Which amino acids would most likely reside in the membrane-spanning domain of a membrane-embedded protein?

Biology
1 answer:
Margarita [4]3 years ago
4 0
The amino acids that would most likely reside  in the membrane spanning domain of a membrane embedded protein are LEUCINE, THERONINE AND LYSINE. This is because, these amino acids have hydrophobic side chains and one or more membrane spanning domains.
Membrane protein are usually made up of amino acids which have hydrophobic side chains that interact with the fatty acyl group of the membrane phospholipids, thereby anchoring the protein to the membrane.

Carriers of the sickle-cell allele (i.e. those with a heterozygous genotype) are fittest in environments with high frequencies o
Ostrovityanka [42]
Individuals who are heterozygous for the sickle-cell allele suffer less from the attack of malaria because a small percentage of the red blood cells are sickle-shaped. They are more resistant to malaria than individuals who have two copies of the normal haemoglobin allele. Heterozygous individuals have a better chance of surviving and reproducing in regions where malaria is prevalent since they do not fully contract the disease.

Compare the arrangement of muscles in earthworms to amphioxus
mafiozo [28]

Earthworms have two muscles which is used in locomotion. Both muscles are circular and longitudinal (inner layer of the series of muscles). The diameter of the earthworms body is reduced when the circular muscles are contracted which makes them appear to be thin. The worm appears short when the longitudinal muscles contract thus, its length is reduced.

 

Amphioxus on the other hand,  have two unique muscle fiber types. This includes  deep fibers and smaller but mitochondria-rich superficial fibers. E<span>ach of which has its own innervation.</span>

You inherited your mother's crooked nose and her recipe for chocolate chip cookies (both favorable traits). Which trait will be
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b.the recipe because it can be passed on to all relatives

Explanation:

A crooked nose is a genetic trait and can be passed to the progeny via genes only. Sexually reproducing organisms such as humans experience segregation of traits during gamete formation. Therefore, crooked nose inheritance is a chance factor regulated by the inheritance of genes and the segregation of alleles. On the other hand, a recipe for chocolate chip cookies can be shared with all the relatives and other individuals of the population by any means without any conditions. Therefore, a recipe will spread more quickly through the population.

A(n) _________ scan uses radioactive markers in the blood to monitor blood flow and metabolic activity via x-ray.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer;

-PET scan

A PET scan uses radioactive markers in the blood to monitor blood flow and metabolic activity via x-ray

Explanation;

-A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that helps reveal how the tissues and organs are functioning. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (tracer) to show this activity. This scan can sometimes detect disease before it shows up on other imaging tests.

-A PET scan is used to diagnose certain health conditions, to plan treatment, to find out how an existing condition is developing, and to see how effective a treatment is.

-In a PET scan, a machine detects radiation that is emitted by a radiotracer. A radiotracer consists of radioactive material that is tagged to a natural chemical, such as glucose.
