What are TWO functions of citric acid in the feta cheese? What are the TWO functions of agar in the feta cheese?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The following are the two functions of citric acid in the feta cheese:  

1. Coagulation, that is, the chemical reaction of citric acid with proteins in milk leads to separation of curd and whey.  

2. The citric acid functions as a chelating agent, which is required for syneresis, that is, for controlling the moisture content.  

The following are the two functions of agar in the feta cheese:

1. Feta means to slice, and agar offers sliceable texture to the feta cheese as it produces a solid gel-like composition.  

2. It is a vegetarian alternative for gelatin and exhibits higher gelling properties.

What are the characteristics of stem cells
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

Long-term Self-Renewal: Stem cells are capable of division while remaining unspecialized.

Differentiation : Stem cells can divide asymmetrically, where one stem cell divides into two cells that have different cellular fates.

Induced Pluripotency : Stem cells that have been artificially created from specialized cells are called induced pluripotent stem cells.

Considerations : Due to their unspecialized nature, stem cells have a large research potential. The most pluripotent stem cells derive from the human embryo.

How does ATP enable transport proteins to move ions across a cell menbrane?
balandron [24]

Answer:

ATP uses the energy from ATP hydrolysis and moves ions across the membranes.

Explanation:

  • The mechanism of transportation of proteins and ions across cell membrane uses the ATPase that consume the energy from ATP hydrolysis and moves the small molecules across the cell membrane.
  • The energy is used against a established electric potential or simply the chemical concentration gradient.
  • This mechanism of transportation of ions is the example of active transport and a coupled chemical reaction.
