Explanation:

The structure of the human mouth are the

1) Teeth: They tear and grind food taken in into small pieces that are suitable for digestion

2) Tongue: They are responsible for positioning and mixing of food and also carry sensory receptors for taste

3) Palete: They help to separates the mouth from the nasal cavity, allowing separate passages for air and for food.

WHILE

The structure of the cat's mouth consist of

1) The tongue: This is an elongated muscular organ covered on the surface withs PAPILLAE. These papillae contain tiny holes or pores that lead to taste buds. The bulk of the tongue consists of muscle bundles mixed with connective (strong/tough) and adipose (fat) tissue. It has many blood vessels and bleeds profusely when lacerated. The tongue is surrounded by the openings of the ducts of the salivary glands, which pour their secretions (saliva) into the oral cavity.

2) Teeth

Cats have two sets of teeth:

1) Deciduous teeth(may be called temporary teeth)

2)The adult teeth: They are larger than the deciduous teeth. Each teeth consists of four types of tissue which includes pulp, dentin, enamel and cementum.

Other structures of the cat's mouth includes upper and lower jaw, cheeks and glands.

Which cellular environments is conducive to the formation of disulfide bonds within or between proteins?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The rough ER

Explanation:

Generally the formation of native  disulphide bond is essential for the folding and maturation of  proteins in the secretory pathways.These bonds are formed in the rough E.R, and also in the intramembrane of the mitochondria.

Basically an oxdative parthways is required  for the disulfide bond to form, while a reductive pathway is needed for the formation of isomers for non-native disulphide bonds. These oxidative pathways takes place in the rE.R

Generally the disulphide bonds is usually formed by oxidation of  two cysteines bonds. it does not occur in the cytoplasm because it is always in reduced state due to the presence of disulphide reductase. The same explains why it does not occur in the Nuclei
