A membrane lipid is a compound which belongs to a group of (structurally similar to fats and oils) which form the double-layered surface of all cells (lipid bilayer). The three major classes of membrane lipids are phospholipids, glycolipids, and cholesterol.
The false statement is: (a) Transcriptional regulators usually interact with the sugar–phosphate backbone on the outside of the double helix to determine which DNA sequence to bind.
Transcriptional regulator or factor is protein with the ability to control and regulate gene expression at the transcription level by binding to DNA. Transcriptional factors have domain-DNA-binding domain which contains structural motif that recognizes DNA and it is responsible for the attachment to specific DNA sequence. It usually binds to the DNA major groove (hydrogen bonding) because it is less degenerate than that of the DNA minor groove.
Transcriptional factors also contain trans-activating domain for the binding of other proteins and signal-sensing domain for the detection of external signals.
Answer:
(i)
x= nucleus
y= chloroplasts
z= vacuole
(ii)
1) an animal cell does not contain a vacuole but a plant cell does
2) a plant cell contains chloroplasts but an animal cell does not
Answer:The might likely die.
Explanation:
Phloem and xylem tissues are the major conducting tissues in plant. Xylem conduct ( transports) water and minerals salts from the soil through the roots to all parts of the plant while phloem conducts manufactured food from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
Now, if the phloem of a seed plant is damaged and not functioning well, the manufactured food will not get to other parts of the plant where it is needed or supposed to be stored.
If the plant is no longer getting these nutrients, its growth and development will be affected. It might lead to the death of the plant.
