Answers:

A) The membranes of the Chloroplast are the

1) Thylakoid membrane 2) Envelope membrane

B) Calvin cycle occurs within the stroma, while light reactions occur within the thylakoid membrane.

Explanation:

Generally, the chloroplast is made up of the; <u>Thylakoid membrane and Envelop membrane</u>. The thylakoid membrane is basically the region for light absorption, thus making it the site for light reactions within the chloroplast.

Calvin cycle, which occurs in the stroma, involves light independent reactions. It occurs shortly after the light-dependent reactions, and further breaks down ATP and NADPH, products of the light reactions.

The stroma is located outside the thylakoid membrane.

For the remaining listed organelles:

1) The Cytosol- It’s the liquid space within the cell. The chloroplast can be found floating within the cytosol of any involved plant cell.

2) Thylakoid space- The space within the thylakoid.

Why do X-linked traits appear more often in males

Tpy6a [65]

X - linked traits appear more often in males because males only have one x chromosome. One copy of an x - linked trait is all that a male would need to possess that trait. Females have two x chromosomes, so they would require 2 copies of the x - linked trait in order to possess it.

What two types of amino acid sequences are needed in a protein to mediate post-translational farnesylation?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Post translation farnesylation may be defined as a type of prenylation in which the isoprenyl group is added to the cysteine residues of the protein. This modification is important for protein and membrane interaction.

Basically two types of amino acid are required for the farsenylation modification. The signal peptide sequence is the short amino acid sequence that targets the ribosome in the endoplasmic reticulum. The sequence is generally lysine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and leucine. The second sequence must be Caax (C is cysteine, a is aliphatic amino acid and X consists of C terminal amino acid.
