<span>In cells, enzymes are proteins that are needed to lower the amount of energy required to start chemical.</span>
Enzymes are biological catalysts which accelerate chemical reactions (reactions are millions of times faster than without them). Every enzyme has an active site which binds substrates and converts them into products.
Answer:
It exposes rocks to increased rates of erosion and weathering. It limits the exposure of rocks to acid precipitation.
Explanation:
Answer:
Given:
Number of colonies on plate = 40
Amount of DNA used for transformation = 100ng
Volume of competent cells used = 100ul
Total volume = 1ml (1000ul)
Volume plated for growth = 200ul
The amount of cells transformed per 1 µg of DNA is called the transformation efficiency
(CFU is colony forming units) => (number of colonies on plate/ng of DNA plated) X 1000 ng/µg = CFU/µg of DNA
Amount of DNA used for plating = 100ng * (200/1000)
= 100ng * (1/5)
= 100/5 = 20ng
Efficiency calculation = 40 colonies / 20ng = 2 colonies/ng
(2 colonies/ng) * (1000 ng/µg) = 2000 CFU/ug DNA
Transformation efficiency = 2000 Transformants / ug DNA
= 2 x 10³ Transformants / ug DNA
Explanation:
Efficiency of transformation is highest in the 100 pg-1 ng range, so Low transformation efficiency could be because of high amount of DNA used for transformation.
