otez555 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: a molecule made of many small molecules

Explanation: Macromolecules are large molecules that are composed of smaller molecules called monomers. These macromolecules are polymers of the monomers units. Examples of macromolecules are proteins which have amino acids as their monomers and carbohydrates which have monosaccharide sugars such as glucose, and fructose as the monomers.

In any DNA molecule, the number of guanine bases will:______.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

In DNA molecule, the number of guanine bases will always be equal to the number of cytosine bases. Genuine make a triple hydrogen bond with cytosine. That's why the number of guanine bases is equal to cytosine bases.

The preferential use of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic leaflet of membranes leads to incre
spayn [35]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: The preferential use of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic leaflet of membranes leads to increased:___ would be, D: All of the answers are correct.

Explanation:

There is still a lot of debate among scientists as to the exact way in which phospholipids are distributed between the two leaflets of a cell´s plasma membrane, but what they do know is that there are four kinds, and that phosphatidylinositol (a sterol) and phosphatidylethanolamine appear most commonly on the cytosolic, or cytoplasmic side of the membrane. They also believe that it is this particular arrangement which allows the cytoplasmic side of the membrane to be slightly negatively charged and this role will play a major part in a membrane´s ability to generate an action potential. Also, it is known that these negatively charged ends of the bilayer will allow certain proteins, positively charged ones, to be inserted, and connected to it, to become transporters, or mediators in action potentials and normal activities of cells. Finally, since fatty acids and cholesterol are associated with phospholipids, but have a tendency to be attracted to these particular two types, they tend to give the overall structure fluidity, but also permit  the inner leaflet to assume its particular circular shape around the cytoplasm. This is why the answer is D.

(protein)?
belka [17]

Answer:

Since, the original DNA sequence has not been provided, the mutation can be an insertion/deletion or a frameshift mutation.

  1. Mutated DNA
  2. Frameshift mutation/ insertion or deletion
  3. All the amino acids  changed after the  point mutation​

Explanation:

Frameshift Mutation:

  • A frameshift mutation is the alteration in the reading frame of the DNA due to the addition/deletion of one or two nucleotides.
  • This type of mutation moves the mRNA sequence one or two bases forwards or backwards which disrupts the three base codons sequence required for translation into proteins.
  • The CT at the end of the sequence is indicative of a frameshift in the DNA reading frame.
  • Frameshift mutation affect all amino acids in a polypeptide chain as all codons are moved one or two steps forwards or backwards.
