How can you tell the difference between a physical and a chemical property? (in your own words)

Biology

AleksAgata [21]3 years ago

Answer:

A physical property is any property that is measurable, whose value describes a state of a physical system. The changes in the physical properties of a system can be used to describe its changes between momentary states. Physical properties are often referred to as observables. They are not modal properties

A chemical property is any of a material's properties that becomes evident during, or after, a chemical reaction; that is, any quality that can be established only by changing a substance's chemical identity

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (a yeast species) mutants are available that grow on pyruvate or ethanol, but not sugars or glycerol.
mezya [45]

Answer:

The enzyme is the pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

The designated enzyme can only grow in pyruvate or in ethanol. They are said to be in anaerobic conditions. If the end product of glycolysis is pyruvate and the enzyme that transforms phosphoenol pyruvate into pyruvate is called pyruvate kinase. In a reaction under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate is transformed into ethanol. So if the pyruvate kinase enzyme is mutated, pyruvate cannot be transformed into ethanol and Saccharomyces cerevisiae could not survive in that medium.

Due to the fact that we possess enzymes that break down the alpha linkages in starch, the glucose molecules that make up amylose
dedylja [7]

The answer is: A. True

Complex sugars or polysaccharides are composed of basic units called monosaccharides that are linked via  glycosidic bonds. Glycosidic bond is formed through condensation reactions (water is released) that occur between a hydroxyl (OH) oxygen atom on one sugar and the α-anomeric form of C-1 on the other. There are are two types of glycosidic bonds:

- 1,4 alpha ( the OH is below the glucose ring)

- 1,4 beta glycosidic bonds (the OH is above the glucose ring)

Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down starch into smaller glucose molecules, it act on α-1,4-glycosidic bonds and it works in mouth where the digestion begins (salivary amylase) . Maltase breaks down maltose into glucose; sucrase, breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose; and lactase, which breaks down lactose into glucose and galactose work in small intestine and also act on α-1,4-glycosidic bonds.

The Prostate gland

The prostate is a walnut-sized organ that surrounds the first part of the urethra. It is located between the bladder and the penis. Semen is formed by the prostate by combining a thick white fluid it initially produced with the sperm from the testicles. It also produces an antibiotic protein known as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) that changes the semen into liquid.

the allele for yellow peas is dominant to the allele for green peas. how would you represent the alleles of a plant that is hete
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: The alleles of a plant that is heterozygous for seed color can be represented as Y for dominant allele for yellow seed and y for recessive allele for green seed.

Explanation: A plant that is heterozygous for seed colour has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for seed colour. If Y represents the dominant allele for yellow seed colour and y represents the recessive allele for green seed colour, therefore the plant has a genotype of Yy. A dominant allele is one that has the ability to mask the effect of a recessive allele while a recessive allele is one whose effect is masked by a dominant allele. Dominant alleles are denoted with upper cases while recessive alleles are denoted with lower cases. A plant that is heterozygous for seed colour with genotype Yy will manifest outwardly as Yellow seed colour due to the presence of the dominant allele Y.
