We need the options in order to answer
Answer:
I have identified <em>Escherichia coli </em>and<em> Bacillus sp.</em>
Explanation:
I obtained my sample from soil, in a park near my house. The common bacteria on soil are gram positive and gram negative.
I found rods, and some are gram positive and long. They others are gram negative and very small and short.
The color of the gram positive is a dark blue, almost purple, and they are big and abundant, they are almost in lines, so I think they are a species of <em>Bacillus.</em>
The gram negative bacteria are extremely small and they look hot pink. They are very probably enterobacteria, and the most common enterobacteria is <em>Escherichia coli</em>. They do not have a particular order of arrangement.
Answer:
OPTION b. "<em>The 3D shape of a protein is determined largely by the ribosome forming the protein" </em>
is NOT an accurate description of protein synthesis and folding.
Explanation:
<em>a. Many copies of a protein can be synthesized simultaneously from the same mRNA</em>. TRUE. As a ribosome moves along the mRNA chain synthesizing a new protein, another ribosome might follow it, synthesizing another protein from the same mRNA chain. And so on. So, at the same time, many ribosomes might be attached to the mRNA, synthesizing many copies of the protein, but at different development levels. The mRNA chain together with many ribosomes is called a <em>polyribosome</em>.
b. <em>The 3D shape of a protein is determined largely by the ribosome forming the protein</em>. FALSE. What determined the 3D structure of the protein is the amino acid sequence of that particular polypeptide. Each amino-acid has different properties (hydrophobic, hydrophilic, positively charged, negatively charged) and they interact with each other by different bonds that depend on those poperties. So the amino acids composing the proteins and their interaction, is what models the structure of the protein.
c. <em>The entire chain of amino acid exits the ribosome before it begins folding into its 3D shape</em>. TRUE. When the ribosome reaches the end codon, the elongation process has finished, and the new protein leaves the ribosome and is translocated to the RER lumen where it is going to get folded.
d. <em>The first encoded amino acid in every protein is methionine. </em>TRUE. Almost always, the first amino acid located by the tRNA is the methionine, codified by the initiation codon AUG. This amino acid is frequently eliminated at the end of the process.
Answer:
None of the options provided is correct but some are close
Explanation:
One of the ways in which a cell maintain homeostasis is by regulating what goes in and out of the cell through the cell membrane (which is a semi-permeable barrier). The amount of water is highly regulated by the cell in this case so as to regulate osmosis (movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration). Other substances regulated are oxygen and carbon dioxide.
NOTE: The cell <u>does not create water molecules neither does it use carbon dioxide to maintain homeostasis</u>, it rather regulates these two compounds.
