stealth61 [152]3 years ago
4 0

The characteristics that separate plants from fungi include:

1. plants have chlorophyll and can produces their own food while fungi live off others and they cannot produce their own food.

2. Plants reproduce through seeds and pollen, fungi reproduce through spores.

3. Plants have root systems, stem and leaves whereas fungi only have filaments which attach to the host.

4. Plants are producers while fungi are decomposers.

5. The cell wall on plants are made of cellulose, while those of fungi are made of chitin.

Iron reacts with atmospheric oxygen to form iron oxide or ferric oxide. Look at the chemical equation for this reaction:
kondaur [170]

Answer:

4 Fe + 3 O₂ → 2 Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Let's start with the oxygen.

Reactants - 2

Products - 3

What number do 2 and 3 have in common? 6.

Put a 3 in the reactants and a 2 in the products to balance the oxygen.

Fe + 3 O₂ → 2 Fe₂O₃

Now let's look at the iron.

Reactants - 1

Products - 4

Put a 4 in the reactants to balance the iron.

4 Fe + 3 O₂ → 2 Fe₂O₃

The equation is balanced. Hope that helps.

by what factor would the rate of diffusion across a membrane change if both its area and thickness doubled
Paul [167]

Answer:

Size of particle.

Explanation:

Size of the particles that are diffusing is the factors that greatly affect the rate of diffusion. The rate of diffusion decreases if the thickness of the membrane becomes doubled while on the other hand, if the surface area of the membrane increases it doubled the rate of diffusion of the cell. If the size of particles is very small so it will diffuse if the membrane has double thickness.

E. coli DNA polymerase III is both highly accurate and highly processive. a) Describe how Pol III avoids the incorporation of im
kogti [31]

Answer/Explanation:

DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for replicating DNA. It is hugely important that is performs its functions accurately, as if incorrect bases are incorporated this can lead to mutations that disrupt the structure and function of genes. It adds nucleotides in a 5' - 3' direction only.

DNA polymerase III also has high processivity, which means that for every time it binds DNA, it is able to add many bases before it becomes dissociated.

A. DNA polymerase avoids the incorporation of improperly paired nucleotides in two ways:

  • The first way depends on the structure of the enzyme. If the nucleotide that the enzyme is in the process of adding is not complementary to the template, then the nucleotide will not align with the template, and thus it is more inefficient to add. This inefficiency means the nucleotide is more likely to leave the active site before it is added, and DNA polymerase can replace it with the correct nucleotide.
  • It also has proofreading capabilities. This means, when an incorrect base is added, it recognises the error and can fix this. It can do this because it possesses 3'-5' exonuclease activity. That means, it can chop out incorrectly added bases.

B. Ribonucleotides are the nucleotides that are incorporated into a growing RNA molecule. They are different from deoxyribonucleotides because of the differences in the sugar backbone (ribose vs deoxyribose). Their incorporation would disrupt the structure and function of the DNA, leading to problems with transcription and replication.

DNA polymerase avoids incorporating these nucleotides primarily because of the structure of the enzyme. Ribonucleotides cannot fit into the active site of DNA polymerase due to what is called a "steric filter" or "steric gate". This gate/filter function is performed by specific amino acid residues which usually have a bulky side chain and thus block the incorporation of the 2'OH of the ribose sugar (which is lacking in the deoxyribose sugar)
