What would likely happen to a cell treated with a compound that causes lysis (breakage) of peroxisomal membranes? Ca++ would lea

k out and trigger exocytosis. Proteins would leak out and fail to be secreted. Probably not much, because peroxisomes have pores in their membranes anyway. Proteins in the cytoplasm would be damaged from the release of compounds damaging to the cell.

Answer:

The correct answer is: Proteins in the cytoplasm would be damaged from the release of compounds damaging to the cell.

Explanation:

  • Peroxisome is an organelle that remains enclosed in a single membrane, made up of a lipid bilayer.
  • Eukaryotic cells possess them.
  • They produce and store a large number of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species like, hydrogen peroxide, super-oxide radical and nitrogen oxide radical.
  • These are necessary for catabolising or breaking down fatty acid molecules having long carbon chains by the process of beta oxidation.
  • They also contain enzymes that catalyse oxidation reactions, like D-amino acid oxidase, catalase and uric acid oxidase.
  • Rupture of the peroxisomal membrane will cause the release of these oxidative enzymes and oxidative radicals into the cytoplasm.
  • This will cause the oxidation of amino acids in the proteins resulting in the protein to get denatured, damaged and non-functional.

Which evidence supports the idea that life on Earth has continually evolved
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Fossils are the remains of long-dead organisms, preserved in rock. Because rocks are laid down in layers, one on top of the other, the fossil record is generally set out in date order: the oldest fossils are at the bottom. Running through the fossil record makes it clear that life has changed over time.

Explain why ecologists think the focus of conservation efforts should be ecosystems, not individual species?
Alecsey [184]

It depends on the species and its primary threats, there is no universal solution. Many South East Asian species are primarily threatened by poaching ("Empty forest syndrome"), whereas many "reptiles" and amphibians from Madagascar can apparently cope with fairly high levels of collection (e.g. Golden Mantella [Mantella aurantiaca]), while the loss of their often small habitat is the primary threat.
