Motor proteins require energy in the form of ATP. ATP hydrolysis results in a conformational change that allows the protein to m

ove along microtubular tracks (pathways). What structural component of the motor protein contains the ATP binding site and, therefore, changes shape to enable movement?

Answer:

The correct answer will be- the head globular domain of the motor protein.

Explanation:

Motor proteins are a class of proteins which can move along the cytoskeletal system of the cell using a mechano-chemical mechanism which involves conformational change, filament binding and releasing.

The kinesin and myosin are two important motor proteins which move along the actin filaments by converting the chemical energy of the ATP into motion.

The structure of motor molecules contains two globular head domains which bind ATP and ATPase enzyme break down the ATP releasing energy utilized by the motor protein to move.

Thus, the head domain of the motor protein enables movement.

Which of the following types of receptors are located in the mouth?
kogti [31]

Answer:

B. only chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors

Explanation:

Receptors are chemical structures, that receive and transduce signals that may be integrated into biological systems.

Receptors that can be found in the  mouth include:  chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors.

<u>Chemoreceptors</u>

These are receptors that detects chemical stimuli, either molecules or ions dissolved in liquids. An example would be our taste buds in the mouth, because they respond to specific molecules or ions in our ingested food.

<u>Thermoreceptors</u> responds to changes in temperature. These receptors are present in the oral cavity, skin and hypothalamus.

Mechanoreceptors are receptors that respond to distortion of the plasma membrane that occurs due to touch, pressure, vibration, stretch, stress or strain . They can be found in the mucosae of ginviva (gum), cheek, tongue and soft and hard palate.

<u>Nociceptors</u> are receptor responds to painful stimuli. The purpose of nociceptors is to inform the body of injury, damage or threat of damage to body tissues  so that a response may be made. They can be found in the   tooth pulp and within dentine cavity.

Is smoking low-tar cigarettes a good idea?
kvasek [131]

Low tar cigarettes have been shown to be no safer than regular cigarettes, and smoking them does not lower the risk of cancer or other diseases.

I would say it's not a good idea

The final pattern you wish to obtain expresses the UASG-GFP construct only in cell C2. How will you drive UASG-GFP expression sp
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here, cell C-2 needs to express GFP and therefore, GAL4 should be functional in cell C-2. This can be achieved by expressing GAL4 in Regulatory DNA construct 3, and expressing GAL80, an inhibitor of GAL4 in Regulatory constructs 1 and 2. This arrangement expresses GAL4 in columns A and C, and inhibits GAL4 due to GAL80 expression in Columns A and B; and in rows 1 and 3.

Therefore, the only cell that expresses GAL4 is cell C-2.

The arrangement is:

1. Construct 1 should express GAL80

2. Construct 2 should express GAL80

3. Construct 3 should express GAL4

4. Construct 4 should not be used

The greatest difference in the concentration of respiratory gases is found in which of the following pairs of mammalian blood ve
diamong [38]

Answer:

The pulmonary vein and the jugular vein.

Explanation:

The greatest difference between the pulmonary vein and the jugular vein is that pulmonary vein takes oxygenated blood from both lungs towards the left atrium of heart while jugular vein takes the deoxygenated blood from head back towards right atrium of heart through superior vena cava.

So, the main difference is oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the above mentioned veins.
