Mariana’s teacher has asked her to determine the type of a sample of blood. After doing some tests, she has learned that the red

blood cell of the sample has no antigens on it and that the plasma contains both A and B antibodies. What is the type of the blood sample?

Ans. 'O' blood group.

Blood groups are classified on the basis of presence or absence of antigens and antibodies present in surface of RBCs (red blood cells). The blood type, which lacks both A and B antigens, but has both anti-A and anti-B antibodies represents 'O' blood group.

As sample red blood cell has no antigens, but contain antibodies A and B, the type of the blood sample is 'O.'

Having no antigens is type O blood, which is what makes it a universal donor (It doesn't react violently with other blood types)

Plz help ASAP!<br><br><br> Which phrase best describes the dependent variable in an experiment?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The value that depends on another.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in an experiment, and is 'dependent' on the independent variable. An example of a dependent variable is depression symptoms, which depends on the independent variable (type of therapy).

Calculate the number of amino acids encoded by a DNA sequence of 36 nucleotides
ipn [44]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

Hi there,

Assuming this DNA strand is fully capable of being mature mRNA (5' m7G cap and PolyA tail), nucleotides lead to an mRNA codon, which is 3 nucleotides per codon. In turn, 1 codon leads to 1 amino acid. However, as a single strand, it must be capable of terminating translation, which always requires a stop codon, and thus 3 nucleotides. Hence, we must subtract this from the total amount of codons first.

Hence, only 11 amino acids will be coded by a single DNA strand 36 ncltd long.

thanks,

What is the structure of a protein molecule?
Olenka [21]

Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in a protein molecule. Proteins are polymers — specifically polypeptides — formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue (chemistry) indicating a repeating unit of a polymer. Proteins form by amino acids undergoing condensation reactions, in which the amino acids lose one water molecule per reaction in order to attach to one another with a peptide bond. By convention, a chain under 30 amino acids is often identified as a peptide, rather than a protein.[1] To be able to perform their biological function, proteins fold into one or more specific spatial conformations driven by a number of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic packing. To understand the functions of proteins at a molecular level, it is often necessary to determine their three-dimensional structure. This is the topic of the scientific field of structural biology, which employs techniques such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and dual polarisation interferometry to determine the structure of proteins.

Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.[2] By physical size, proteins are classified as nanoparticles, between 1–100 nm. Very large aggregates can be formed from protein subunits. For example, many thousands of actin molecules assemble into a microfilament.

A protein may undergo reversible structural changes in performing its biological function. The alternative structures of the same protein are referred to as different conformational isomers, or simply, conformations, and transitions between them are called conformational changes.
