Describe the differences between lecithin and cephalin.

Biology
1 answer:
castortr0y [4]3 years ago
5 0
Lecithin is (organic chemistry) the principal phospholipid in animals; it is particularly abundant in egg yolks, and is extracted commercially from soy. It is also a major constituent of cell membranes, and is commonly used as a food additive (as an emulsifier). While cephalin is (biochemistry) a phospholipid found particularly in the cells of nervous tissue; it is also the primary phospholipid in bacteria.

Saturated fatty acids are degraded by the stepwise reactions of beta-oxidation, producing acetyl-CoA. Under aerobic conditions,
Tanya [424]

Answer:

4 ATP molecules

Explanation:

Normally, about 11 ATP molecules are generated as the result of Beta-Oxidation of saturated fatty acid in Kreb's Cycle. But the total removal of acetyl-CoA under certain aerobic condition decreases the overall yield and approximately 4 ATP molecules comes out from each removal of acetyl-CoA.

Can someone pls help me ​
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Since both the parents are carriers, they have one allele that is the gene for the normal trait and one gene that is for the sickle cell trait. So the genotypes of the parents are Hh

b.   If we use a punnett square:

                    H            h

         H       HH           Hh

         h        Hh           hh

Genotypic ratio: 1 HH: 2Hh: 1hh

Phenotypic ratio:      1 normal blood cell: 2 sickle cell carriers: 1 sickle cell disease

What would happen to the possible variation in gametes if the number if chromosome pairs increased from two to three?
Orlov [11]
<span>If each of the pairs of chromosomes was heterozygous (what gives you the highest potential number of different gametes), then the number of possible gametes increases from 4 to 8 for a diploid organism. To figure out how many are possible, raise the number of homologous chromsomes (2 for a diploid organism) to the power of the number of chromosomes. So if you have two different chromosomes (A and B), raise 2 to the 2nd power (or multiply 2 x 2) and you have 4. If you have chromosomes A, B, and C, then you have 2^3, or 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

To show possible combinations, AaBb gives you AB, Ab, aB, or ab. AaBbCc gives possible gametes of ABC, ABc, AbC, Abc, aBC, aBc, abC, and abc. </span>
