Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Helicase,  topoisomerase ii /gyrase, single strand binding proteins.</h2>

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process in which DNA is replicated with the help of various enzymes and proteins..

Helicase is the enzyme which unwind the DNA strands, After unwinding, topoisomerase removes these twists. Single strand binding proteins  stabilize the single strands of DNA during replication.

In this week's experiments, if you replaced glucose with the monosaccharide fructose, predict the results for fructose transport
lbvjy [14]

Answer: Fructose is transported by facilitated diffusion.

Explanation:

Glucose is a monosaccharide with the molecular formula C6H12O6.3 It is a hexose. It is a form of sugar that is found freely in fruits and in honey. Its energy yield is 3.75 Kcal/g under standard conditions.

Fructose is a type of carbohydrate found in vegetables, fruits, and honey. It is a monosaccharide with the same molecular formula as glucose, C6H12O6, but with a different structure, that is, it is an isomer of glucose. Its energetic power is the same as that of glucose, 4 kilocalories per gram, and it is a reducing carbohydrate.

Glucose is the main energy substance of a cell and for its entry  it requires a transport protein in the cell membrane, called transporter. The transport of glucose through the cell membrane is carried out by two families of membrane proteins:

  • Sodium-coupled glucose transporters (SGLT sodium-glucose-transporters), which involves the co-transport of Na+ by the SGLT-1 by maintaining the Na+ gradient thanks to the Na+/K+ pump
  • Glucose transport facilitation proteins (GLUT)

On the other hand,  fructose is absorbed by another type of transporter, called Glut-5, a protein that crosses the membrane 12 times. Finally, the passage of both glucose and fructose into the blood takes place through the Glut-2, a transporter with low affinity and high transport capacity.

If any Glut is considered within the context of a large family of proteins, it can be immediately noticed that they all possess common characteristics that in biochemical terms are called "molecular signature of glucose transporters" and that it is no more than a set of extremely conserved primary amino acidic sequences that determine secondary and tertiary structures (domains or motifs) that are responsible for the functional characteristics of the protein.

<u>Facilitated diffusion is a type of cellular transport where the presence of a carrier or transporter (integral protein, Glut is this example</u>)<u> is necessary for substances to cross the membrane.</u> It happens because the molecules are larger or insoluble in lipids and need to be transported with the help of membrane proteins. So, in the first step, fructose binds to the transport protein, and this changes shape, allowing the passage of this sugar. In this way, fructose concentrations inside the cell are always very low, and the external and internal concentration gradient favours diffusion.

Summarizing, fructose is transported by facilitated diffusion. So if we replaced glucose with fructose we would have seen no change in each conditions. And since fructose is transported by this type of mechanism, there is not a concentration gradient.

A school nurse is assessing children in the third grade for pediculosis capitis. what assessments should be made?
GarryVolchara [31]
Pediculosis capitis, also known as hair lice, is one of the most common of ectoparasitic infections. This is highly contagious, especially in schools, day care centers, or areas wherein children are in close contact with infected children. In this case, the nurse should examine the heads of the children for small lice or nits on the hair shafts.

There is a multitude of evidence that supports how life has changed over time due to variation in the gene pool of different spe
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: A. Environmental drivers plus genetic variation in the population result in natural selection

Explanation: over geological time environmental conditions change. Organisms do not survive in one environmental niche with traits adapted to a possible future change that might suit those traits. Adaptation is not a matter of choice: adapt if possible or go extinct.

There is a (badly named) concept called pre-adaptation, which is that variations in some existing trait render adaptation to a different environment more likely.
