The tertiary structure of a protein is the:________. a. organization of a polypeptide into a corkscrew-like shape or a zigzag fo
Setler [38]

Answer:

e. unique three-dimensional shape of the fully folded polypeptide.

Explanation:

The tertiary structure of a protein is the unique three-dimensional structure which emanates from the interaction between the “R groups” of the several amino acids that make up the polypeptide. Hydrogen bonding is one of the interactions that occur that gives the protein this structure. Other interactions are ionic bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, hydrophobic interactions, among others. The function of a protein is dependent on its tertiary structure, as a disruption of the tertiary structure causes a protein to be denatured, thereby rendering the protein not functional.

A plasmid contains the gene for tetracycline resistance and a lacz gene that has a restriction site in it. Foreign dna has the s
tester [92]

Answer:

The colonies are carrying the resistance genes from plasmids

Explanation:

Bacteria can acquire beneficial characteristics that they didn’t have. One way for these is through plasmids, which ones are little fragments of DNA that usually contains resistance genes (for antibiotics, disinfectants, heavy metals, etc.) or other capacities, like the ability to use some substances (for example sugars).

In this specific situation, we already know that the plasmid carrying genes for tetracycline resistance and the <em>lacZ</em> gene.  

A little explanation:

Tetracycline is an antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth and kills the bacteria.  The bacteria can “fight” to this antibiotic if it has a resistant gene, the result is that the antibiotic can’t affect the bacteria and survive.  An analogy is like a Police Officer (bacteria) that have a bulletproof vest (tetracycline-resistant gene) so the bullets (tetracycline) didn’t affect the police.

In the case of X-gal, is a compound consisting primarily in one sugar called galactose. Not all bacteria can eat galactose, they need an enzyme called β- galactosidase (comes from <em>lacZ</em> gene) that helps the bacteria “eat” the sugar (cuts the sugar in little pieces so the bacteria can eat).  

Then, as the bacterial colonies can grow in the medium with tetracycline and X-gal,  we know that those bacteria are carrying the resistance genes for tetracycline (does not affect the bacteria) and the <em>lacZ</em> gene (bacteria produce β- galactosidase that cuts galactose). These genes are coming from the plasmids because we already know that the plasmid carries these genes and not from the exogenous DNA.
