a biologist wants to classify protein secretion into groups based on the principal function of the protein. which cell works the
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The biologist should have a look at the structure of the protein. Since all functions are largely dependent on the structure of the protein (another way to look at it would be that proteins are specialized to carry out their functions because of how they are structured), this is determined by the amino acid sequence of the protein. And the sequence of amino acids is given by the DNA sequence, so that is what the biologist should look at.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Elodia [21]

Answer:

According to the given question that without prior knowledge on the prodigiosin synthesis pathway of these Serratia species, and we experience two different color morphs of the species. So, there is given or known preliminary morphological basis we will consider them different two different colonies. These can be identify only after genetically identify or study.

The morphological characterstics of the organism and the genetic identification both are equally important. So Giving any one more importance over other is not logical.

Morphologically we can differentiate the color of the colonies of mutants. The mutant serratia sp. are  known for eficient biosynthesis of prodigiosin, Thus on the basis of color characteristics of their colonies when grown on peptone glycerol medium we can identify.
