bacteria get double in every 15 minute,

so after 2 hours, bacteria will have 8 generation times;

so the final generation of bacteria is =1000 X 2^8.

Final bacterial generation after two hours = 256,000(1000 X 2^8)

What is the similarity between excretory systems of insects, earthworms and vertebrates?
4vir4ik [10]

Los seres invertebrados y los vertebrados tienen más elementos en común de lo que se pensaba. Un estudio, con participación del Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), prueba que existe gran similitud entre los sistemas excretores de ambos grupos de animales. Según la investigación, las células encargadas de filtrar la sangre en la formación de orina, alojadas en los riñones de vertebrados, son similares a las que realizan una función análoga en invertebrados.

artcher [175]

Answer: what is Acetyl CoA is made from pyruvate under aerobic conditions in the mitochondria. The process of conversion is irreversible. I don't know the other half I'm sorry.

Explanation:

Acetyl CoA Used by the citric acid cycle as a fuel. Carbon acetyl groups are converted to CO2 and ATP and electrons (carried by NADH and FADH2) create even MORE electrons.  Acetyl CoA is made from pyruvate under aerobic conditions in the mitochondria. The Process of conversion is irreversible.

xenn [34]

Answer:

Lactic Acid Fermentation, which <em>produces the ATP molecule that animals and bacteria need for energy.</em> Lactic acid fermentation occurs when the ATP molecule is created without oxygen.

Alcohol/Ethanol Fermentation, which <em>causes certain sugars to be converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide</em> by bacteria on carbohydrate products/materials.
