Explain how the fluid mosaic model accounts for the observed properties of cellular membranes

Biology
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
6 0

 The mosaic nature is due to the numerous proteins that are entrenched in the phospholipids bilayer, fluctuate in shape, size and patterns in the same way as the stones or tiles of a mosaic. 


the flexibility is due to individual phospholipids molecules which can move virtual to one another and gives the membrane a flexible structure that is constantly changing shape

hope it helps

What is the new peptide chain when the new dna segment is translated for 3'- TACAGGGTGCTACCCACT-5'
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- stop

Explanation:

Translation, which occurs in the ribosomes, is the second stage of protein synthesis where mRNA transcript is used to synthesize a peptide chain that eventually forms a protein. The mRNA sequence is read in a group of three nucleotide called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid, which is read and added to the growing peptide chain.

In this question, a DNA sequence reds 3'- TACAGGGTGCTACCCACT-5, the

mRNA sequence from this DNA during transcription will be:

AUG UCC CAC GAU GGG UGA

From this mRNA sequence, the peptide chain that will result following translation is:

Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- stop
