1. How do you know if a molecule is organic?

1 answer:

4 0

A compound is organic if it contains carbon covalently bonded to other atoms. Most often, the other atoms include hydrogen, oxygen, and/or nitrogen. A few carbon compounds, such as simple oxides (e.g. CO2) and cyanides (e.g. KCN) are excluded arbitrarily.

Match each function with the correct enzyme class.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

The correct matching pairs are:

1) - B)

2)- E)

3) - A)

4) - F)

Explanation:

Transferases (B): Transeferases is the class of enzyme that catalyzes reactions involving the transfer of certain functional groups. (1)

Example: Transaminase transfers nitrogenous groups

Isomerases (E): Isomerases is the class of enzyme that catalyzes isomerization reactions and intramolecular rearrangements. (2)

Example: Triosephosphate isomerase interconverts aldoses and ketoses

Oxidoreductases (A): Oxidoreductases is a class of enzyme that catalyzes redox reactions (3) which involves the simultaneous transfer of electron.

Example: Alcohol oxidoreductases acts on the alcohol functional group

Ligases (F): Ligases is a class of enzyme that catalyzes reactions involving chemical bond formation between two molecules. (4)

Example: DNA ligase joins DNA fragments

At the end of DNA replication, each of the two new DNA molecules is composed of which of the following? *

dybincka [34]

Answer:

(The result of DNA replication is two DNA molecules consisting of one new and one old chain of nucleotides. This is why DNA replication is described as semi-conservative, half of the chain is part of the original DNA molecule, half is brand new.)
