Answer:

Disulfide linkage/bond

Explanation:

The tertiary and quarternary structure of the protein is stabilized by Disulfide linkage which is formed between two thiol groups in the protein. 2-mercaptoethanol is a reducing agent that breaks this disulfide bond.  

A protein becomes denature when it loses its native configuration and becomes inactive. So as 2-mercaptoethanol breaks disulfide bond in protein it looses its native configuration and becomes denatured. 2-mercaptoethanol  is used in SDS-PAGE to separate protein subunits. Therefore the correct answer is Disulfide linkage/bond.

What is control, constants, independent and dependent variable, experimental and control group?
frosja888 [35]
1)Control Group - Group that does not receives the treatment.
2)Experimental Group - Group that receives the treatment.
3)Constant - The variable you keep the same.
4)Independent Variable - The variable you control.
5)Dependent Variable - It depends on the independent variable.

Example:
You want to know how much taller plants will grow with fertilizer. You do an experiment. Flower A receives fertilizer but flower B does not. Both flowers receive the same amount of water and sunlight. The control group would be flower B, the constants would sunlight and water, the independent variable would be the fertilizer., the dependent variable would be the plant's height, and the experimental group would be flower A.

Protein synthesis can be compared to building a doghouse. Sondra wanted to build a doghouse and found a book in the reference se
Nimfa-mama [501]

The correct answer is mRNA.

mRNA or messenger RNA is synthesized during the process of transcription, from DNA molecule which is used as a template. mRNA contains information about protein synthesis (translation) in the form of nucleotide triplets or codons.

In the example above: reference book is DNA molecule (template for copies), copies are mRNA, wood is amino acids (building blocks) and doghouse is protein.
