Samples as small as a few skin cells can potentially contain DNA. T/F

Biology
1 answer:
Travka [436]3 years ago
8 0

<u>Answer</u>: True

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material present inside the nucleus of all eukaryotic cells.
  • Samples as small as few skin cells also contain DNA and the presence of DNA in skin cells is often used to identify the DNA of a person in a crime scene.
  • Further, with the use of PCR technology, the small amount of DNA obtained from skin cells can be amplified into many copies.
  • Therefore, the given statement is true.

A scientist observes that, when the pH of the environment surrounding an enzyme is changed, the rate the enzyme catalyzes a reac
vredina [299]

Answer:

A- A pH change can cause the enzyme to change its shape

Explanation:

A rise or fall in the pH of the medium from the optimum of pH 7 usually affect  the  enzymes' active sites  of  and therefore the  shape and  the  rate of enzyme activity.

Assuming  the pH is too low, the enzyme medium becomes acidic;Acidosis. The high Hydrogen ions concentration  interacts with the R-groups of the amino acids moiety of the enzymes, this interaction affects the ionization of the  R-groups, disrupting the ionic bonding holding these R-groups in shape.

This results in loss of the 3-Dimensional shape arrangements of the protein molecule  and therefore of the active sites. Since active sites of  enzymes  determines the specificity of the <u>enzymes substrate- complex </u> to give <u>enzyme-product complex,</u> the catalytic activity of the enzymes decreases, <u>the rate of  reaction decreases,and products formation stops, and the reaction also stops.</u>

The same is applicable to extremely high pH=Alkalosis.

However, the effective buffer system of the body prevents this scenarios from happening in real sense in the body. Through mopping by the  haemoglobin, excretion by the kidney, etc

The Steady State Theory state that the density of the universe was remaining constant.

<h3>Steady State Theory:</h3>

In cosmology, a steady-state theory is a perspective that holds that the universe is constantly expanding while maintaining a constant average density. According to this theory, the matter is continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate that older ones fade away due to their expanding distance and accelerating recession. The average density and configuration of galaxies are the same as any location in a steady-state universe, which has no beginning or end in time.

British scientists Sir Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, and Sir Fred Hoyle first proposed the hypothesis in 1948. Hoyle expanded on it in order to address issues that had come up in relation to the alternative big-bang theory. According to the hypothesis, in order to maintain a constant average density of matter across time, the new matter must constantly be created, primarily as hydrogen. With nearly five times as much dark matter, the amount needed is small and not immediately observable: one solar mass of baryons per cubic megaparsec every year, or one hydrogen atom per cubic meter every billion years.
