RUDIKE [14]2 years ago
5 0
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are 20 of them in existence. For this item, we are to identify the number of different proteins that can be formed. 

In the first position in the sequence, we can have 20 amino acids. Then, because one of which was already used for the first position, 19 amino acids can still be written in the second place. This goes on, and the number of proteins can be calculated as follow,
   number of proteins = 20 x 19 x 18 x 17 x 16 x 15
   number of proteins = 27,907,200

<em>ANSWER: 27, 907, 200 proteins</em>

Choose the true statement(s) that support(s) the endosymbiotic theory. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true stat
horsena [70]

Answer:

a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.

c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.

d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.

Explanation:

Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.

The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.

Alika [10]

Answer:

Jacob and Monod were intellectually primed to draw the conclusions they did concerning regulation of the lac operon. In part, this was due to their fascination with mechanisms of enzyme regulation. They knew that the activity of some enzymes is regulated when their reaction product binds to the enzyme, changing its shape and therefore its activity. This knowledge allowed them to easily make the intellectual leap to propose B) allosteric regulation of the repressor

Explanation:

When we talk about the mechanisms of enzyme regulation, we refer to allosteric regulation of the repressor. The Allosteric control of transcriptional regulatory proteins allows organisms to react to changes in environmental and metabolic conditions. Also, it is s a thermodynamic phenomenon. When it binds one molecule, the affinity with which a protein binds to a second molecule is altered.
