Answer:
Since all forms of bacteria are prokaryotic and in turn unicellular their offspring don’t have to undergo a long period of gestation and growth prior to relative maturity. Whereas any organism (for the most part) in the animila kingdom do and any animal also require a mate. So one major benefit of bacteria being capable of asexual reproduction is they don’t require a mate to reproduce hence the name ASEXUAL. Also, another benefit I vaguely/briefly mentioned is the ability to reproduce at a faster rate than many if not all eukaryotic organisms. For example E.coli a type of bacteria can reproduce in as little as 20 minutes if I recall correctly.
Answer:
Enzyme- Peptidase/protease
Explanation:
According to this question, a student is conducting an experiment to determine the roles of molecules in metabolic processes such as digestion. Based on what she found out that the molecule, which itself can be broken down into amino acids, can also break down proteins into amino acids, this suggests that the molecule being described is a PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME.
This is because an enzyme is made up of proteins which can be denatured or broken down into its simplest unit (amino acids) and also, a substance that breaks down amino acid is said to be PROTEOLYTIC.
However, another observation that the molecule is found in high concentrations in the small intestine was made, hence, the enzyme is a PEPTIDASE OR PROTEASE, which are secreted into the small intestine by the pancreas to aid digestion of proteins.
Answer: Promoter
Explanation:
Transcription is the first step in gene expression which consists of copying the DNA sequence of a gene to produce a RNA molecule. There are enzymes called <u>RNA polymerases which perform this process of transcription</u>. These enzymes bind nucleotides (the monomers which are part of the nucleic acids) to create a RNA strand using a DNA strand as a mold.
A promoter is a region of DNA that controls the initiation of transcription of a given portion of DNA to RNA. Therefore they promote the transcription of a gene. <u>The promoter region is composed of a specific sequence of DNA located just where the starting point of the DNA transcription is</u> and contains the information needed to activate or deactivate the gene it regulates. <u>The promoter has a binding site for the RNA polymerase enzyme </u>in charge of mRNA synthesis and when it recognizes this site, transcription begins.
Answer:The constituents of a solid can be arranged in two general ways: they can form a regular repeating three-dimensional structure called a crystal lattice, thus producing a crystalline solid, or they can aggregate with no particular order, in which case they form an amorphous solid (from the Greek ámorphos, meaning
Explanation:
Biofuel, which is chemical energy taken from biodegraded material.
