How many molecules of water are released during the polymerization of a 20 monomer long cellulose molecule

Biology
2 answers:
Karolina [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 19 water molecules

Explanation:

Polymerization can be defined as the process by which monomers gets attached to one another to form a polymer. Example: ethene polymerize to form polyethylene.

Polymerization of 20 monomers of cellulose molecules releases 19 molecules of water.

Polymer bond is formed when -OH  group from the first monomers is attached to the H molecules of the second monomers.

For, 20 monomers there will be 19 water molecules released.

Compare the two processes: mitosis and meiosis. Can you identify the the true statements about the two? Meiosis results in four
Alborosie

Answer:

The correct statements are:

  • Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells.  
  • During meiosis, the 2N mother cells produce N daughter cells.  
  • In both processes, DNA replication must occur.  
  • Mitosis is responsible for genetic continuity; in higher organisms, it is essential for growth and repair.  

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell is divided into two identical daughter cells. Each daughter cell contains identical genetic material as that of the parent cell.  

It plays important role in growth and repair of cells and tissues in multi-cellular organisms.

Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell is divided to produce four daughter cells. Each daughter cell contains exactly half the genetic material (chromosomes) as that of parent cells

It plays important role in the production of gametes (eggs and sperms) in sexually reproducing organisms.

Before either cell division, the DNA is replicated in the S or synthesis phase of the cell cycle.

As an aspiring undergraduate researcher, you want to identify the gene responsible for bacterial virulence of your favorite path
Marianna [84]

Answer:

When directed mutagenesis which is also called reverse genetics is used, only a single mutation per genome is introduced. In contrast, the number of mutations per genome introduced by random mutagenesis is usually difficult to control. It is likely that the strain you obtained with a mutation in gene X after random mutagenesis contained an additional mutation or perhaps multiple mutations which ultimately was/were responsible for loss of virulence in your favorite pathogen.

When the body senses a state of hypoperfusion, the sympathetic nervous system releases epinephrine, the effects of which?
lutik1710 [3]
Heart rate is controlled by the two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) releases the hormones (catecholamines - epinephrine and norepinephrine) to accelerate the heart rate. The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) releases the hormone acetylcholine to slow the heart rate. Such factors as stress, caffeine, and excitement may temporarily accelerate your heart rate, while meditating or taking slow, deep breaths may help to slow your heart rate.
