How is gene regulation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes similar how is it different?

Triss [41]3 years ago

Prokaryotes are unicellular (single-celled) organisms and on the other hand Eukaryotes are multicellular organisms and more developed in organ and structure compared to prokaryotes. Gene regulation is key to both organisms as it determines growth and development and other process and activities performed by the organism. However, the two organisms differ in the way they regulate their genes. Prokaryotes cells lack nucleus while the eukaryotic cells have a well defined nucleus. In Prokaryotes RNA transcription and protein formation occur almost simultaneously while in the Eukaryotes RNA transcription occur before the protein formation in the nucleus and then protein formation occurs in the cytoplasm. In addition both organisms uses the same processes in gene regulation  and only differ in the manner the processes are undertaken. Lastly, gene expression in prokaryotes is regulated at transcriptional level whereas in eukaryotes regulation is at many levels.

Provide an example of how cells balance the redox potential between different cellular components?
crimeas [40]

En la respiración celular, la célula depende totalmente de las reacciones Redox, para ser precisos de la reducción del NAD a NADH y la oxidación de NADH a NAD.

Ahora veamos una situación diferente.

En la fotosíntesis, ocurre la reacción inversa de redox, como se muestra en la siguiente ecuación:

6CO2 + 6H2O + E --> C6H12O6 + 6O2

La energía biológica se almacena y se lanza con la frecuencia por medio de reacciones redox. La fotosíntesis implica la reducción del CO2 en azucares y la oxidación del H2O en oxigeno molecular (O2), mientras que en la respiración es lo inverso, la oxidación de azucares a CO2 y H2O.

Entre los pasos redox de la fotosíntesis, compuestos deducidos del CO2 reducen el NAD lo que crea entonces, la creación gradiente de protones, que conduce a la síntesis del ATP y es mantenida por la oxidación del O2.

En los seres vivos, el término redox se utiliza para describir el equilibrio NAD-NADH y NADP-NADPH.

El estado redox contribuye al equilibrio de los sistemas metabólicos. En el caso de alteraciones en las reacciones redox, puede producirse HIPOXIA, que es el déficit del O2 en la sangre, CHOQUE, que es el mal circulamiento de lal sangre y la SEPSIS.

Reptiles are better suited to dry land than their amphibian ancestors because
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

<u><em>All of the above.</em></u>

Explanation:

1. Their watertight skin minimizes moistures loss: <em>Reptiles have a reputation that they are “slimy” when we touch and hold them; however, they have dry skin, which has even fewer glands than mammals or amphibians. The main special feature of their skin is that the epidermis is heavily keratinized with a layer, which also prevents water loss.</em>

2. Amphibians must lay eggs in water or in moist soil to reduce moisture loss: <em>Because amphibian eggs don't have an amnion, the eggs would dry out if they were laid on the land, so amphibians lay their eggs in water.</em>

3. Reptile egg shells are harder than amphibians' eggs: <em>Reptile eggs are coated with a leathery or brittle coating, and the animals that hatch from them are miniature versions of the full-sized animal parent. In contrast, amphibian eggs are transparent and jelly-like. The animals that hatch from them still must go through metamorphosis.</em>

<u><em>Hope this helps you have a better understanding:) !!</em></u>
