Which of the following statements regarding proteoglycans is FALSE? Proteoglycans help tissues resist mechanical compression. Pr

oteoglycans are a major component of compact, dense connective tissues like bone. The negative charge associated with proteoglycans attracts cations, which cause water to be sucked into the extracellular matrix. Proteoglycans are comprised of a core proteins with many glycosaminoglycan polysaccharide chains covalently linked to it. The glycosaminoglycans are very hydrophilic and therefore extend out to fill a large amount of space in the extracellular matrix.

Answer:

 Proteoglycans are a major component of compact connective tissues but are relatively unimportant in watery tissues such as the jellylike substance in the interior of the eye.

Explanation:

these are protein that is divided into two classes which are  called large ans small Proteoglycans.

The large proteoglycans has a large number of highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan side-chains that tends to hold water and whereby making the tendon to resist compression while the  small proteoglycans are known to have a relationship with collagen fibrils which are known to regulate collagen fibril diameters. they help in signal regulation  usually  from the angle of intracellular compartments. the are known great for their large diversity especially in terms of different cores and different numbers of GAGs with different lengths and composition.

Which of the following mutations could lead to constitutive expression of the genes of the lac operon? View Available Hint(s) Wh
Molodets [167]

Options for part A are as follows:

A) A mutation in the operator sequence

B) A mutation in the lac-Z gene

C) A mutation in the lac-Y gene

D) A super repressor mutation

Answer:

The correct answer:

Part a - A mutation in the operator sequence

Part b - It ensures that a cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment

Part C. true.

Explanation:

part a:

If there is a mutation in the operator sequence leads to prevent binding of the repressor which leads to allowing constitutive expression of the genes various conditions.

part b:

The biological role of the lac operon makes sure that the cell dedicates resources to the production of enzymes involved in lactose metabolism only when lactose is available in the environment

Part c:

RNA polymerase cannot transcribe the structural genes due to the repressor binds to the lac operator, therefore, the proper function of the lac operon is possible when the placement of the operator sequence between the promotor and the structural genes.
