When first introduced by Fritz Lipmann in 1941, the term high-energy bond was considered a useful concept for describing the ene

rgetics of biochemical molecules and reactions. However, the term can lead to confusion when relating ideas about cellular energy metabolism to those of physical chemistry. To check out your own understanding, indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.

Answer:

To a physical chemist, high-energy bond means a vary stable bond that requires a lot of energy to break, where as to a biochemist, the term is likely to mean that a release of a lot of energy upon hydrolysis.

Explanation:

FALSE

Energy can be stored in special high-energy bonds in molecules such as ATP and is released when these bonds are broken no such thing as a high-energy bond, it’s all about the stability of reactant vs product or something to that effect.

The terminal phosphate of ATP is a high-energy phosphate that takes its high energy with it when it is hydrolyzed-The phosphate group doesn't posses any intrinsic energy of its own. The term high-energy applies only to the phosphoanhydride bond that links the phosphate group to the rest of the ATP molecule.

Phosphoester bonds are low-energy bonds beacuase they require less energy to break than the high-energy bonds of phosphoanhydrides.- the low-energy bonds require more energy to break, which is why less energy is released when such bonds are hydrolyzed.

TRUE:

The term high-energy molecule should be thought of as a characteristic of the reaction  that the molecule is involved in – not as an intrinsic property of a particular bond within the molecule.

At which point in mitosis does a cleavage furrow form?
Aliun [14]

In cell biology, the cleavage furrow is the indentation of the cell's surface that begins the progression of cleavage, by which animal and some algal cells undergo cytokinesis, the final splitting of the membrane, in the process of cell division.

Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease, results only when individuals possess two copies of the disease-causing allele.
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

a. Heterozygous individuals may pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to offspring.

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease  ---- Let say the recessive lethal diseases is s

∴ it only results when an individual posses two copies of the diseases-causing allele i.e two copies of the disease will be ss.

Now, when two hetrozygous individuals crossed , it is obvious that each can pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring.

Let show an illustration for the above statement.

Let the heterozygous individual be Ts, if Ts cross with another Ts;

we will have:

Ts × Ts

         T          s

T        TT        Ts

s        Ts          ss

the offspring are TT,Ts,Ts,ss

We can now see how the Heterozygous individuals pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring (Ts).

How is loss of biodiversity connected to extinction of organisms?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

In an ecosystem, everything is connected. All ecosystems have some form of food chain and symbiosis. This means that animals rely on each other for life. If one animal were to die then others would be negatively affected. Overall, this means that when biodiversity is lost it becomes harder for organisms to survive. For example, pandas rely on bamboo to survive. So, when it gets cut down and destroyed the pandas also suffer. Additionally, in ecosystems, a wide variety of organisms helps other living creates have more forms of survival. This shows how important biodiversity is.
