How come eukaryotic cells are more efficient than a prokaryotic cell despite being larger?

1 answer:

4 0

Because of the production of ATP. Eukaryotic cells produce (I believe) 38 per molecule of glucose and prokaryotes produce 2 ATP per glucose.

Viral DNA makes mRNA by the process of _____. Viral DNA makes mRNA by the process of _____. replication infection translation ly

Pachacha [2.7K]

<h2>The correct answer is: Transcription.</h2>

Explanation:

Viruses do not possess any machinery necessary for the purpose of their reproduction.
They only possess their genetic material enclosed within a capsid structure.
The capsid is constituted of glycoproteins.
They completely depend upon the components and organelles of the host cells whom they infect to help them carry out their reproduction process.
After infecting a host cell, the viruses hijack all the machinery and components of the host cell and use them for the purpose of transcribing their genetic material (DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid) to produce the virus-specific mRNAs (messenger Ribonucleic Acid).
These mRNAs are further translated into virus-specific proteins using the host-specific Ribosomes. These virus-specific proteins are required for replicating the viral genetic material and producing the capsid structure.
The virus-specific proteins and glycoproteins are synthesized by utilizing the raw materials from the host cells.
Transcription is the process by which an enzyme called RNA polymerase or DNA dependent RNA polymerase copies the protein coding region of the DNA (gene) in the form of an RNA sequence (mRNA).
The synthesis of the mRNA happens in the 5' to 3' direction. This mRNA is further recognized and converted into the amino acid sequence with the help of the Ribosome.
The amino acid sequence folds to give rise to the protein.

Incorporation of _____, a neutral antibiotic, into a polyvinyl chloride membrane allows for the manufacture of an ion-selective

Alja [10]

The incorporation of valinomycin, a neutral antibiotic, into a polyvinyl chloride membrane allows for the manufacture of an ion-selective electrode that is highly selective for potassium.

<h3>How Valinomycin Ionophores Enter and Transport K+ across Model Lipid Bilayer Membranes?</h3>

A biomimetic lipid membrane attached to the surface of the gold electrode contained the cyclic peptide valinomycin.
The ionophore characteristics of the peptide were investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and the conformation and orientation of the antibiotic valinomycin within the membrane were identified using polarization modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy.
By forming a complex with potassium ions and an ion pair with a counter anion, valinomycin transports ions across the membrane, and the combination of these two techniques revealed novel information about the ionophore mechanism.
The ion pair is located inside the hydrophobic portion of the membrane and makes a little angle of around 22° with the surface normal.
