Answer:

E. are found in nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria AND are used to protect nitrogenase.

Explanation:

Heterocysts are specialized cellular compartments found in nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria. They provide the ideal anaerobic environment for nitrogen fixation since nitrogenase enzyme cant work in presence of oxygen. Hence, in a cyanobacteria both the oxygen requiring photosynthesis process and the  oxygen sensitive nitrogen fixation process takes place simultaneously.

Heterocysts have an additional cell wall made of glycolipid that provides a hydrophobic barrier to oxygen. They are involved in production of nitrogenase and other proteins that are required for nitrogen fixation. They also degrade photosystem II which is responsible for producing oxygen and produce proteins which remove any remaining oxygen.

How can I remember the definition of Transcription Initiation Complex? Read below for the definition. I need help memorizing it.
MrRissso [65]
Memorize it one word at a time. For example, memorize "the complex" then "the complex assemblage" then "the complex assemblage of transcription". Repeat each part until you have it memorized.  This is what helps me memorize definitions so I hope it helps.

Answer:

Bar and lexical.

Explanation:

Bar and lexical are the name of two different types of scales that are found on maps. Bar scales are used more frequently in the maps because they represent or show the distance ratio visually instead of in words, while on the other hand, lexical scales may be expressed in words, as a ratio, or as a fraction. Examples are 1:10,000 or 1/10,000. Using map scales is very important in the real world if you want to find out the distance you are traveling.
