Answer:a. humans and chimpanzees share a relatively recent common ancestor.

Explanation:

Humans and chimpanzees are not evolved from one another, but both have a common ancestors. Humans share a common ape ancestor with chimpanzees who is expected to live 6-8 million years ago. The humans and chimpanzees have been evolved differently from this ancestor.

HELP!!!! Restriction maps illustrate the lengths of DNA fragments between restriction sites. Which of the following information
balandron [24]
The wording of this is confusing. I think it’s A and B and I’m hesitant say that it’s also C but only if you know the mutation and the gene.

Also for A you would only know a partial sequence of the gene.

Which enzyme(s) involved in fatty acid synthesis utilize ATP? Select all that apply.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a. Acetyl CoA carboxylase  

Explanation:

Much of the fatty acids used by the body is supplied by the diet, excessive amounts of carbohydrates and protein obtained from the diet can be converted to fatty acids and stored as triglycerides. Fatty acid synthesis occurs mainly in the liver and mammary glands, and to a lesser extent in adipose tissue and kidney, the process incorporates acetyl CoA carbons into the forming fatty acid chain using ATP and NADPH.

The acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is transported to cytosol as citrate, produced by condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, the first reaction of the citric acid cycle, this occurs when the concentration of mitochondrial citrate is high, observed when there is a high concentration of ATP and isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited.  The increase of citrate and ATP favors the synthesis of fatty acids, since this pathway needs both. Acetyl CoA should be converted to malonyl CoA. Carboxylation is catalyzed by acetyl CoA carboxylase and requires ATP, this reaction is the regulated step in fatty acid synthesis: it is inactivated by products, malonyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, and activated by citrate, another regulatory mechanism is reversible phosphorylation of enzyme, which makes it inactive due to the presence of adrenaline / glucagon

When a phosphate bond is hydrolyzed, energy is released. the remaining adp is at a higher or lower energy state?
Eduardwww [97]
Answer:
The remaining ADP is at lower energy state.

Explanation:
ATP contain three phisphate bond. These phosphate groups form phosphodiester bond. Hydrolysis of each phosphate bond release about 7.3 Kcal of energy and one ADP. Now this ADP contain only one bond between phosphate group.

Result:
It is clered from the discussion that ADP is at lower energy level as compared to ATP due to less bond between phosphate group.

Suppose there is a protein "A" which binds to a DNA sequence and increases transcription of the gene CBC23. In the presence of m
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

A = Activator

B = Effector

Explanation:

An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also  known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.

But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.
